It is not often that I am as content as I was then; sitting in the middle of a swamp with a group of friends, miles away from civilization, frying fresh frog legs and fish filets, learning new wilderness skills, and having added to my knowledge of kayak camping in the swamp. Thankfully, my pessimistic opinion about catching food for dinner was proven wrong.That evening my mind wondered about what the right way is to plan for, execute, and safely enjoy a wilderness trip: if I plan on catching or hunting for my meal on the next trip rather than packing food, but end up getting skunked, the results of that failure would be uncomfortable, yet I’d probably still survive. If the end goal is to survive while fully experiencing the wilderness, with the now proven prospect of enjoying an amazing meal sourced in the wild, then why not take the chance?I thought again of why I go on these trips: To experience nature and solitude, and to be presented with the challenges of being away from the everyday things that make us comfortable, the things that people take for granted and think are guaranteed. By not packing food and challenging myself to source food from the land, wouldn’t this achieve my desire?Ultimately, I still pack enough food to get through a trip comfortably, but will at least prepare for and try to source fresh food from the land.Excerpt #2I suddenly heard Josh let out a yell in front of me. When I looked up, he was holding his foot off the ground, and he displayed a look of pain and discomfort in his face. I asked if he hit a rock with his leg or foot, hoping he had just a minor injury. But he quickly said "no" and indicated it was his ankle, putting my mind into gear about how we’d get him out of the canyon if his ankle was broken.I told him to sit down, but he refused and said he was fine; it was obvious he was in pain. We all knew our location was the worst possible place on the hike to become immobilized; we could not go back the way we came, and we still had another rappelling and swimming section ahead of us. If he could not walk it off and keep moving under his own power, it may result in us waiting until the next day for help. This was the exact situation I was afraid of and had tried to prepare for.The next few minutes were tense. Chris and I didn’t say much, but we were already going through options and plans in our head. Should one of us go ahead alone? Should we wait and hope for another group to pass by? Should we activate the distress beacon to get help?
