I think you do have a point! If we dont take care of our wilderness while in "training", there wont be much left when we need it in a serious situation!<br>I would say that low-impact camping, and low-impact living, goes hand in hand with survival. We only have one earth, so lets be carefull with the one we got!<br>The only drawback I can think of is the extra weight to carry around. I would, if possible, build a stonelined fireplace.<br><br>Stefan<br><br>
