Re: What's in Your Survival Kit?

Wait. I thought the question was Survival kit contents.

The lists I am seeing above seem more like gear lists. I consider a survival kit to be such that one would/should carry on ALL outings whether they have other gear with them or not. If we are talking bare bones survival here, this kit would keep one alive until rescue. If you happen to have other gear (Camping, Mt. biking, X-C skiing etc.) great! That's a bonus, but a survival kit is just that, for use in survival emergencies.

Now, let's hear what is in you survival kits!

As a SAR technician and wilderness survival instructor, I am truly interested in seeing the lists - not to tear them up - I won't - but to, possibly, get some ideas to pass on. Possibly helping others, or even saving lives.
