Keep in mind (other threads have touched on this more than enough). Making do with what I had (for the most part). NOT planning on towns/repair stops/motels/hostels/civilization. This is what I will survive off of. Something breaks - I'd better fix it - I break - I'd better press on. I need juice for camera/phone - wait until food resupply day. Only time civilization will see me is when I'm resupplying food, pickup up a mail drop, or hanging with others in the woods!
