Preparation is the key to survival. I would not go into backcountry anywhere without first giving it considrable thought. Nor would I jump into it without the proper gear.I would definitely survive and more than likely thrive. Fishing line and hooks would be in my survival kitand well as snare wire. If I had neither of these, I'm sure there's plenty of vegitation to weave traps of various sorts. Chances are, if I didn't have a knife, I could knapp one from stone. Building shelter would not be an issue (mud, grass, and wood or mud, grass and stone). I could even start a fire without the matches. For me, the key would be to stay warm, dry and hydrated for 14 days. I could and would snack whenever possible.
