It is great, very nice PSK. I like it alot.
Doc,
These look great! :thumbup:
Thinking about the lost hiker/person I would like to suggest something following your notes about the Rule of 3's.
The rule of 3's covers each basic ingedient needed to sustain life and survive.
So, my thinking is a circle for each one.
3 minutes without Air: that circle would contain the basics for making sure you don't drown, suffocate, etc.
3 hours without shelter: To Riley's point, this would give a picture of 2 or 3 types of shelters and suggestion like start building 2 to 3 hours before dark, keep it cozy to retain body heat, insualte yourself from cold ground, that kind of thing. not how to actually build the shelter, but the basic concepts included in a shelter.
3 days with water: This one would include how to find, gather, purify and store water. Again, very basic due to size contraints.
3 weeks without food: traps, snares, edibles, etc.
Also, besides the circle format, if anyone were inclined, they could make rectangular notes, same as Docs, make them the width and length of your knife sheath, store them on the back of sheath using ranger bands or the like.
Or PSK sized for a person's particular PSK.
Or credit card sized for urban survival.
Good job Doc! :thumbup::thumbup:
