I've taken it to the point in my mind where if I need to get moving I know where I'll go, it's far but there's food, water and enough resources to sustain me.

You know it's also got a lot to do with who ends up coming with. Fair enough there will be those individuals that are automatically in the mix, be it your wife, children, family or friends. But the thing is, as well as you know somebody, they could be completely different in a survival situation.

I have on many occasions taken folks out for a few days just to see how they would handle 'roughing it' and to be honest very few performed as well as they claimed they would. Now obviously it's a wake-up call for a lot people especially the men, when after day 2 it's 'not funny' anymore... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Also I think there's that, that you think of yourself and there's that, that you know of yourself... The trick is finding the middle ground and being able to live with it... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />

Also you eventually will get to the point where as in any survival situation you will have the hunters, those that care and medicate, those that sit and do nothing and so forth. Having to deal with that and not let it affect the group... Seeing past the guy/girl who sleeps while others work, all these things become possible reasons to explode and 'loose it'... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />
