Living in Michigan, I pay extra attention to Canadian survivalist advice. If you guys can survive brutal winters with specific moves and tools, I'm all ears.
Thanks and these skills do cross over south of our border
Great stuff, Bruce. Thanks for sharing.
Good stuff, Bruce!
Thank you
Love the duct tape on the matches; it has many uses including first aid if needed. And, although you're supposed to stay put if you're lost, perhaps add a cheap dollar-store compass.
I carry a good compass, so left it out
i recommend over a smooth container so air doesnt dry out..plus use gorilla tape...makes duct tape obsolete!
If the batteries in the light die, you can use the fire stick to flash signal.
It's likely brighter then most microlights even if it's a bit less consistent.
Your tea bags are not just a moral booster, they have some medicinal benefits to them. It lower blood pressure (which will help when your on the verge of panicking) and increases mental awareness and focus (also a big benefit when you're stranded in the wilderness). Black tea is also a coagulant, so if you cut yourself you can use a dry tea bag on the wound to help clot the blood. They are also anti-inflammatory. A moist, warm tea bag put over an eye after a minor injury will help to reduce swelling and speed up recovery (a huge help when in a survival situation if you injure one or both eyes)., and will help with stings and bug bites as well. it can be a good fire starter as well. There's so much more to a tea bag than a warm drink my friend.
I might just go make a video about this very topic for my own channel. Stay safe bud.
Therefore a Moral Booster PLUS Black teas many benefits. It's basic abilities I normally place in the “sit down and have a brew” area of the Physiology of Survival to help reduce panic but additional knowledge of herbal medicine is always an interesting topic and I look forward to watching your video, cheers
Amen to that. I was on a long-range patrol (I won't say where) when I got a bit "mis-oriented" and missed a way point. Instead of getting all panicky, I sat down and (dug a hole for a small fire) made a brew Earl Grey, of course), and ate a HOOAH bar. My blood pressure lowered, I felt much less anxious, I corrected myself and continued the mission.
@@cardiacbob absolutely Robert brewing up is such a moral raiser in the field, as I listen to the heavy rain and take another sip from my cup 👍
I did that video a few weeks ago if you’re interested in checking it out.
👍
Well thought out kit. Using a clear bag for your snow collection will allow it to be used as a transpiration still as well....If it's sunny out.
Absolutely
I’m always learning something new from these videos. Great content.
Thanks Tim
Awesome
👍🏻🇺🇸
Do Enjoy your thourghtful video! I'll try to build one simular, thanks.
Excellent and Thank you
Now that makes good CommonCents !
Keep up the good work
Thank you
They make good container for Cache's. So do the wide mouth Nalgene type. Easy to conceal or bury.
I like the Metal containers way more than plastic
Great video keep it up
Thank you
How did you get the wire around the neck of the bottle?
I've got a similar bottle and would like to do the same.
I wrap it once with thin wire, then put on the rings and wrap three or four more times, finally I use small pliers to wrap or tie the two ends together
Great idea. I have done the same thing, UNTIL, I realized the most important and most often used part of this kit in the field, is the water its self! OK, are you going to carry all the items in the bottle and then fill it with water? Once you empty it so you can put water in it, where do you put the items in it?
I have a plastic bag inside, but the idea is to have the items and use them in an area like most of Canada where water is present and you need to boil it to purify it, you have pockets and maybe a pack, it would be odd if we wondered around naked carrying a single metal container as well I normally mount it an ATV or throw it into a pack, if you need water for the day, it would be extra and could be carried in a plastic container or a hydration system
Great idea 👍(so much better than the infamous tobacco tin)
The Nomad Survivalist, Thank you and yes I believe in making a survival kit that can really contain critical items
@@BruceZawalsky 👊
Curious;;; see quite a few videos people using their water bottles for a survival kit;;; can't help but wonder how they plan to carry water with their bottle used to carry their kit
The Metal Water Bottle allows you to boil water or melt snow dozens of times, 1L of water will last you a few hours, when stranded (hence the survival kit) with the means to light fire and a metal water bottle. This is a purpose built survival kit, I am not saying not to carry water, but you cannot carry enough water for more than a day
Where did you get the yellow gasket on the match holder? Thanks
I purchased an entire package of them at a hardware store, they are made for hoses
I wouldn’t trust any gear that was “cheap”! Buy the best gear you can…your life just may depend on it!
How you make your cotton ball
It’s fairly simple, here is a link to the Web Article boreal.net/articles/survival-training/making-tinder-fire-starter.php
Stainless Steel Aluminum Bottle?
No it is a Stainless Steel Bottler
Grab a pair of good ankle sox❤
Nothing wrong with extra clothing, it's your number one critical item for survival
I would have put in a mylar blanket.& Ultra lightweight poncho instead ..
Different situations and conditions dictate what gear you need
Great video and kit but living in Australia it makes far more sense to put water in your water bottle though 🤣
Absolutely, Different environments, different priorities of Survival
Find a pouch to carry all the items and the water bottle separately.
This is built for a different scenario, I do have a bag for the equipment when in use as a bottle or pot
@@BruceZawalsky I don't know what kind of scenario this would be meant for, having all my survival items stuffed into a narrow neck bottle and harder to access than everything being readily accessible in a pouch with a full bottle of water.
@@Eidolon1andOnly I mount them on Quads year round and other locations where you want the kit only when stranded and it means you always have the equipment no matter how you packed and where you went, Survival Kit plus what you were smart enough to take
@@BruceZawalsky Can still mount a pouch containing everything with the items and water bottle occupying the same pouch and nothing inside the bottle.
Absolutely, but the water would freeze 8 month of the year destroying the container and the water would not be fresh, as well I carry the water in need and the a stainless steel to allow melting of snow or boiling of water over a fire
Ok what happens when you need to carry water n that bottle?
Guess you toss all your stuff in favor of carrying water?
Also, the video does not play.
No I pack in a plastic bag for that purpose
Why not put it all in your pockets and on your belt?
Especially if you're wearing a coat or jacket.
Sure once you are stuck, but have the ability to boil water easily is a life safer
@@BruceZawalsky
Sorry.
I meant empty it all into your pockets inorder to fill the bottle with water.
@@laremyzaring8568 you would put some in your pockets, but others you want to keep in one place. the knife would go on the belt. the lighter in the pocket but the matches and ferro rod would be kept in the bag so not misplaced. there are no hard fast rules. you might take everything out of the bag and use it for water carry if needed. A survival kit is only as good as the knowledge of the person using it. Perhaps the person is in cycling shorts and a hoodie. no good pockets. Semper gumby.
better to use a pouch or bag to carry kit and use bottle for it's purpose, carrying water,,,,,, personally i been places,, no or little water and boiling takes time and uses other resoures,,,, does not make much sense
Then you missed the point, sorry listen again or read my article, you cannot leave a water bottle filled with water outside all winter attached to a quad or other location that freezes
