And you were willing to do this, where would you spend say a month, three months, six months or a year in solitude? Just you and a good dog no other human beings around to help if you got into trouble.
A tent, sleeping bag a fry pan and a pot, a rifle and a good knife plus a fork and spoon to eat with and a fishing rod. Maybe twenty pounds of the food of your choice for the lean days. Otherwise you plan to hunt and fish for your tucker. You can take a boat if you plan to be on or near a lake or river, or the ocean.
How long do you think a modern day man would last out there, well I don't know about me but it would be fun for a while just to tackle this. Along with your dog and whatever surrounds you in nature, sounds cool huh?
There are some islands off Georgetown SC that the Wife and I have been to many times. Rarely did we ever see another boat in those areas, wild and remote but fish, oysters, clams and crabs are abundant. Only thing wrong with that area, the skeeters will tote you off, especially at night and the sand gnats when the wind is light. Maybe in the Great Pee Dee River swamp along the banks of the Great Pee Dee River, you won't starve there but again the little critters will eat you. There are some islands on Santee-Cooper's lake Marion that are rather remote they are actually declared a wilderness area by the state of SC. Mean critters there as well and the Raccoons will steal your food unless it locked down tight.
Just a thought an idea I got for a post from another member who stated a year in solitude away from everything would be good. Well, I don't want to be too far from everything.
I don't want to go too far from civilization just in case something happens.
