so all these willows are gonna be really
nice just to make like a little bit of a
jerky rack you don’t want too much bulk
there cuz a jerky needs to dry fast
it’s nearly 60 degrees in southern Utah
at those temperatures meat will spoil in
as little as two hours if Matt fails to
get a supply preserved quickly he’ll
lose vital rations before he knows for
sure the land still has all the
resources he needs to survive you know I
like to suspend my jerk you acts up in
the tree away from other animals that
might be interested in eating it there’s
mountain lions that come through here a
lot of times and there are raccoons as
well so I’m gonna try to stabilize a
little bit more and these young shoots
are still very moist and flexible so I
can use those as a binding if I don’t
pull too tight so far I mean it looks
good it feels really good to be back but
I still have a lot to do to settle back
into camp I didn’t bring all the
resources I need for this moment cuz I
just got back here so I’m just making do
what I can this salt I’m gonna use for
basically coating the meat it’s gonna
help the jerky taste a little bit better
and act as the observer T now the jerky
rocks built the main thing at this point
is just to hoist it up away from animals
off the ground safe this meat I brought
it with me
I’ll get me going for a little while
hopefully I can start finding other food
