My Belt Pouch Survival Kit



This is my Belt Pouch Survival Kit. It will provide me with fire, shelter, food and water procurement, and signalling, + medical needs. It is only about twwo pounds and fits inmy hand. Its contents are as follows: 1 Poncho, 2 Slim Jims, 1 Bottle Water Purificaion tabs, 1 Orange Marher Panel, 1 AMK Rescue Flash Signal Mirror, 1 Spark-Lite Firestarter, 1 Magnesium Firestarter, 1 Pack of matches, 1 Bic Lighter, 1 packet of Tissue, 1 Survival Tube Whistle (compass, mirror, waterproof compartment, flint striker, lanyard, and of course, whistle...) 1 Emergency Blanket, 3 packs instant broth, 1 small bottle of tabasco (military issue), 1 hot hand (to ward off hypothermia), 1 Alchohol Prep pad (first aid and firestarter), 1 Sweetener Packet, 1 Victorinox Swiss Army Knife, 45 ft. of Paracord, 1 Button Compass, 3 Tea Packs, 3 sq. ft. Aluminum foil, 4 Tinder-Quiks, Ziplock Bag, Steel Wool, Change for a call or two, and an extra fishing kit, 2 Tylenol, 2 Aspirin, 3ft. Snare Wire (not pictured), Fat Wood firestarter, 3 ft. Duct Tape, 5 Assorted Bandages (not Pictured), 2 Light Sticks, and a slingshot band (Not Pictured)

With this kit and my knowledge, I could survive a prolonged stay in the wilderness. Even though most people are rescued within 72 hours...If they left info of wherethey were going and when they planned to return with a responsible family member...


P.S.

This firefighter guy, (Charles Xavie Eisenhower Luther Bon Haffer the III) will help me keep (or lose) my sanity when lost. (Hey, I would rather talk to Charles than a tree, or a volleyball named Wilson!)
