1St Year Supplies

[frostbite]

There is a list of food supplies that Jean Aspen took along to make it thru their first winter in the bush. If I'm not mistaken it is in the book Arctic Son. In her book Arctic Daughter she butchered a horse and had it cut up and smoked. I doubt you want to go there. A good rule of thumb is you will consume 2 to 3 times your body weight thru the cold season. So you need to plan along those lines.

Thanks frostbite. I just ordered a copy of the book. Seems to be hard to come by. I loved Final Frontiersman. That seemed like a very good account of some of the hardships of bush life.
