I browse this part of the Forum just about daily as part of my routine work day, and I see lots of checklists and VERY helpful information. I was thinking about some questions I had and will pose to the Masses:
Has anyone ever tried "Trapping Techniques" like the ones in the Army Survival Manual (http://www.equipped.org/21-76/ch8.pdf) any luck, any ideas, any suggestions? I was thinking about trying a few, but I am afraid of snaring a Neighborhood cat!
How many people have tried a 3 day hike, with just a BOB whether single or in a group? Its something I've often wanted to do, but no one in my Prep Circle has really ever wanted to try it. And as an offshoot of that question:
Where would a good place to try a 3 day BOB Hike? I might be over thinking it, but I know that state forests generally frown upon creating fires, trapping, fishing and whatnot. I live in SE Mass, (Attleboro) where they really aren't any woods to do any major wilderness hiking. And having a Mass LTC, I dont know what the surrounding states would say about me armed hiking through their woods...
Just wanted to throw some questions out there, maybe start a conversation, or this thread will have a slow death and die out peacefully. Thanks!
