  • Would you be afraid to walk into the wilderness at night by yourself?

    How do you think the explores felt when they explored the world?Would you be afraid to walk into the wilderness at night by yourself?
    I do it all the time.
    they weren't by themselvesWould you be afraid to walk into the wilderness at night by yourself?
    No, well it depends where and what woods
    Depends upon what kind of wildlife inhabits the local terrain. Most explorers explore during the day.
    The explorers would of probably felt ecstatic at being able to explore the world, afterall, they wouldn't of chose to do it had they not been interested in finding new things (",)

    What man had a tree named for him and died while exploring the Washington wilderness?

    There is no "Washington Wilderness," so maybe you mean the Mount Washington Wilderness? The Douglas Fir, which is common there, was named after biologist and explorer David Douglas. (Douglas Fir is not its official botanical name, but its common name.) I am not sure he died there, but he well may have.

    What should a Born Again Christian do in wilderness?

    when you come to know that the devil is common place whether in the church or ouside of it?What should a Born Again Christian do in wilderness?
    Pray they have a good GPS service and can find a connection for their cellphones, because the animals are surely not going to talk to them much less give them directions back to their car.
    Be lunch for a hungry bear, hopefully.What should a Born Again Christian do in wilderness?
    ignore evil and say prayers to God
    Pray. plan and simple :-)
    borrow some magic moron underwear
    Turn to God with all your burdens in prayer. Ask for protection and guidance or for all your needs.

    Rev. TomCat
    There is no devil. If there is a devil it dwells within you. Everyone has the potential for good and evil. You can choose to be good or evil. A church cannot save you if it's members are not sincere. It may help you progess on the path of righteousness, but true salvation lies within. Know yourself my friend.
    get down on your knees and pray to God
    Yes, the Prince of the power of the air is everywhere: in church and outside the church. Even Jesus himself dealt with this: Judas was among the 12 disciples!



    Study God's Word and endeavor to possess the mind of Christ Jesus and DO what He says. This is what we are to do while sojourners on this present earth.

    Be at peace and be a light in a lost and dying world.
    love all, show mercy and compassion, and forgive all even your enemies.

    feed the hungry, take care of the widowed and orphaned, give a freezing man your coat, visit the sick, give a thirsty man a drink of water. these things are the truth of God's love.

    Peace!!
    Stay there, and avoid bothering decent people.

    Is it legal to live in the wilderness of Colorado?

    I want to live primitively in the rockies of colorado but i dont want to buy land or any of that. i just want to go out and live the way my ancesstors did long ago. hunting and fishing for food and making my own shelter and clothes, etc. what laws would i have to follow or are there any?Is it legal to live in the wilderness of Colorado?
    Actually there are books on this stuff. But I would look more towards Montana. There is more space than Colorado for government land. That means more land to lose yourself in. Go to www.miltiaof montana.com and look at the survival books they sell. There was a guy that posted here a few months back that did it for a couple of years and was giving advice out. I will try to find the link if I can.
    wow, ignorance is bliss and rampant i see by many of the answers here.

    in colorado (as with many other states) there is vast areas of national forest. go to the government website for specific info but keep in mind they do not encourage or promote living in forest so they will not mention it specifically.. in most national forest land they ask you (sometimes making it "sound" or "read" like a rule) to register for back country camping but there is no rule against not registering and it is 100% free to camp. i know you are talking about living, but for rules you will only find info on camping which you would essentially being camping for a very long time. i believ there is a limit how long you can stay at one spot and you are not allowed to build structures or cut live trees. it is a vast area though and easy to hide a small shelter. to really stick to the rules you would probably have to move every 30 days, only burn and use dead/fallen wood, maintain a hunting and fishing license and follow seasonal %26amp; limit rules for both. it is perfectly legal to live there but not easy to do so if you follow the laws exactly. if you go deep enough it is easily conceivable that you could do whatever you want and never see another human for years on end. the 2 big things that would attract atention is suspicion of poaching indicated by gunfire heard in july and fear of forest fire indicated by smoke from your campfire being too big and where no people are thought to be camping. outside of those 2 things nobody in forest service or state wildlife offices really care about one person may or may not be doing 100 miles from any trail, road, or building in the national forestIs it legal to live in the wilderness of Colorado?
    You have to follow the same laws if you were living in a town or city. You either have to own the land or get permission from the landowner. As far as fishing and hunting, you would need to get licenses and follow the seasons.
    as far as i know, you can on camping ground (if fees apply, you must pay them) but elsewhere in an undesignated area no because it's government property and you aren't a paying tenant.

  • How long could someone survive in the wilderness with a dog and a .22?

    It would probably be in the Rocky mountains would have a good amount of bullets and clothes.How long could someone survive in the wilderness with a dog and a .22?
    hours, days, weeks, months, years.



    Way too many variables. Are you planning on living in a cave, a tent, or a cabin? Are you planning on hunting and trapping or just straight survival? Is someone after you? Do you plan on resupplying? Do you plan on coming back? Do you own the land or are living on public land? How to plan on traveling? Clothes weigh you down, you can never have enough bullets.
    The gun is gonna be next to useless over time cuz you'll run out of bullets. For hunting, you'll end up scaring away game %26amp; will have to travel much more each time. For self-defense, you'd have to be an excellent marksman under pressure, and even then you'd be wasting ammo that could be spent on hunting. The gun will not last as long as you potentially can. Just watch that show with Bear whatshisface or Survivor Man - they never bring a gun.



    If it's a domesticated dog, you'll have to work harder to feed the both of you. The typical pet canine has no survival skills. You'll have to struggle to teach it to hunt, the dog won't learn on his/her own since those are skills learned from the pack (and right now, that consists of just you %26amp; the dog).



    You'd need some survival training to last more than a week, regardless of supplies.How long could someone survive in the wilderness with a dog and a .22?
    that all depends on the persons level of common sense and their own survival instincts. the .22 would supply you with food and a small level of protection while the dog would likely provide only company and possibly protection (or at least warning).
    If you have to ask, probably not too long. The wilderness is not like a video game, if you don't survive, you can't push reset and start over.
    Would depend on who that "someone" was". Lots of folks I know wouldn't last an hour.
