10 Essentials for Wilderness Survival


 The number one most important thing I make sure to bring is a knife. They have so many uses in every day camp activities and life in general. If you find yourself in a survival situation, your chances of survival are infinitely increased with a knife. I always have a pocket knife on me for everyday use and camping.

Fixed blade knives are ideal. They are more durable and resilient than folding knives as they do not have mechanical movement. They are also better for cutting large objects such as branches. Folding knives are great for a
backup and less demanding tasks.

Uses:

- cutting rope
- creating weapons
- opening packages
- boredom relief
- creating fire starters (ie: bow drill)
- building emergency shelters (cutting branches, cutting tarp, etc)
- cutting cloth for bandages (if you don't have a first aid kit)
- cutting bandages
- so much more; you discover many more uses through experience

The Nanny State-We love our government

Staying Off Gov’t Spy Radar

 Average Americans are becoming more and like the characters in a spy movie; they are being tracked all the time. Law enforcement agencies, local governments, intelligence agencies, phone companies, banks, Internet companies, and many others are trying to track us. Big government tracks us to monitor our movements while big...


 

DETROIT – Philippine tourist observed “parts of the city were like shanty towns back home, the only difference is the abandoned building are bigger.’ Many parts resemble the post-apocolyptic movie Mad Max.  Run by one party for 50 years, Detroit per capita income is now $13,969 – less than the average income of a resident of Botswana or Belarus

Survival Cheat Sheet from David Morris

 

Gather crucial
documents and take a few specific steps to preserve your
identity and wealth through any disaster. Here's a quick
peek:

Some items to have copies of (digital and/or physical) in
case of disaster...

* Driver's license

* mortgage note/deed to property

* bank account numbers and balances

* car registration

* insurance paperwork

* passport

* any investment documentation

* As many medical documents as you have

Make digital copies for thumb drives and physical copies to
place in a safe, secure spot like at a relative's house, a
safety deposit box, an attic or crawlspace. In the course,
I'll cover the best tools to use to get this done...even if
you don't have a scanner or know what a thumb drive is.

Remember to encrypt the digital copies to protect your
sensitive information.
