- Teimojin from @SurvivalDoctors takes us through emergency supplies he carries with him when he goes out to backcountry. This gear will help you treat emergency medical conditions, stay warm, hydrate and self rescue if you ever become lost in a non-urban environment while backpacking, hiking, climbing or just adventuring.
Please note that not everyone has the same needs/wants and this video is meant to give you ideas for supplies to pack, NOT to tell you what everyone absolutely needs.
WARNING: If you carry a folding knife or multi-tool, DO NOT USE the back of the blade to strike the ferro rod unless you are EXTREMELY careful to not snap the blade shut across your fingers. That's a surefire way to actually NEED that first aid kit! Great video! Appreciate the high-quality content.
Nice tip for safety especially if you don’t have a reliable locking system on your switchblade or multitool. You can strike with the knife folded. I trust my locking mechanism on my leatherman and often use the blade to manipulate the tinder to my firelay setup but you can use a stick or something after your strike.
Pro tips kids
@@SurvivalDoctorsI was planing on doing it with my leather man and I think I'll test out striking on the grip and if I need too ill make a finish too the grip to promote striking cuz blades do one thing and locks tend to have the possibility of failure I ain't risking no more fingers not if I can help It
Seems kinda obvious Lol 😂
If all you have is a folder, use it in the closed position to strike along your ferro rod.
Good info. I’d also recommend “Gray Bearded Green Beret” where Josh walks through survival needs & priorities as well as specific gear recommendations . I think between these two guys, one could get a fantastic setup for backcountry
First time in CO my buddy and I drove to meet a friend up at monarch crest trail for a ride, it was sunny and 80 deg out, inevitably it rained mid day and at that altitude it turned to hail and snow. Being from the east coast we had no idea and found ourselves in teeshirts halfway into an 8 hour ride in a snow storm. The survival blanket I brought (XL one from sol rescue) saved the three of us, we had to bivy for a few hours and managed to hold off hypothermia. Major shit show, and lessons were learned.
In the spirit of making the things you carry as multipurpose as possible, apparently you can make up a wound disinfectant/ irrigation solution with chlorine water purification tablets. The ratio I´ve seen recommended is the amount of tablets you´d use to purify 1l (1000 ccm) of water for drinking in either 0.3l (300 ccm) for wound irrigation or 3-5 ml (3-5 ccm) for disinfection. That method isn´t without issues because the resulting solution is acidic, and might damage healthy tissue provided you don´t add a base to buffer. For this reason it´s recommended you don´t treat any injury more than once.
In anticipation of ever having to do this you can stash a backup water purification kit ( chlorine tablets, WhirlPak bag, maybe also a few coffee filters) or other emrgency supplies inside a graduated centrifuge tube (a.k.a. Eppendorf tube) since it doubles as a measure for small amounts of liquid.
Great concept! Thanks for bringing that information out. Makes my job easier as SAR.
Nice info, especially on your medical kit. I have taught hundreds of people friction fire and if in a real survival situation, I would much rather have a lighter, matches and ferro rod. A signal mirror and whistle would be a great addition to your kit. You may think you are lost but then spot a hiker off in the distance, your voice may not carry, however a mirror or whistle can get their attention. This would apply if you are hurt and can’t walk as well. Good call on the PLB, no reason not to have one these days. Lastly, I tell my students to carry 3 days of their Rx meds in case they wind up in a survival situation.
Great tips! I had a whistle on my bag that I forgot to mention :)
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Nicely done guys..more please..Best wishes from Wales 🏴
❤ very nice explanation
Hiya here in the uk the majority of people carry either a combination or stand alone of a bothy bag which is a bright orange parachute type shelter which completely encloses you and a few other people while awaiting rescue. Bright orange and good protection even for just having you’re lunch in while out in bad conditions. As our mountain ranges are all quite rocky and craggy so offer very limited ways to setup a tarp or similar shelter. And then in addition to this also carry a survival Bivy bag. For me personally I put a massive emphasis on major bleeding and signalling. Signalling starts with your colour clothing, because if you’re knocked unconscious no one will find you in dark colours. Orange panel (in my case bivvy bag) Signal mirror, whistle and then a 12hr light stick out of packaging with cord tied to it which allows you to make a buzz saw with it. And a PLB. Navigation isn’t optional item, if you’re going wherever you’re going you must have the ability to orientate yourself.
What a great video!
Thanks!
The extreme post it’s ( they are a tough, water proof style of the post it’s) are amazing for fire/ note taking!
Well done.....
1 of the best iv seen 👍🏻
Thanks!
AND a Gurka guide to carry all that shit
Alas! 👏👏👏
nice!
Very good video. I was suprised to see most of the kit is identical to my day hike gear. Though I use a ham radio over the sat phoone. Ive spent the last few years figuring out how to hit a repeater with a dual band 4-5 watt unit in my local hike areas. I can also improvise a jungle antenna to increace my TX and RX.
do more swat medic videos
Head warming is also important.
Using the metal canteen like the old days bed warmer but for your body a great idea I have not heard before and I am a long time prepper. Yes, the titanium canteen is light but is also very expensive.🤙🏻
Great info. Wonder if he is related to his name sake. Atilla the hun
Thumb up #267
Repping Eldora? Good man.
Hahaha I used to be a volunteer medic patroller with them… they didn’t like my RUclips channel and did not invite me back for a 3rd season 😂
@@PrepMedic that is too bad! You would be a great asset up there.
@@PrepMedic Spent 9 years at Eldora as a volunteer ski patroller. They do have some interesting work-related politics. I have moved on to another patrol. As a first responder in Colorado finding your channel helpful and informative.
He was my pick to win :/
Maybe next time 👀
@@SurvivalDoctors i posted on your channel saying you were my pick. I used your hot rock bed idea this past year. Thanks!
@@SurvivalDoctors I'd like to suggest an addition. If you carry a bag of brightly colored balloons, they can be used very effectively as a visual detection tool for rescue. I keep a roll of string and a bit of gorilla tape to attach the string to a rock or battery. Toss the string over a branch that's visible to aircraft and hoist a few balloons up. They weigh nothing and you can carry 100 of them easily.
@@reellifeoutdoors2905 right on! I just got a place in Maine that came with a brick fireplace! Excited to modify that into a rocket stove pizza oven!!!
@@patrickhenry8425 nice! I haven’t heard of that one! One thing I do to my Mylar tarps is duct taping 3 X’s on the shiny side for signaling as well
Why does Sam look like an aryan brotherhood member who just escaped prison and is living in the woods now…😂😂 nah I’m jk love the video!!
Um um um um um um um um
