Hello folks-
I was a little bored this morning and decided to snap a picture of what I put in my small 'possibles' bag. I posted a pic of it a while back, but I've changed up the contents a bit. This is a small bag that I have on my shoulder when I'm just bumming around the woods for a hike or if I'm going a bit 'minimalist' for the night. It is sometimes accompanied by a small daypack with a bladder in it, that will contain a tarp, bigger first aid kit, hatchet, food and small pot.
The pouch itself is a 10 cent find at a clearance rack, the strap is an AK sling. The contents of this pouch are not meant to be any sort of 'survival' kit, but just a few of the things I need more frequently and want closer to my person. However, if I was left with only these items I'd be more than covered for a good while. If the pics are too similar to ones in the past, forgive the redundancy! (Oh, the second fixed blade and any items above the strap don't come along, they just got included in the pic by accident)
My 'fire kit' (Firesteel, fatwood, 'waterproofed' tampon, BIC and foil):
The closest thing to an emergency kit I have, always on my hip (Magnesium firestarter, LED, hacksaw piece, whistle, Lansky ceramic rod):
The blade that I've grown to love, and have shown way to many pictures of:
Cool $10 Tasco 10x25 monocular I found (usually in pack):
Overall contents of pouch:
- bandana
- LED light
- paracord
- twine
- orange nylon cordage
- Opinel #7
- Fire kit
- poncho
- chlorine tabs
- plastic ziploc type bag for emergency water carrying
- duct tape
- mini first aid kit in eclipse tin (various meds, antibiotic ointment, bandaids)
The main redundancies in my kit and other gear concern getting fire, clean water, and light.
Thanks for letting me share!
I'd love to hear about and see any pics of what others like to include in their kits or possibles bags.
I really enjoy the kits that see use, rather than survival kits.
