You often hear people say that if the SHTF that they will simply “live off the land”. Dr. Nicole Apelian had the opportunity to test her skills on the TV show “Alone” on the History Channel ( https://www.history.com/shows/alone/season-5/episode-0). Here is what she ate alone on Vancouver Island for 57 days. https://loadoutroom.com/50245/survival- ... -it-looks/She teaches classes in Raymond WA https://www.nicoleapelian.com/

Great find. Her website is bookmarked now in my browser and looks like a wealth of information, (noted after a short review)

I always laugh when someone says "I will just live off the land". When you make a shelter and post up in a spot, your human footprint becomes permanent and all the game leaves your area. Unless you become a Nomad, it might be best to adjust your plans.

The naked part is just a gimmick hook, plus most of the people they feature I don't want to see naked (thank god for the blurring). How likely are we going to get in a survival situation in the places they go to? Alone is not so much about the location, but the mental aspect of surviving. Most people that tag out early are due to medical, or mental (missing family). Being in the military I don't have a lot of sympathy for the ones that tag out for missing family though. We have to deploy on a regular basis for 6-12 months. So these people that get all boohoo after only 30 days to me are a joke.
