Any survivalist or bushcrafter knows that a crisis won’t wait for sunny weather.
Whether it’s a cold spring night or a frigid winter day, the environment itself becomes a hazard that you’ll have to mitigate.
All survival is critically dependent on one, simple objective: keeping your core temperature within the range required for sustaining human life. Whereas sickness will cause your core temp to rise above what is healthy, hypothermia does the exact opposite (and death, of course, will bring it down to the same temperature that everything else happens to be at the time of passing).
So that’s why, in these seven essentials for your survival kit, I selected heat-generating gear items that are multi-purpose: They’ll keep you warm AND perform an additional function.
1. Winter Survival Blanket
Don’t let the name fool you. Sure, this amazing item is great during the winter, but it works just as well on a spring or fall night when temperatures are hovering around 32 or even 0. What is it? It’s a compact blanket that – when plugged into another great survival device, the Pocket Power Plus — will keep you warm for hours. Use the Winter Survival Blanket when out in the wilderness, when stuck on the side of the road, even when sitting in a deer stand.
