Remember that Natives used to live there. Define training though. I've spent over $10,000 dollars in training and spent as much time as possible using the skills.

I've spent time with only a knife and the clothes on my back.I would say I'd have a 50% chance of making it for a year by myself if I was dropped off in the early summer or spring. If I was dropped off in the early winter I'd say it drops off to 3% or so....and I would likely make a POW look like a stuffed turkey.

I'm talking about the areas south of Timmons mind you. Much further north than that there isn't as much variation in flora and I wouldn't feel as comfortable with my odds.

If you have the skills you're set. Know that there are STILL natives living as hunter gatherers up there.
