CAMPING in an Oregon Forest - REACTION, Terrain Analysis - Episode 1 Siuslaw
The Siuslaw forest in Oregon is a vast expanse of public lands, with absurd amounts of recreation opportunities, including camping, hiking and fishing. I begin my extended journey into this area of the world with this first episode, with an initial assessment, aka terrain analysis. This is part of what I often discuss in my Collapse Curriculum about situational awareness. It is vital to understand the state of things around you. What are the conditions of the environment, what resources are available, what routes of navigation are options? Watch along and enjoy this beautiful place while we discuss crucial skillsets for both outdoor enjoyment and collapse awareness.

I was operating on the assumption (perhaps erroneously) that all trees in the Pinaceae family are colloquially referred to as the pine family, including many of the well-known conifers such as cedars, firs, hemlocks, piñons, larches, pines and spruces. Doug firs are not in the pinus genus though for sure. Thanks
