Personal thoughts: One person can do 30-50 miles in two days or so in a woods setting if really moving (I've done 50 in 5 days at a relaxed pace with others). My thought would be you want to spend the least amount of time "surviving" as possible, so I would try to get to the early pickup point as fast as I can. I'd take enough water (or the means to get it) , a short gun (pistol), a machete, maybe a saw, comfortable shoes, a compass/gps, a few compressed food bars, clothing I can loose if the climate is warm, maybe a nightvision setup so I can keep moving at night. I'd try to stay light and move fast to the point. Basically, why other people are still trying to figure out what to do I would already be half way there. No reason to mess with others if you don't have to, in a situation like this I wouldn't trust anyone. Again, that is just me.
