bushcraft, more bushcraft and a journal/sketchbook
if you're gonna be out there for like 6 months try farming and wine making. try a long term project like carving out a canoe or collect big rocks to stack up a nice stove. toting those fuckers can take days and days depending on your access to them.

Bring a small sized instrument, practice new skills like fire-making without tools, make cordage, set up more snares, brazeitm7.
Or just accept the fact that you'll get bored if you've willingly put yourself in a "survival" situation.

I had a nice trip a few years back, stayed at one place in a wilderness area for a little under a week.
I didn't bring any mountain-house style food, so a lot of time was spent watching things cooking over the fire. We made huge bag of beef jerky before the trip, and used it to make stews (it gets pretty tender when stewed for a while, much preferable to freeze-dried meat). We ate very well, and didn't have to carry much weight to do so.
There was also constant work to be done, fetching water (thankfully very nearby), purifying, cleaning dishes, getting firewood.
Shoot guns. Obligatory.
Read, hike around, etc. We went on a good hike one day to a peak overlooking our location.
I like viewing it as a relaxing step back to a different way of life. I'd rather hang out for a while, enjoy the quiet, make some food that I don't normally take the time to prepare. Next time, I think I'll bring a bow. A little more relaxing and quiet to shoot.
I've done the high-speed, ultralight, bivy and freeze-dried food type trips, usually for mountaineering. I don't think of that so much as camping, though. In my mind, it's mountaineering, and the camping out part is merely incidental: a means to an end. I'm finding that I do less and less of this.

Explore. I get to know the area, and find all of the cool hidden places. Through tracking and stalking, I get to know the animals that live in there. The longest I've spent in one campsite was a month on Malone Bay, Isle Royale. By the end of the month, I felt like I was a native.

>>37Go hiking around the area and get to know it. Learn to identify the plants. If it's in a place with enough trees, make something. Want a better place to sit? Find some straight poles and put them to good use. Camping next to a creek? Sounds like an opportunity for improvement, pic related. Get to know the local geology. Track animals.
If you're really worried about having too much downtime, you could always fish for your dinner.
