Just curious, has anyone thought about doing a hunter gatherer style hike. Bring only the food that you would need to safely make it off the trail, and try to survive by only eating what you get off the trail?
I have thought about trying to put together such a hike one fall on the Ouchita trail in Oklahoma, and I just wanted some input on how stupid or brilliant this idea is.
We'd put a lot of research into what plants we could eat, then carry a .22 caliber rifle, and a fishing poll.
Thoughts?
