While we all wonder how we would fare if we had to survive\xa0for months in the wild like Brian does in the book Hatchet, the reality is that most survival\xa0situations\xa0only last a day or two. You get lost or injured in the woods and have to spend a night out that you hadn't planned on. And as my guest, Dave Canterbury says, as\xa0long as you know some basic skills and pack the right gear, you can turn a potentially life-and-death situation into what's just a night of inconvenient\xa0camping.\n\nDave is the author of numerous\xa0books on wilderness survival, including his latest: The Bushcraft Essentials Field Guide.
