Sorry, I'm old school. I like to learn new skills and be self-reliant in the wilderness, not just make a phone call and wait for AAA to come pick me up.
Whatever happened to the "American spirit" of adventure, self-reliance, taking on the challenge?
I thought we could start a discussion about survival skills, tools, tecniques, and stories. I didn't expect "Go buy a phone and leave it to the professionals." Remember, your talking to a Canadian. Up here, the show "Survivor" is just an average camping trip. Blessings JAK, I have never seen survivor, but I am not a Grizzly Adams kind of guy. I like the satellite phone idea.

You guys are too rugged for me.
I love visiting nature, but, I am lousy at living in it.

I'm doing a survival shoot for the History Channel starting next week. Will be in the wilderness alone for several months. It will air next Spring.

I wish I had such a vacation as that. But why do you pick such a time of year? Right now, things are ripe...but you'll have some winter to weather. May God somehow use this to witness for Him. God bless, Green Cochoa.
We can receive of heaven's light only as we are willing to be emptied of self. We can discern the character of God, and accept Christ by faith, only as we consent to the bringing into captivity of every thought to the obedience of Christ. And to all who do this, the Holy Spirit is given without measure. In Christ "dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in Him." [Colossians 2:9, 10.] {GW 57.1} -- Ellen White.

"Ripe" in the wilderness? Think he'll be in a tropical climate? Not much ripe in the wilderness. Blueberries in some places some times of the year. Gooseberries other places and times. I think "survival" means survival, not picking fruit off the trees and lounging in shorts in a hammock. It would be my guess the History channel wants some survival demonstration. Like finding food and shelter where the typical short wearing hammock type of person would not find it.

I have been watching him on there over the last couple of weeks. I wouldn't be surprised that he lasted the longest and won the $500,000.00
