It always amazes me how much socks are under rated. I was taught on the 3 pair system. 1 to walk in, another pair to wear at night and anothe to replace the walking socks while they dry. Wash the walking socks at the end of the day and the sleeping socks every 2 days. I never got any foot infections.

I've spent 11 years in EMS and I am a proponent for building your own first aid kit. A quality tourniquet cat or Softee is a must, 6 individual 4 x 4, 2 maxi pads, 1- 2 inch roll gauze, one roll vet wrap, Small Tube of antibacterial, small scissors or shears combined with the duct tape and shemagh will get you through most situations. Then watch some good KZbin tutorials on how to use said equipment.

One thing I learned from going through Hurricane Helene is do not depend on cell phones or internet working. In Nc some areas didnt get the flood warning until a full week after the flood because towers were down. We lost power, phone and internet very early during Helene. I was also taken back by how many people were truly unprepared with even basic necessities like pantry food to eat during a power outage or even gas in their cars.

Some of the newer headlamps have a moonlight or 1 candle power option. It's more than enough for campsite movements but extends your battery for days. Coffee tears my stomache up so I pack some of those Emergen-C packs. Gives me an energy boost plus vitamin c and electrolytes.

My questions about this video: would your phone not be the number one item for getting help headed your way? And, if one of your tasks is to chop your path through half mile of brush using the compass to get to a road, would you consider a machete type device for this pack?

Good video! I've never seen a budget first aid kit that I thought "hey, this *doesn't* have a bunch of stuff in it I probably won't ever need." I'm a big fan of putting your own kit together for your individual needs, plus predictable circumstances. At age 67, I personally would need more OTC painkillers because of my arthritis. I'd probably need some type of roll-on or squeeze tube of a topical pain-killer too, to stretch a small supply of aspirin out longer. A packet of Salonpas patches would be handy, too. I'd probably need fewer band-aids because I've learned to be more observant as I've gotten older. I now tend to avoid any hazard I see, rather than bull my way through it the way I did as a 20-something... I'd want stuff for unpredictable occurrences as well as known, normal everyday needs.

Thanks for another great video. Lots of good tips in this one. A nice simple bag with just a few basic things is easy to put together for not a lot of money. One thing to note is choosing things based on where you live. In a warmer area, you don't need a heavy sleep system. In colder areas, you may want two or three extra blankets. In an area there's not a lot of water resources, bring extra canteens and containers. Just try and think about where you are and where you might be going to figure out what's best for you.

That’s because so many people end up watching KZbin videos that sell the latest and “greatest” bugout merch, not the strategy itself.

@commonsensepatriot9450 this one is almost as unrealistic, though. If the premise is just "I'm hiking until I can call for help" just carry a Garmin InReach and have a handful of people download the app so you can message them. Like, nowadays, satellite access isn't expensive, and your phone might even have the capability built in. So maybe carry a 20,000mAh power bank, some food, a lighter, a knife, and a metal water bottle with filter. Otherwise, This bag needs to be with the assumption that you can't call for help and you have to make your way home yourself. Lastly, like 36 states have concealed carry reciprocity now and EVERY state has a concealed weapons permit that is on a "shall issue" basis now, thanks to the Supreme Court ruling about a year ago.

@commonsensepatriot9450 I agree, but if the INTENT is to just get somewhere to where you can call someone, then just carry something to call someone from anywhere. But if you're preparing for a situation where all cell towers are down and you have to get yourself home, that's where a bag like this would be needed. But also, if I'm 25 miles into the woods, the only reason I'd be there is to be camping or hunting, so I'd have that gear with me anyway. The scenario he presents just doesn't make sense to me with the outcome he's looking for.

As I get older I change my kit based on perceived needs and limitations. Conceptual 30 miles to get home (so two day walk at 15 miles a day... worst case scenario of rough or dangerous ground). I currently wear a chest pack, a fanny pack (in front) and a small backpack. Everything with load (including a full 36oz water bottle) comes in at 25lbs. If I really had to I could lose the backpack and still have essentials to make it home. I can sleep with a chest pack and fanny pack on. It seems to work best for me, for now. *Special note: ankle high pantyhose, one pair to wear reduces friction and therefore blisters, second pair a good pre filter for water.

Years ago myself, my BF and his three kids got caught out with 10k other people in a freak snowstorm nobody saw coming. We went to Timberline Lodge. Left at 3:00 pm. By the time we got to I-84 snow was falling. We ended up abandoning the car at a parking garage in downtown PDX. Last MAX transit train that was running out of Portland only took us part of the way. We ended up getting home to Hillsboro, Oregon at 1:30 am. Ever since we carry a tote in the back of our car with road supplies, food, a stove, a gallon of water, water filters, two wool blankets and supplies to deal with a break down. If we go out into the trees, both our personal backpacks go too. During covid, I put together a badass first aid kit that an EMT wouldn't turn up their nose at. We also both carry a personal first aid kit in our backpacks. When I stay in hotels, I take the coffee cups/lids, sugar/spoon etc and those go in the tote in the car. We can bust out a cup of coffee, tea, cocoa for four people at any given time. Useful for making friends in the middle of a traffic jam or helping out a mom with restless kids.

Lifeboat water packets are a good carry they can freeze or sit in a hot car and still be used. Water bottles split when frozen, so in cold environments, they can't be left in the vehicle. The nature valley oats and honey granola bar is a favorite emergency food they are dry, so they hold up to heat and cold. I have eaten them as much as 2 years past the best by date, though I do try to rotate my stock.

You mentioned you put those solar panels on your dashboard, and it took two days to charge one bar. Remember, the windshield is UV tinted. You will lose about 60% efficiency in that device. A 20-watt panel only gives you 8 watts behind the windshield, plus it loses ability in the heat.

According to the Grayl website: How do I know when it is time for a new cartridge? As you use your Grayl purifier, the 'press time' will slowly increase with use. When 'press time' reaches ~25 seconds (or three years have elapsed since first use), it is time to replace your cartridge. Grayl's own rule of thumb.

This is good stuff. I make my fire fuel out of wood shavings from working on different things, especially when sanding or using the radial saw. I just dump the dust pocket into a bag and when I have enough, I use paraffin wax and make little globs of awesome fire starter.

I love absolutely everything you do, and have watched many of your videos, but I am absolutely amazed to have only JUST found out that you were a CWI! I was a nuclear engineer working for a company that makes detector rods for about a year before I started as a CWI. I've been one for only a few years and just had my renewal go through this month, but I feel like I have so many new questions for you and your experiences, beyond things relating to bushcraft

A gallon of water is 128oz, the Grayl is 24oz. 128 x 65= 8,320 / 24 = 346 uses before changing the filter.

Heck yeah. Old timers have daily steady aches and pains. Tylenol is a must to maintain attitude! Also, foot care is crucial. Not many people have tried to cover ground with wet feet. Rub sores, blisters, athletes feet, etc…. Not a recipe for foot travel. As for first aid kits…….make your own. Small hand picked kits will provide more care period.

I really like that you identified the difference between purifying water and sanitizing water. It always annoyed me when people would talk about "purifying" water by (for example) boiling it. You won't make salt water pure by boiling it. If your water is contaminated with arsenic, no disinfecting process is going to fix that.

Outstanding video. One bit of advice regarding socks, get Marino wool such as Grip 6, Smartwool, etcetera. Wool is naturally anti bacterial and will not get stinky. Even better, change out all your cotton and/or synthetic material socks for Marino wool socks. Do this over time since a pair of Marino wool socks cost more than a six pack of cotton socks. The other bonus, the Marino wool socks last a whole lot longer.

The other problem with that particular battery pack (looks like the same one I have) is it does not passthrough charge, meaning you can't charge your phone using the solar through the battery. You're either discharging the battery or charging it, not both. But I agree, solar as a backup but reality you just want a topped up power pack

Charging your phone only through solar (without using the battery) on one of those would take forever. That's probably why
