10 things you need to carry .....

10 C’s of Survivability - Always carry these in your bug out bag
  1. Cutting Tool (Survival knife preferably full tang or fixed blade)
  2. Combustion (2 Sources other than bic or zippo… Flint, Ferro rod, and Steel)
  3. Cordage (550 Para-cord recommended- no less than 100 feet)
  4. Container {for water} – Stainless steel for boiling/water purification
  5. Cover/Tent (6’x8’ tarp or larger)

  1. Compass (2 quality compasses- lensatic are recommended)
  2. Cargo pack (sturdy ruck pack, add duct tape – tactical colors- Brown, OD Green, Multicam)
  3. Candle (Flashlight with red lens for night use with back up batteries)
  4. Combo Tool (multi-tool)
  5. Cloth (100% cotton fabric – t-shirt, or bandana – minimum of 4)
These are the bare minimum items that you will need for a survival situation. You can add other items as you see fit. Keep in mind to leave enough room in your ruck pack for the weight and space of food, water, and ammo, first aid and trauma kit, and your other gear.
