- Sam is also very courageous. He decided he wanted to try living in the woods on his own. Even though he had no idea exactly what to expect, he did it anyway.
- Sam used all of the resources around him in order to survive in the wilderness. One example is when he made salty flavoring by boiling hickory sticks.
