Are you prepared to survive off the grid?

i think I could do okay. ive lived as a wild man for about a month, just brought a bunch of rice and beans and canned chicken and stuff. supplemented my diet with wild greens and berries.
If I could bring like 100$ worth of goods I could survive a half a year off that I bet.
if I had to survive just off foraging and hunting I could probably last a month or two in summer before starving like Chris McCandless.

I can't imagine a more loose usage of the word "planning".

The area they chose was over 8,500 ft ASL, the nearest town to them was at 8,500 ft so they likely were closer to 10,000ft at the camp location. The climate of the area (at just 8,500 ft) would be a dry subarctic climate with an average winter low of around -8F (-22C) with occasional cold snaps driving the temps to -40F (-40C), the growing season only lasts about 60 days, the average winter season snowfall (at the nearest city at 8,500 ft) is 160 inches. Even with winter temp inversions the campsite location climate was probably worse than that. They chose a really really bad location and season to be completely unprepared without an escape plan.

What happened to the prepper general? There was some polish guy doing some shit. Before some autist complains, prepping and going off grid go hand in hand.
