Once you learn how to live in the wild, head to some real forest. Its not easy, and its going to be rough, and you dont need a gun which is illegal. I spent over 2 months with a freind alone in the wild, and it was amazing, breathtaking, and i wouldnt have changed anything in the world for it. All you have to do is research, and be safe. I teach survial in the woods, so please, do not read into the wild, and run out to the woods. This is NOT safe. Ive been at 10,000 feet in august, on a 2 foot rock wall, and had a huge snow storm and 25 degree weather and 50 mph winds come ripping down the valley in the tetons, you need to be able to make shelter fast, and keep warm, also bears. The area im talking about is the national forests around yellowstone, other then alsaka, it is the most remote area in the lower 48. I spent 2 months in the wind river range, the bridger teton national forest, the shoshone national forest, and the caribou targhee national forest, all on wiki, and all over a million acres, we literally hitchhiked 20 miles, and walked in, you need to be safe! ask me questions if you want to know more what you need to have
Warm clothing.
Carbs, rice, potatoes.
Fly flishing gear and know how to do this, the streams are loaded with huge fish, we eat fish ever night, it was amazing
No a little rock climbing, because your gonna wanna climb a mountain
Bear spray, i have had to bear spray 2 bears, i always carry a .45 caliber ruger, but the bear spray i use first, and it has worked twice without having to put rounds into the bear. you would be fine with a 15 dollar bottle on any animals.
You will be amazed with the beauty of this place. The hidden valleys.
The two of us found 1750 dollars in gold flakes panning for gold when we were bored out there in the streams way up in the mountains in the wind river range.
ENJOY. BE SAFE.
Also, have a map of the area and a compass, its impossible to get lost with a little detail and knowing how to use it, very simple, you can hike in off trail
2 months. thousands of bears, fish, moose, wolves, eagles, snakes, not one human. i cant wait for this summer.
