Good advice. Mixing salt and honey produces something most people would consider a miracle drug if it came in a tube.

Haven’t tried it mixed with salt! The next time I have side by side cuts I’m going to run a honey / salted honey test.
It’s why honey roasted and salted nuts last practically forever without spoiling, also the salt helps to draw out inflammation.
Honey as an antibiotic and salt as an anti inflammatory go back all the way to ancient Egypt.

Hunt, fish, trap, track, build shelter, brain tan hides, build primitive tools, make fire in inclement weather, purify water via multiple methods, gather wild edibles (did you know cattails are edible? Stalks and roots. Did you also know cattails have a poisonous look alike?)
There are tons of skills out there, they’re all good to have.
