The Wilderness Long-Term Survival Guide is built for those who aren’t just looking to survive a night in the wild—they’re looking to live there. Written by Dr. Nicole Apelian, a seasoned wilderness expert who lasted 57 days on the History Channel’s Alone, this guide teaches the skills you need to turn the untamed backcountry into a place you can truly call home.
Inside, you’ll find step-by-step instructions, high-resolution photos, and clear illustrations that make tough skills easy to follow. From building sturdy shelters and finding clean water to mastering fire-starting techniques—including a self-feeding fire that can burn for 14 hours—this book covers the essentials of long-term survival.
But it doesn’t stop at shelter and fire. You’ll learn wilderness first aid, how to identify and use medicinal plants, and how to track, hunt, and cook in the wild without relying on modern gear. Whether you’re treating injuries with herbal remedies or cooking a fresh catch over a fire, these skills bring real independence.
The Wilderness Long-Term Survival Guide isn’t about fancy gadgets or prepping for a weekend hike. It’s about true self-reliance—the kind you need when the woods become your best and only option. Dr. Apelian’s hands-on, battle-tested knowledge gives you the confidence that, no matter what happens, you can take care of yourself far from civilization.
Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, preppers, or anyone who believes the best backup plan is knowing how to survive without a backpack full of gear, this book is a must-have for anyone serious about mastering the wild.
