8:50 My dad's Army-issued manual says that in cold weather environments, you can melt the snow by putting it in a plastic bag and putting the bag in an inner pocket while on the move. Any body heat you might give off will melt the snow too.

[@dandeleona4760]

If it's already in a plastic bag, solar rays will melt without cooling your core temp. The more you can use outside energy the less you have to replace to stay warm at night.

[@platypus8967]

As a former call of duty solider and survivalist from both fallout and S.T.A.L.K.E.R, I can say that the best thing to do in an emergence situation is to level up as much as possible and steal everything, if that doesn't help, you'll just respawn, so no big deal.

[@55Quirll]

With the Birch Bark shavings, have some duck tape or gorilla tape and put the shavings on that to prevent the wind from blowing the shavings away. The tape is also flammable so you get a two for one. I like the pencil sharpener, I have that one in my fire kit as well. Take a pencil with you if you can't find any twigs to fit into the sharpener.

Amazing video... This is very useful information. Another tip is that chewing on a stick of gum can suppress your appetite, thereby preserving limited food supplies from overindulgence, while aiding in necessary saliva production. Thumbs up on the video.

[@kermit368]

As for the trash bags, you can use them to collect water even if there is no rain. If in a very dry climate. You can find a bush and tie it around it. If you add a small rock as a sinker the heat from the sun will evaporate water in the plant and it will collect inside the bag. It's only a couple oz a day but it can be the difference between life and death.

[@yourgodsisspeakingtoyouher4284]

Place random safety pins in your first-aid kit, they can be used to fasten clothes, remove splinters, and even serve as great fish hooks. Your small multi hole ferro rod you mentioned is great. All my boots have one through the 550 survivor cord shoelaces on one boot as well as a piece of metal on the other boot shoelaces.I don't ever even think of them, but they will always there. 550 Survivor cord contains fire cord, thread, and monofilament fishing line along with the seven nylon strands.
