Most survival advice available in the press is dubious at best, written by professional writers and not seasoned instructors with field experience.  Thankfully Outside Magazine decided to hire Tony Nester of Ancient Pathways to answer their  reader’s questions on their Survival Guru blog.

Tony’s got two decades of experience teaching in the field, has written several excellent books, and is just a good guy.  And I’d say this even if he didn’t list us in a recent post on edible wild plants.
