I have the skills to get by the same way my ancestors did and enough food to get through until I raise more if needed.
My dad, who's 83, didn't live in a house with electricity until he was in the eighth grade when they moved to town. He taught me alot about raising food and the practicalities of butchering meat without the niceties of freezers and such. My grandmother was a wealth of knowledge also.

Kent,
I agree knowledge is the most important. I doubt if Arizona could support 1 million people these days, 1/2 million was ok when your grand dad (and mine) were running around.
think about the deer hunting around globe and superior and morenci....when there was a strike. not so good.
the number of people that go hunting now is higher than ever, the gear is better than ever, and a lot of these folks are pretty good hunters.
I'm figuring most game is going to be cleaned out pretty quick.
