Thinking my list would be the same. Maybe trade knife for saw. Depending on what multi tool I could have.

No tarp..... interesting.

Knowing Keith and watching his and Jen's videos I wouldn't doubt that Keith builds a cabin.

Having never watched this show I know nothing about it But they did have a special on local TV the other night interviewing a guy from Michigan who won I think the 2nd season.

It's worth watching Jon. It's the most real survival show I've seen.

JEB you can find previous seasons episodes on dailymotion dot com
search for "alone season" or
"alone s01e01" where s01 is number of the season (you can write s02, s03 ...) and e01 is number of episode (you can write e02, e03 ....)

3- 1 large pot (no more than 2 quarts; includes lid)
4- 1 Leatherman multi-tool or similar

Not in any order of importance, think this is how my list would shape up.

1. 550 Paracord - 80m
2. multi-seasonal sleeping bag
3. large pot (no more than 2 quarts; includes lid)
4. flint or ferro rod set with standard-sized striker
5. 300-yd roll of a single-filament fishing line up to max of 20 lbs weight test + 25 assorted barbless hooks, no bigger than size 7/0, no lures.
6. Primitive Bow Recurve or longbow + 9x Arrows + simple quiver OR arrow attachment.
7. roll 3.5 lbs of 20 or 21-gauge trapping (snare) wire
8. hatchet
9. saw
10. Buck knife or multi tool, undecided on that last spot

They had an interview on the radio this morning with one of the contestants who is a local woman from Espanola. She said her focus was on food gathering tools. Don't know how that panned out for her

OK, when does the new season start, what channel and what time? Thanks

DC · « **Reply #146 on:** June 11, 2020, 10:11:13 am »

Well, looks like it will be a year before I can look at this thread again. I dont want spoilers lol. I dont have cable, so I watch Hulu and Netflix, gadda wait till it posts on there.

JEB · « **Reply #148 on:** June 12, 2020, 04:48:35 am »

Well I tried watching it and then 1015 PM showed up. I get up at 530 am everyday so I have a hard time staying up late. What I saw looked good. Hopefully they will rerun the first show at an earlier time.

I watched it, Keith wasn't on other than a few snap shots, it was OK, if I can stand the commercials I will watch it again, did see a guy kill a squirrel with a rock. One f the guys was from Paris Tennessee, I have seen him before at TwinOaks, pretty cool but he was the first to leave after 10 days, lot his fire starter.
