You know, it's funny, but I reckon a lot of people overlook the value of food preservation in a survival situation. Sure, hunting, fishing, and foraging are excellent skills to have, but what happens when the game runs thin or edible

I'd have to agree about food preservation, but I also think mental fortitude doesn't get enough credit. Surviving isn't all about how many knots you can tie or fires you can start - it's about how you cope when you're alone, scared, or under pressure. You can know all the survival skills in the world but if you can't keep your cool in a crisis, it won't mean a hill of beans.
