Howdy guys, I'm thinking about going on a longer hike then I'm used to and want to carry the bare minimum for 7 days of hiking. But I'm trying to see what items considered essentials could be replaced by locally sourcing what you need while hiking or making it. Knowledge? Opinions? I remember watching a video and I'm pretty sure it was Matt graham and he'd just take a stone knife, some cloth, and I think a water container. Pic slightly unrelated.
Just take gear in. Very little of value can actually be made on a hike.

Is this for a long term living solution in the wilderness?
Matters on evinronment the hike is in.

Mostly just for a 7 day hike, but I'd like to work up and get comfortable with longer times spent out.
This is the video, friend.

Well you can exchange sexual favours for food and shelter
I have found that to be very helpful when i find myself in an unfamiliar place with sub par gear

I mean if you were going out for more than a week I could see it being useful maybe. But I still think it would be better just to pack in your own gear and practice making your own replacement gear just in case something does happen

If you ever find a wild gourd, you can dig in to make a water container. This is how we first used it back in the stone age.
You need to find one first.
Seriously, just learn your local edible to make some infusion/spice your food and occasionally take some time to fish or trap a thing.
matt graham always uses condor gear
