Description:Survival on the shores of southern Alaska depends on both land and sea resources. Although most people in need of rescue are found within 48 to 72 hours, some knowledge of local wild food is recommended in the event a lost person must wait longer. This booklet gives basic information on nutritional needs of the human body and some wilderness sources to meet those needs. The reader is advised how to ensure drinking water is safe and how to find and prepare intertidal sea animals, land plants, bird eggs, and seaweeds. Information also includes identification of poisonous and non-edible plants and animals.
