I wouldn’t want to try to survive a winter in the Midwest in a tent, much less a winter in the Rockies.
“Live off the land” in the mountains, where almost no edible plants grow??? I think she was smoking some of what they made legal in Colorado a while back.
No, you're too polite. She's downright stupid.
I like to trek, both summer and winter, in the county and state forests in upstate NY and Western PA. Its not the rockies, but can get quite remote.
This past winter, on a trail, I came across a woman and two young children, trudging through the snow. They were about 4 miles from a parking lot where there is a short walk to a waterfalls. They ignored all the signs/markers, and had gone exactly the wrong direction - and kept walking. they were wearing Uggs and yoga pants. It was late afternoon. I also think the woman was high - she acted like it. I walked them all the way back to their car
People can be really stupid!
They also failed ... when the barbecue ran out ...
One partial week of on-the-cheap, minimalist Winter camping in Iowa convinced me that I had The Wrong Stuff for a survivalist. It is fun until the first thing goes wrong and starts the snowball rolling downhill.
If they only had someone who could have opened the jars of food they brought...

DEMOCRATS
A tent, in the Rockies, during the winter.
Can’t fix stupid.
“They also failed.”
Well, not all of them. 45 of them survived, mostly children. So they did better than this group.
Correlation…
Natural selection.
“They also failed.”
Not all of them. Some survived on shank steaks and ham
Kinda like Alferd Packer survived in Colorado
To quote the judge”
“Apr 18, 1984 — “Stand up, Alferd Packer, you voracious, man-eating s— of a b——. There were seven Democrats in Hinsdale County, and you ate five of them.”
Yep and were planning on setting up camp in their backyard,overnight for real experience...
McCandless comes to mind
Of the hundred possible stories, this wasn’t one of them
Correction: should read Apr 18, 1884
“survived on canned food and sheltered in a tent before a harsh winter”
Stupid people.
they were wearing Uggs and yoga pants.
And Flip-Flops
The WEF is deeply gladened...
