How long do you think you could last a zombie outbreak with your current knowledge, skills and supplies. You can acquire knowledge, skills and supplies along the way. If have any zombie slaying tactics or survival knowledge feel free to share those too.
The zombies would be like the ones from The Walking Dead and Left for Dead's common infected. Fairly normal human capabilities..
They react to noise and sight, and smell.
Noises: soda can rolling, glass breaking, metal clanking, engine noises, guns shots, shouting, talking. So you have to whisper and walk quietly if zombies are nearby.
Smell:they can smell you within 10 feet, 100 feet if you're bleeding.
Sight:If they see you moving faster than a zombie they'll notice you, so walk slowly or run when they are far from you.
Zombies can't swim but they do float, so some might across a river accidentally that way. They can; run, walk, crawl, try to use ladders, bang on doors and break weak glass.
Infection would be from; zombie bite, zombie blood in a open wound, zombie blood in eyes or mouth.
Once a person is infected they would get very sick in 10 minutes, die in 1 hour and once dead they would reanimate in 1-3 minutes.
For info on how to slay a zombie check Spoiler.

Damaging or destroying the brain kills a zombie, decapitation works as well. Destroying or damaging joints would make that part of the zombie useless/less useful.
- I think I could survive about 2 weeks with current weapons, supplies and knowledge.
- About 2 months if I learn quick and get good with melee combat and gain better physical strength and stamina.
- 5 months, During the winter I think I would be pretty safe since the zombies would freeze solid with the -20F to -40F temperature in Fairbanks.
