Welcome to DrewBrandt.com






 

Well here I am on the start of this amazing expirence. 3 Days, no real food, nothing but a knife and some water.

 







Boiling some water to drink for breakfast






I had to start off pretty quick and get a shelter up due to the rain that was moving in. I started approx 10AM on Fri ate a normal breakfast and didnt eat again untill late that evening, but even then it was just a small package of cookies.

The rain moving in
A view during the first night. This looks to be pretty early on, it got crazy cold that night and I was not prepaired at all. My fire pit was way to far away from my shelter and would not put off enough heat for me to stay warm.
I would wake up about every 30-45 min and have to fight off the flys again but adding more wood to the fire. And collect more fire wood, I did this all night long, as well as running on a few cookies that I had with me for one day now.
Setting up some snare traps to see if I can catch anything. I did not catch anything but I was able to get a snake on the 2nd day towards the evening. Not bad eatting after having nothing for 2 days. Great Survival Trip and would love to do it again.
Day 2 eatting some cactus, (taistes like water) bad idea as for the rest of the trip I was picking needles out of my mouth.
A view looking out from inside of my shelter night #2. Not as cold this night, I moved my fire pit and was again stocked up on wood for the night. The flies would wake me up when my fire died down and I would build it up again.
Here I am with one day down and a finnished shelter
