Setting a Deadfall | Live Free or Die

I haven't been eating much. I'm pretty much down to survival rations, so I'm looking for signs of rodent. I'm seeing right here kind of a cave-like formation, so I'm going to go back there, see what I can find in the deep canyons of Arizona desert.

Nomad Tobias searches for a source of protein near his new primitive camp. He hasn't eaten a meal in almost 7 days. There's a lot of debris from rodent activity back in here. I'm seeing little tracks over there, a little bit of burrowing and so forth. Rodents really like edges; they like to kind of feel safe, so I think this is a decent place to start making some deadfall traps.

So, this is kind of how the trap gets set. I'm going to put the bait as far back under this trap as I can get it. So there's a little bit of apple on the end. I've got enough apple to bait traps, but none for myself. What'll happen is the critter will come in, and it'll see that bait, and it'll start trying to pull on it, and the rock will fall on it.

I'm really depending on getting something with these traps because I really don't have any other protein coming in.

Jesus! Trying to set this on just the smallest little divot basically, but it's kind of hard to see.
