We got an interesting event submitted to us from local Technomad, Colin Leath. He is definitely up to something unique and I can only assume that he sent the email from his campsite in the woods based on the following description from this blog:

“I’m working on getting rid of possessions I cannot carry and heading out to the forest with a PDA for reading books, a solar charger, and a cell phone. My goals are to be able to blog about what I’m doing, to provide an example others can learn from, to stay in contact with urban dwellers so they can come out and visit, and to encourage and help them to be comfortable and to live simply in the outdoors.”

Colin is inviting locals to join him during the weekend of May 9th to learn more about survival in the outdoors and to mobile blog about your experiences. Check out his blog post for more info on the event.

Now, Colin seems like a nice enough guy, but we don’t know him or his background. So please do your own due diligence if you plan to participate.
