I also carry something similar to this kit. Mine is still in the making but it is in two parts held together in a water proof bag ( not ziplock). The first compartment is a round tin ( that formerly housed some cherry cough lollies), this tin holds almost identical gear to your pocket survival kit. Second is the shelter part which has a ponch ( if i can fit it i will replace this with a thin tarp) and a milar blanket. Some small things in the bag include a medical kit with some gauze pads and some allergy tablets, a streamlight stylus pro ( because it is the perfect size for my kit) and a small campin stove that takes fuel tablets which i can use with my tin to boil about 180ml of water. Also lastly since i cant fit a water bottle i carry a collapsable platipus which holds about a litre. The kit is only a last resort/ slash backup.

This is awesome stuff, very well thought out. Some spin offs are: a tri-ox (fuel tab) inside a clean cat food can, top with 2 stripper clips, put your tin can ontop, instant volcano stove. one can fits inside the other, a 500ml water bottle and the stripper clips fit in the bean can. put inside an old sock. A small coffee can with some charcoal briquets inside. mini habachi. Some hard candy, and gum could be added to help fight thirst. Instant coffee and drink tube packs are small and easy to pack.
The skys the limit, this is all good stuff. |

I've gotta ask, why spleda and not real sugar? Everything else seems pretty well thought out, might make different choices but I see why you made the ones you did. But I can't see the advantage of calorie free sweetness, do you know something I don't about splenda or is just there for aesthetic value of sweet yet guilt free tea?

It's well thought out and all, but why not just use a backpack?
