Wild Berries Of Idaho (Part two)
In a continuation of an earlier article my mother has been kind enough to provide a part two. I hope you enjoy. My mother tapered off the full number of huckleberry recipes, but if you want them put a note in the bottom and I’ll get her in contact with you. We have an abundance […]
Pine Nuts
We didn’t get these very often growing up because we didn’t know how to harvest them, and I think my parents were unfamiliar with these nuts. I’ve since developed quite a taste for them that drew my curiosity into what trees they come from and how to harvest them and how are they harvested. There […]
Warm Wet Wool
I got turned onto wool for outdoor socks from what my brothers had told me and what I learned studying the Vikings. For thousands of years wool has been used by people for socks, pants, and leg wraps. Today, many of our best survival socks are total or part wool blends. One of the reasons […]
Edible & Medicinal Plants of the Rockies
My brother wrote me a fine book review on this piece of literature. I’ve glanced at this book in the past, as my brother was staying here and we had a habit of unpacking and repacking our bug-out-bags when we got bored, and this book was always packed in a handily retrievable location. I’ve added […]

I got it for my birthday. I am so excited to develop my new found hobby of eating wild plants! There is a guy up […]

Another good article from my brother. I love this photo, found it on the Tourism Intelligence Agency website while doing a little reading. Enjoy the read. Jon This is a vague list of items, or categories of items, that you should want to put in your B.o.B. (bug out bag), your car, retreat, or anywhere they […]
10 Items to Stock Up On
My brother wrote this article for me as a response to a video he looked into. While the video was less than impressive it did lead to some great conversation between the two of us. Enjoy. Jon The other day while enjoying some morning coffee and browsing the internet I stumbled upon a headline […]
