>>1498831-When you're injured in such a way that you couldn't make the journey.
-When you're lost in an unfamiliar wilderness.
-When you've lost the rest of your equipment.
I mean, that comment is obvious bait, but I sincerely hope you're not so complacent as to just assume it could never happen to you. I am especially obligated, because motocamping involves traveling unwalkable distances at 15-110 mph. A regular backpacker doesn't risk injury as often, but they do share the risk of getting lost when on ungroomed terrain. By choice or accident.
And I guess "survivalist" is a way to describe finding water and sheltering in place. Because if you're deep enough in for them to have to search, it makes you easier to find. Of course you would simply go home if you had the ability.
>Has never been lost/broken/whatever, but is prepared for it anyways. What a fag.You seem to be pretending to direct experience, but I'd assume that nobody here has. The only pretense I maintain is using these skills for fun.
