Why Hunt, Trap, Forage Alone is Pure Bushcraft Fantasy

Ep 212: The belief that you can catch, forage, or kill all your food and survive out in the woods for any real length of time is one of the biggest lies perpetuated by so-called bushcraft & survival guys today. It sounds great, but in reality it reveals that the people endorsing this myth have no idea what they're talking about, because they never travel any distance on foot in unfamiliar areas - meaning, they never leave their own back yards. It's hard to understand the real nature of what is needed in a bug-out bag, go bag, emergency bag, until you've actually put yourself into situations that mimic the reality of traveling on foot, the real expenditure of calories, and the finite nature of energy. Here I lay out why the self-sufficient fantasies don't hold up and why pretending it does can leave you in a bad spot fast. No sugarcoating — just practical talk about what the backcountry actually offers today.
