                    This is my first post and Mrs. B said to write about anything so I will write about survival. YOLO right? Exactly so lets keep that life living. Tip 1: Keep a pocket kit, a pocked kit usually consists of a (preferably water proof) container. This container will hold the rest of your gear. The second thing that you will need is at least 2 ways to start a fire including tinder ("Bic" lighter, "Wet Fire"). Fire is one of the most important ways to stay alive, it can scare away most any predatory animal, it can keep you warm, it can boil your water which we will go over later, and it can cook your food. The third thing that you will need is a signaling/ navigation group usually including mirror, flashlight, whistle, and two compasses. Why two the second compass is just for making sure the other one is correct. Then you will need a repair/ food gathering group which includes: duct tape, safety pins, sewing needles and thread, fish hooks/ lures, fishing string and small bobbers. You will also need a first aid group: bandaids, alcohol wipes, and toilet paper. Then you will also need at least two ways to purify water, personally I use water purification tablets, and a way to boil the water. Finally you will need any kind of cutting tool, like a knife, a razor blade, or axe. Well that should do it for you pocket kit, so pack it and keep one in every vehicle. Peace out.
