Guess I would be lying if I said I wasnt' inspired by into the wild, but this summer I am gonna live literally in the wild.

A good friend of mine has been trying to get me to do this for a few years...He's been reading about a guy named Tom Brown Jr, who can literally be dropped off anywhere on the planet with just his clothes and survive, doesn't even need a knife/lighter/food/water.

I used to get so pissed off at the establishment, used to be so angry at everything. Now I just feel helpless.

So we're leaving. If all goes well we won't be coming back.

    Sweet, as long as it doesn't turn out like deliverance, mind if I come along?

    Where you planning on hitting it?
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Even Tom Browne came back. I read a couple of his books many, many moons ago. His winter alone in Rocky Mountain National Park* is quite a story. Killed a deer with his bare hands (and a knife, if i remember right).
    Now, he's America's top tracker. The FBI will call on him for abduction/kidnapping/missing persons type cases.

    *pretty sure it was RMNP

    Yea Tom Brown is the man. I've read a few of his books-apparently he tracked an armed Navy Seal that went psychotic and brought him back naked. Good stories..but he also has a few books that read like textbooks..on how to survive in the wild, which I have. Gonna take his survival course in the spring.
