Part of basic survival is to use items around you and if that means you have a charged cell phone and reception then 911 would qualify. Next thing would be to stay put and make yourself comfortable and wait for help to arrive.mossycamo said:that is the mind set of people today. someone else will take care of you.![]()

A lot of Pa hunters don't need a survival course. When they only spend a couple hours in the woods, have a gallon of coffee, a dozen donuts and can see the tail lights on the back of their pick-up at all times.

Cell phones are helpful, but I agree if your lost sit tight, start a big fire for heat and something that can be spotted from the air.
Maybe not as manly story to tell but making that 911 call sure beats spending a couple days in the woods cold and hungry. Compass will tell me what direction Im heading but a GPS will show me what is near me.

Ha, really getting too old to post survival or hunting posts. Survival has changed too much.
Had a neighbor who handled a winter power failure by checking into a motel out of the power failure area.
We have an area park surrounded by thousands. On a day under 40 degrees they'll be ten and maybe five people enjoying the cold weather.
"Normal" people just avoid cold weather these days, in this area. But then cold days in the area never got publisized. That's how the modern people handle the cold.

When I worked for the US Gov I went through Survival School. We were dropped of in Fort Circle Park in the Anacostia section of Washington DC at 1:00 AM and had to make our way on foot back to Alexandria, VA without being stabbed, shot or otherwise. Lost some good people that night....
