I think that I cannot preserve my health and spirits, unless I spend four hours a day at least – and it is commonly more than that – sauntering through the woods and over the hills and fields, absolutely free from all worldly engagements.
Henry David Thoreau

There is nowhere on the planet that is immune to peoples trash, in Survival Situations you must utilize everything you can find. With a little bit of work and imagination you can find a number of things that you can make use of.

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
-Henry David Thoreau

Have you really lived?

Hiking is the best workout!… You can hike for three hours and not even realize you’re working out.  And, hiking alone lets me have some time to myself.
Jamie Luner
