Survival Kits

In addition to surviving outdoors, events such as human and man-made disasters are other factors to consider when creating or purchasing a survival kit.

What Goes In A Survival Kit

Basic survival kits should contain enough provisions to sustain a person for a minimum of 72 hours. Each kit should have food and water provisions, iodine or water purification tables, a first aid kit, basic medications, emergency blankets, signaling devices, and more. For a complete list select one of the following kits:

• Cold Climate Kit
