Question

If you dont have one, prepare one cause you will need it

Answer 1

Trunk of car---

Coffee can with
1pen and paper
1flint
1box waterproof matches
1knife
4 packs of Hot cocoa
4 packs of coolaid/juice
1 bar chocolate
2 Garbage bags
50 ft twine.

Seperate from Coffee can
1 axe
1 package road flares/triangles
1 blanket/sleeping bag
1 blue tarp 15x9 (i think thats the measurement)


For home---

(had) 2 maglights (daughter killed them both)
1Package emergancy candles
corded phone (incase power is out but phonelines still work)
emergancy weather radio
matches
flint
water containers (no water)
first aid kit
Canned and dry foods (p38 to open cans)

Answer 2

Basic first aid supplies (bandaids, bandages, cold pack etc), strike anywhere matches, waterproof lighter (Cabela's Alaskan Survival Lighter), MRE's (I have a case at home, and always take at least three with me hiking), water purifying tablets, survival flashlight (no batteries required), and if I'm hiking I always take a map of the area and a compass. The most important part of survival when hiking, is to ALWAYS tell someone where you plan to be. If you say you'll be to a pre-specified place in 5 days, and you don't show up, then at least someone will be looking for you.

Answer 3

way too general a question. i have several kits. one is my house and barn which are stocked with a supply of food and other things i might need if i were cut off from outside sources of supply. a second it my car where i carry tools, first aid supplies, water, extra clothing [ seasonal] and things like matches, flares, and other common items. i carry other stuff when i boat or hunt and still different items for backpacking. there's a lot of carryover between though. i always have first aid supplies and signaling equipt. always a knife or two. some kind of fire starter. protection against weather/ water. you have to figure out the exposure and risks and plan from there.

Answer 4

In an extended emergency a rifle with about 1000 rounds should be seriously considered. An example of this is of those poor folks down south during Katrina.

Answer 5

Water bottles for 4 days, bandaids, cold packs, medicines that get rotated every 3 months, flares, kinlding, matches, camping food in packets that will not expire for years! (Promises to come out warm! LOL) compass, pens, extra cell phone batteries, small charger runs on batteries, keys, toothbrushes (the little ones from the dentist), chains and much much more..) Why?

Answer 6

3 gallons bottled drinking water, Water sanitizing tablets, 4 solar blankets, 1st aid kit, batteries, handcrank flash lights, 2 weeks worth of REMs (army ready to eat meals), saran wrap, candles, 2way radio set, powdered milk, multi-vitamins, canned tuna, rubber & leather gloves, waterproof matches & easy start chips, and a few novels (+ a pack of cigarettes even tho I quit years ago).
Oh... every time I change my clocks for day-light savings or standard time, I change out the batteries & water.

Answer 7

Too much to mention. Enough to survive, at home, or, in the wildnerness for at least one year or more! I'm a backpacker/survivalist, so I'm "always prepared."

Answer 8

My essentials bag that I grab when I go into the woods includes water, compass, knife, 2 fire starters, rope, rain gear, whistle, flashlight, first aid kit, and water purifying tablets.

Answer 9

I have two cans of soup. But I'm getting kind of hungry right now and there's nothing much to eat around the house, so make that one can of soup.

Answer 10

Shampoo,
water,
mocha powder.
Solar powered kettle.
