    Heads up on the space blanket. As Police officer in the UK, when I used to do uniform patrol, I pulled a male from a vehicle that had entered water. I put a space blanket around him to keep him warm whilst I waited for the paramedics to arrive. When they did, the first thing they did was pull the space blanket off him and then chastise me. Apparently, they work like a thermos. If the person is cold, it will keep them cold and even make them colder. If they are warm, they will keep them warm. They suggested for someone cold, recovered from a cold environment, was to use a blanket - the old style woollen ones or the type you would use on your bed.

    One suggestion for if your travels take you through remote areas in winter, two packages of black cherry gelatin. It is used as a signaling device. Dump one pack on the snow. in about 15 to 30 minutes, you get a big red dot that is about 15 to 20 feet across. I used to fly mountain air rescue. It is almost shocking how well that show up to an air-crew doing search. A bit pricey, consider a personal locator transmitter. Every little bit helps us to find you when you are lost.

      I really don't understand the use of parentheses from kadmow there. From my understanding, parentheses should be used to insert additional context, or explanation, or qualifiers that could be removed without changing the grammatical structure of the sentence. I don't think there's any kind of symbol @kadmow should've used instead - he should simply have omitted the parentheses and written it like "Nah, those things are required in Europe - they must be bad ... lol" .
      There has been efforts to introduce the "sarcastrophe" to denote sarcastic content or text that otherwise should not be interpreted in a pure literal sense; the caret; ^. But it has never caught on. For example, ^Yeah, right!^

    During northern snow season I always carry a grain shovel along with a 36" steel shovel. Depending on the type of snow, you need to have both. You're going to be there for a while with that little folder. I have a lithium jump pack but I'll always have real jumper cables. I also always carry a below zero sleeping bag for each person. Where I lived, it could be 6 hours before anyone comes along.

    I had a driver trainer who was an Arkansas state trooper. He told me that every safety kit in vehicles should include a single clean white sheet. That was in the late 90s and unfortunately I had to use that sheet twice (2 different sheets) in my life as a long haul truck driver. At the bottom of my bag in the trunk of my car is a single white sheet. And I pray that I never have to take it out except to wash it.

    Tip for if you have the car body digging into a tire:
    Stick the end of something like a 4x4 into the wheel well so that when you move the car the wheel pushes the board around the wheel well pushing the metal out. Works best with a second person to get the board started while you move the car.

IE: pull food goods making sure they’re up to date, swap out the gallon water jugs, add/remove a wool blanket depending on temp outside and so on. Always try to keep a current well built kit, it CAN save yours or someone else’s life someday. Yes, it’s THAT important...😉✌🏼Good stuff Cody, thanks for putting this out there again.

    I have a very similar kit built up for each of my vehicles. Two quick recommendations.
    #1 - Add a few rags. Something to wipe hands or anything else that gets really dirty. Nothing special, just enough to wipe heavy grease, dirt, or water away.
    #2 - Repackage your extra AA flashlight batteries into one of the Storacall battery holders. You introduced me to them in a previous video many many moons ago. I’m disappointed you left your AA’s in the small cardboard box and not the Storacell. That box will tear, get soggy, and slowly disintegrate over time.

    I can't argue with your picks Cody. I would recommend having two or three Space Blankets in the kit just because. Some army wool blankets paired up with the Space Blankets is a hard combo to beat.
    Something I toss in the back of my Toyota arr strips of old carpet to be used as traction pads.
    A spray bottle filled with straight bleach sprayed on the tires will also improve their traction if you just need something to get you going.

    Your videos are so well made. And are very useful too! I live on a 26 acre farm. (7 acres of open fields and garden) and the rest is forest. And I have had the best of luck with your survival kits and wood chopping tips. They have helped me over the years so much, and I thank you for that. This winter is gonna be harsh says the farmer’s almanac, so I’m getting ready. I’m down in western Maryland, and although im pretty southern, the only thing that heats my house, is a wood stove. And I’m always going through wood. Your tips have helped me Keep warm and have a readily stock of wood. I enjoy your videos. Simple, informative, entertaining, and enjoyable. Thank you for the videos and god bless.

    PSA: Lithium batteries die in the cold! If you live somewhere cold, use alkaline for your flashlight. Also, don't expect your battery bank to live in the cold.

      Ive read that rechargeable Lithiums aren't good for freezing temps but the regular non rechargeable Lithiums like by Energizer can stand really cold weather. I know 1st hand they are waaay better than alkaline in around 30F temps

    Hey Cody,
    I felt just like you about cable chains until I got to try a set of Peerless Auto Trak self ratcheting cable chains.
    I was given the first set for review and was so impressed I now always keep a set in my truck for winter.
    Definitely worth a look.

    I would add a few hand warmers. Those things saved my hands once, coming back from snowshoeing. The snow started falling and my hands were wet and frozen. The only other time I used them was during a soccer game in the snow. I carry a set with me in my jacket pocket wherever I go. You never know when you might misjudge the weather or your capabilities.

    I wouldn't rely on those foldable shovels. There's a reason why military units keep 24" steel digging shovels around. They're under $20 and last a lifetime. Toss one in each automobile.

      @@kadmow the smaller grain shovel shape is good for cutting 50 lb blocks of snow when you need to move lots of volume just faster to use than a small tradesman style shovel or even worse a survival shovel, even skiing we carry shovels that wont fit in a 40 l ( 10 gallon) pack for avy rescue.

    Another great fire starter can be made with the pressed paper egg cartons! Fill them with wood chips and candle wax. They can be easily broken into easy to light cubes!
