Don't go naked into the woods... you'll be cold, and you might get arrested.
Take the equipment along as a back-up, but try not to use it. Get that fire going with a fire bow, make a shelter from what's around you instead of what's on your back ( or in your pocket ), take the time to boil water instead of using chemical gadgets. Have some FUN under controled conditions, then when you need the skills, you've already "been there, done that".
