Follow on Google News | Survival Expert Attempting To Cross Death Valley Without Food Or WaterWilderness Survival Expert Thomas Coyne is attempting to cross Death Valley while living off the land.
Thomas is no stranger to this sort of thing however. He is the Chief Instructor at Survival Training School of California, and last year, hiked 100 miles across the entire Sierra Nevada Mountain Range- bringing no food, water, sleeping bags or tents. He and his sole partner in that hike lived off the land on that journey as well; foraging wild edibles, drinking from streams, and building primitive shelters the entire time. The "Badwater Walkabout" will be an interactive adventure, and daily videos will be posted to the school's YouTube channel, featuring Thomas feelings on the hike, and of course the methods he is using to survive. "Trust, but Verify" Thomas states. "If you're driving along 190 or 395 when I'm out and about, feel free to stop and I'll let you see exactly what I have in my pack" He wants people following the event to know it is the "real deal". "Or you can just honk and wave hi" he says jokingly. The event is sponsored by Lowa Boots; outdoor footwear made in the E.U. under strict environmental/ # # # Survival Training School of California operates highly professional skills training programs based on real world applicability.
