Travel on foot what supplies should I bring?
I wanted to travel on foot but I don't know if I am going south or north of Beloit Wisconsin (were I live). But if I did travel what should I bring? My thoughts are what ever I carry should be light but also not limit my necessities and should be able to live in ether city or forest areas. I do have some supplies growing up that I think will help but for instance I do not have much money as is to buy fancy equipment and wish to not have much money on me when I travel so what ever I bring should help me get my needs. I would also like to be living like this for at the least 4 weeks and at most 3 months.
I love the outdoors and I feel like I should experience something I am completely not use to and break free for a little in my life. Also I decided I'm 20 and I would physically only be able to do this because I don't have many responsibilities and now would probably be the best to go on this adventure.
Things I have or that I know I should carry.
Large hiking pack
Large water bottle
Flint and steel
Large poncho
3 lighters
100 dallor bill(incase if I want to get home at any time)
Needle and thread
Military MRE maybe 3 or 4 just to get me by for a while or to ration out
Kukri Machete
Driving license
Pocket knife
Small pan
If you could be helpful on things I may need other wise I would appreciate it and this is just a basic outline. Also maybe where I should travel towards. I was thinking north to go more into the woods area.
Also I am not very experienced with this so maybe recommend some books I could bring along to know different herbs I could eat in the region.
I did want to do something like the movie "Into the Wild"
Thanks :)
Repost walking on foot just looking for suggestions
This is a repost I didn't get many replies on the first one and I thought I would refresh it.
