Good setup but I'd add a small tarp or poncho and cordage for weather protection. Also make sure your clothing is appropriate for possible weather change situations. Thanks Clint.
thats gonna be my next episode. These were the 5 you should have regardless. im trying to break it down so people can absorb it a lil at at time. if that makes sense. thanks for watching and supporting the channel for so long jon. God bless ya friend.
@@MountainSurvival I disagree. The 5 Essential Tools are, 1 Cutting tool, 2 Shelter, 3 Fire, 4 Water, 5 Food. Try to be warm without a Shelter while a pouring rain is raining on you or a cold wind blowing cold air between the woven of your clothing. Hello Hypothermia! Ask Survival Lilly what happened to her. She'll never make that mistake again.
My first item: TELL SOMEONE WHERE YOU ARE GOING AND WHEN YOU WILL RETURN. Those other things may buy you time until you are rescued or found. Someone else knowing where you are going and how long you expect to be gone does not diminish your adventure one iota. Thinking otherwise is ego talking.
My 5 Essential tools- 1- Cutting Tool- A Belt Carbon Steel knife like a Mora Garberg. You can cut down a 4" tree trunk. You can create a Bow drill for fire making. You can use your knife as Flint and Steel for fire making. You can replace an Axe with your knife. 2- Shelter- SOL Emergency Blanket. It replaces a Poncho, a tarp, a tent for shelter. Cover yourself from head to toe, It will protect you from Wind, Rain, Snow, Cold temperature. After covering yourself, if you put a candle between your legs, it will get the chill out of your body. Forget the cheap Mylar blankets, they are not strong enough nor long enough. 3- Combustion - Ferro Rod, Flint and Steel kit, Magnify Lens, , lighter. 4 - Container - A Metal Military Canteen Water Bottle/Cup/Stove set. By boiling water in the Canteen bottle, you can use it as a hot water bottle to keep you warm. You can disinfect water or make yourself a pine hot tea. 5- Cordage. 6-For Protection - Bear pepper spray works 10 x better than a gun. When you can't breath, you hurt no one whether you are Human or Animal. For First Aid - Nature is full of First Aid Items like Pine sap is Antiseptic. Thanks
@@Elias.Agg. those are all great things to have as well. But you could survive a day or three without them. Stay tuned the next video will be adding to this one.
Hello 👋 my outdoors friend, thank you for sharing this informative video. You did a fine job in presenting the information. My items of choice when venturing into the outdoors are as follows: a military web waist belt and attached to it is a canteen kit, with cup and lid. Also in the kit is a lighter, matches, water purification tablets and a multi tool. I wear a light wt. multi pocket fishing vest. In the vest pockets I have a head lamp with Xtra batteries, a compass, 1 pair of leather gloves, 1 small flashlight 🔦, a whistle, 1 bandana, a map of the area, a mini survival blanket and a small 1st aid ⛑️ kit. I usually include some energy bars. Last, but not least, is my 9 shot .22 revolver with a handful of extra rounds. Sorry to be so long winded. Stay safe out there 🏕️ my friend. 😊
👍 .. a good share. Opinions will differ regarding your list. What one carries will depend on the environment and circumstances. From young, back in the 1950's my late Mom had a Mantra, "When you go out, take a Jersey." This engrained the habit in me to always dress appropriately for what I was about to get up to .. 'Shelter' being my first priority. This would include protection against inclement weather .. rain, heat, cold, etc. The 'Rule of Three' is worth noting. Aspiration / Shelter / Hydration / Nutrition .. Minutes / Hours / Days / Weeks. Under the right (wrong) conditions, one could quite easily be toast. I follow the Dave Canterbury '10 C's of Survival and what I take with me, depends on, and will differ, depending on what I have planned (and for possible hiccups). That said .. on the top of my bedroom chest of drawers is (and what accompanies me no matter what or where .. over and above everything else): Swiss Army Knife wrapped in a Cotton Handkerchief with some Paper Towels .. Mini BIC lighter .. Duct Tape wrapped around an old Credit Card .. Roll of Cordage .. Mini Cut Kit that includes Water Pure Tabs .. Loo Kit (I'm 74 yrs old 🙄😏) .. Opinel Folder in a Belt Pouch .. Whistle .. Water Flask and Mobile Phone. The above-mentioned may seem to be a lot but actually, it takes up very little space about one's body and clothing. One soon gets used to having it on board. Order .. a Place for Everything and Everything in it's Place. Thanks for the share. Hopefully those who need it most will read and heed 🤞. Take care ..
Hey thomas, i can agree with everything you said. i carry alot on my person daily as well, not because im scared i may need them but because i use them everyday. thanks for the comment, God bless!!
Great selection of essential kit. Can I humbly suggest that you add two lightweight survival whistles to your kit. One on you, one on the outside of your pack, in case your hands/arms are injured or pinned. My recommendation would be for the US military aviator survival whistle from ACR, or the ACME/HUDSON's Tornado. Always take my Mora Kansbol and a SAK. Additionally, I always have a canteen cup or small mess tin/cooking pot with me to boil water. Happy Trails
i actually keep a storm whistle in my pack and a tops triple tunnel in my knife sheath that stays on my side. we have found people in the gorge that had a whistle. they could hardly blow it but it was enough for us to hear them. thanks for watching.
@@MountainSurvival This sounds a bit morbid, but is a genuine question. Did you ever find/rescue folk that would have been rescued/saved far earlier if they had had a whistle they could use ?
@@clivedunning4317 yes, found people 10 feet from the trail, been walked by several times but due to lush vegetation were unable to see them. A simple whistle or air horn. Really anything could have saved them.
I was once on a scenic walk with people we were only going for 45 minutes - I grabbed my first aid pouch (some band aids, alcohol wipes, betadine, tea tree oil & bandages with triangular bandage) 1/2 way there we were stopped by a group with the youngest suffering a bee sting. With a swipe of my ID Pass (get into the parking area), I swiped the stinger out & treated the wound. I looked at the parents who were unprepared on this walk from the carpark. The most basic first aid kit helped this young girl asap. I showed this to the group & they fobbed it off as not interested.
@@matthewbrown6163 yeah, unfortunately people think nothing is ever gonna happen to them or their crew, which is not true. Or they r just simply too lazy to carry a small pack on their back.
👍 Kudos to you. There will always be those who mock and scoff at those who 'like to be prepared'. They also probably are those who end up as 'statistics' or having played the 'lead roles' in some outdoor incident with a bad ending. Ignore them and continue doing what is good for you.
Also, a gun can be used to signal for help. Rule of 3. 3 shots wait. wait anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour and fire 3 shots. Hoping to hear a 2 shot response from the searcher/rescuers.
I would probably miss a good full tang knife. On the other hand, the pistol seems more or less useless to me - how many times a month does one need to shoot. Especially when I don't have a small caliber, but only a .45, which is big and especially heavy. I would rather consider a blowgun for harvest small edible prey. Good video, like.
the one shown in this video is the leatherman REV. i also have the leatherman super tool 300. i keep in my back pack. the Rev is a good pocket carry, it has pocket clip, and you can open the knife blade without opening the pliers like most multi tools. thanks for watching friend.
Some great items... Some of these are what i carry going into the wilderness of Canada. Like Ky my area has hawlers streams ect... Do go in having a knife or multie tool a lighter or an easyer way to make fire then rubbing sticks together... As well as some way to purify water... Lastly knowledge but thats a skill set all on its own... This is why the outdoor community some of these videos... As always stay awsome cheers
Missing? A water bottle or canteen and a good cutting tool such as a knife or hatchet. Also.. Navigation compass and small flashlight. Other than that, You got most of it covered. End.
I keep a Bic in my pocket and a Peanut lighter inside of a ziploc bag in my pack I always have a keychain flashlight and ferrorord. and a fresnel lense in my wallet. Somebody else's 10 or so tems might weigh less and have less bulk than your 5 items and it's the weight and bulk that limit you, not the number of items. I aint going anywhere without my 6" long, 16 oz 9mm in my kydex front pants pocket. You have to have 2 qts of water to last half a day, if you're doing much of anything and that's 4 lbs. I aint going anywhere without a lb of food. You need hydration and energy out there so that you dont make bad decisions. I take some nut butter, jerky, Koolaid, electrolytes, granola, powdered milk then you'll have 2500 calories, protein ,fats, carbs . and no need to cook any of it You CAN of course warm it up, if you wish if that makes you feel better. My pack(s). shelter/sleep gear and clothing totals 9 lbs and can handle 34F, high winds and rain, as well as 100 F and bugs in just cammies and cap. Need a few medical items, UCO lantern and reflector, and a couple of beeswax candles, canteen cup water filter and carry bag . Trekking poles help PREVENT injuries and help you walk to a sheltered area if you DO get hurt, or sick. So Im up to almost 20 lbs and you're nuts to go anywhere with less or without a satellite phone and GPS locator. All it takes is to hurt your knee or ankle and boom, it's very hard for you to make a shelter, or keep a fire going. The poles can hold your shelter or bugnet up up off of you I favor a hammock cause it solves so many problems and mine can feed me, if need be, since it's made of 50x10ft of 2" mesh monofilament gillnet. It can become 100 x 5 ft of gillnet, or seine, Given a baited weir, set in 18" of water, a seine can push a LOT of fish from 4 ft deep water into the weir, and it can be done 3-4x per day. Butcher your catch in the weir, and put bags of fishheads and guts tied to the inside far end of the weir. Cambium can be diced up, boiled and fried, mixed with fish oil, it's life-sustaining.
Good setup but I'd add a small tarp or poncho and cordage for weather protection. Also make sure your clothing is appropriate for possible weather change situations. Thanks Clint.

Hi God is the survival expert
No Poncho?
First aid kit review please.
@@jamesmcgee2447 video will be out tomorrow. Thanks for watching.
Hey Clint great info by the way what multitool did you have in the video thanks
the one shown in this video is the leatherman REV. i also have the leatherman super tool 300. i keep in my back pack. the Rev is a good pocket carry, it has pocket clip, and you can open the knife blade without opening the pliers like most multi tools. thanks for watching friend.
Extra ammo for the firearm. Great video.
Always Ammo and water and fire rule 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Some great items... Some of these are what i carry going into the wilderness of Canada.
Like Ky my area has hawlers streams ect... Do go in having a knife or multie tool a lighter or an easyer way to make fire then rubbing sticks together... As well as some way to purify water... Lastly knowledge but thats a skill set all on its own... This is why the outdoor community some of these videos... As always stay awsome cheers
You could easily add 5 more items to your list without taking too much space…
Missing? A water bottle or canteen and a good cutting tool such as a knife or hatchet. Also.. Navigation compass and small flashlight. Other than that, You got most of it covered. End.
Without gear. We are all screwed.
