95% ? That’s what many living in the Bay Area or Los Angeles might think but it turns out there are entire states full of hunters & fishermen who’d be just fine. The reason SAR has exploded in the past decade is because far too many urban and suburbanites dawdle off into hardcore wilderness with a bottle of water and a phone. They fail to respect American wilderness for what it is: wilderness. Drug usage in the outdoors also contributes to a lot of SAR incidents. Gen X is the last generation who grew up learning to troubleshoot & problem solve in the woods because our entire childhood’s through adolescence and high school years no one had cell phones. Those who could afford a “car phone” were typically not the REI/hiking types. It was understood that if you twist an ankle, dehydrate or get lost you better have a skillset & some tools because there’s no helicopter coming

I am surprised at you not taking into account that cold air falls! It is, always, coldest around water! For anyone interested in building a raft, I have noticed that people make the same mistakes, time and time again: first select 2/3 large timbers for cross bracing, then select slimmer logs for going I to the actual water. If you select a pile of large logs to carry you, you are making work for yourself in and out of the water. Secondly do not completely clean your slim timbers of branches...it's not a beauty contest...unless it is. 😂 Always leave some branches, that can help prevent the logs (in the water) working loose and drifting apart, those you brace behind and in front of the heavy 2/3 logs!!! Good luck!

I grew up about 60 miles from there in the same kind of terrain. Loved camping in the woods as a kid. In the wet season it’s all flooded. In the dry season it’s a jungle. I courted my wife with canoe trips on the Alapaha River. Once we went out and the gators were in the rut or something and we’re all over the place. My dad was a guide in the Okefenokee swamp and we went out there all the time. When I saw this episode as a kid I was just getting into survival and primitive skills. I got so excited to see him in my back yard. Even though he butchered the name Altamaha. If you’re from the south it’s pronounced like Autamahaw. Thanks for inspiring me Les!

I've lived in south Georgia all my life. Swamps, rivers and creeks are very common here. I se surprised to hear a Canadian getting surprised to see beavers in a swamp because I've seen them in that environment many times here Edit: I fished in a public pond today, it was pretty "swampy" with lots of vegetation, dirty water, etc. And I saw a beaver there too, a day after making this comment.

Savannah here. I wonder if he would have preferred late-summer? Downpours everyday, extreme heat, and humidity you and have wade through.

I remember growing up watching this show as much as I could as a kid/young teen, thank you Les. You have shown us real survival and possibly save someone’s life one day.

I gotta say I chuckled when I saw the latitude and longitude XD I just finished watching one of your director commentaries and you mentioned how in the early days of the show, the editor would add those random coordinate that wouldn’t match your location out of some kinda safety attempt lol very cool to have some extra insight on the early episodes!!

l lived in the deep south and this was always one of my favorite episodes. Yes it can be surprisingly cold down here, that humidity seems to turn to a cold blanket in the open at night.

I’ve spent a lifetime in the woods only been stranded a few times, they were learning a experience of how un-knowledgeable I was at survival and adapted my skill set so I’ll never be in that situation again, it only takes a bad step to force you to spend the night in the woods

I was stationed not far from here and we were not allowed to sleep on the ground while in the field. But Les does.
