Shelter (Budget Bugout)
Here comes the rain again...
Again, we've got you covered. Literally.
- Emergency Rain Poncho - picture flash storm at Disney World, yes that disposable style thin plastic poncho
- Foil Mylar Rescue Blanket - surprisingly good at reflecting heat for how thin and light these blankets are and proves to be an effective windbreak.
- Cigarette Case Size Dry Box, Tinderbox w/ Bic Lighter and Waterproof Matches - included under shelter is fire for heat and cooking. The first pair is your good ol' faithful bic lighter and safety matches. Use the tin box to store primed tinder for the next fire. I like to fill it with some coals from last fire and dry grass and twigs. You can always throw some dryer lint in there to start as well. Use the dry box to carry your lighter, matches and flint or use for other purposes.
- Magnesium Fire Starter - conveniently packaged flint and steel sparker with plenty of Magnesium to scrape off shavings to kick start your next fire.
- Heat Resistant Glove - life saver when you're trying to cook by fire.
- 2-person Hammock - 500 lb capacity hammock excellent for both relaxing with your feet up or sleeping under the stars. Practically, a mental health "must-have".
- Emergency Tent - a simple tube tent to get you and your gear out of the elements
- Camp Axe w/ sheath - if you've done much camping you know this ubiquitous axe. Commonly used to drive tent spikes in the ground and then go bust up some kindling. Also doesn't hurt that it's presence may dissuade the wrong kind from thinking you are an undefended target.
