Low-Tech Survival Skills

[fritzbc]

Suppose you’re in the wilderness. It’s the summer solstice, in 160 days there will be the first snow. It’s a temperate environment, Tech-Level is 2, with realistic survival mechanics. For the sake of simplicity, you can assume that you’ll have relevant basic equipment for skills. As well as that, you assume all attributes are 10 and you have 60 points to spend on just skills.

Now, I’m curious; What skills would you take? What are absolutely necessary, what could you need but not require? What could you forgo and what will you ignore entirely? Why? How long do you think you could realistically survive? If you’d like, you can also ask further questions about my little “Scenario”.

For me? I’d take Carpentry, Fishing, Gardening, Weather Sense, Cooking (iirc you need it to preserve food), Survival (Woodlands and Plains), and most likely Axe and Bow. I’m eager to see your responses.
