The men and women who traveled west in the 1800's were remarkable survivalists. They lived during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and went through difficult times all the while using what skills they had to stay alive.
Everything they owned was either purchased at a store that was usually located miles away or was handmade. When they were in need of new supplies, they couldn't just buy it on Amazon. Instead, they were forced to learn new skills so they could make it or travel miles to get it.
It's impossible not to admire these brave cowboys who moved out west to make a new living for themselves. They were forced to learn how to be mentally strong and also physically strong when the occasion called for it. Furthermore, they traveled far and had to care for their families along the way often with scarce food and little resources available.
Cowboys were the ultimate survivalists in every sense of the word.
