Camping Table

This Camping Table is awesome. It folds up so its is easy to take wherever I need it. The legs are height adjustable so I can still level it out even on uneven ground. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen people struggling to prep for dinner on rocks, the ground, or on the edge of a tarp. Screw that, I bring my Camping Table when I go camping and everything is right there where I need it to prep and cook. It is perfect for tailgating, car camping, everyday BBQs and pretty much any and every time you need to set up food and fun outside.

It is often the little things we take for granted. What happens if I have to bug out and set up in the woods? Sure I can make a table if I have some tools and time. But, having this Camping Table means I can use that time to handle other more critical tasks like security or recovering food and supply caches. It also means I can keep my head up more instead of being focused on the ground while working. Have you ever tried to disassemble and clean a weapon on the ground? It sucks.

Camping Table Scoring

Portable Camping Stove

This Portable Camping Stove has saved my butt on so many occasions. I head to campsite and find it so picked over there is barely enough wood to start a small fire. It was one of those trips which made me go out and buy this Portable Stove. It is very fuel efficient, and can be fed anything from sticks to charcoal, or anything burnable. That gives you a lot of options to generate heat for warmth or cooking.

Post disaster this Portable Stove not only gives you fuel efficient options, but also discrete ones. Because it burns hot it minimizes smoke. That means that if you are trying not to attract the attention of other desperate survivors, you can still cook or boil water. Post Zombie Apocalypse, foraging for fuel isn’t going to be a lot of fun, but with this Camping Stove you can optimize how long you can go before having to go back out for more wood, because who wants to eat cold food? That is where this Stove shines.

Hammock

Once the power goes out, a lot of people are going to realize how uncomfortable it is to sleep with no air conditioners. It is hard to sleep when you are sweating through the sheets. My buddies cabin is amazing, but its relatively small and I much prefer to put up my Camping Hammock outside and enjoy whatever breeze there is. This Hammock also includes an integrated fly netting so you can sleep without getting eaten alive.

I keep one of these Hammocks with my Camping Gear and a bunch more at my bolt hole. If you are lucky enough to be a surprise guest at my cabin you might just get to see what the series of eye hooks along the back wall are for. I can easily set up four of these Hammocks in that space for indoor sleeping. Of course if my guests want to sleep outside they can just set up between two trees. These Hammocks give me a ton of flexibility in setting up sleeping arrangements.

The other beautiful thing about this Hammock is that once the Zombies start swarming you can put this up high between two trees so you don’t get woken up with your face being bitten off. This is especially useful if you are travelling alone, because its hard to stay alert 100% of the time.

Comprehensive First Aid Kit

This Comprehensive First Aid Kit is the perfect kit for you and your friends. Make sure you can take care of those minor injuries safely! I like this kit because it is small enough to pack up or strap to a pack but has enough First Aid Gear to handle multiple small injuries. That makes it perfect for group hikes, cycling outings, or even just going out to play some backyard sports with your friends.

After a major disaster there are some supplies that will be worth their weight in gold. Water Filters will obviously be high on that list. Next will be Medical Supplies. Bottom line, you can not have enough First Aid Gear. I suggest planning as if everywhere you might be when a disaster happens is exactly where you will be. That means critical supplies in your vehicle, with your go bag, and more at your home and bolt hole. When you need this First Aid Kit you will be glad you went overboard and had them stashed everywhere you might possibly need them.

Comprehensive First Aid Kit Scoring

This Comprehensive First Aid Kit can have a High Impact on your survival and scores a 830/1000.

Be prepared, don’t go out into the woods or out to play without a Comprehensive First Aid Kit.

What this Game does provide is an outlet for some fun in what is likely to be a very stressful time. Of course you will need food and water to survive.

Hand Crank & Solar Flashlight

This Hand Crank & Solar Powered Flashlight means you never have to worry about running out of batteries again. You can strap it to the top of your pack to let the sun charge it during the day. What if its a rainy overcast day? No worries, you can just use a bit of hand power to turn the crank and you are good to go.

We tend to take things like electricity and light for granted. I learned that lesson the hard way twenty years ago in India. I was in a high rise hotel and everyday we lost power for a few hours at night. Which was when I was actually in the room after working all day. These were the days before every cell phone had a flashlight. Ever since then I’ve packed something like this Flashlight in my bag when traveling. There is nothing worse than being in a strange place in the dark.

Hand Crank & Solar Flashlight Scoring

This Hand Crank & Solar Powered Flashlight can have a High Impact on your survival and scores a 516/1000. It is hard to survive what you can’t see coming. When the lights go out for good you will be glad you have this Flashlight to see what is creeping up on you in the dark.

Waterproof /Windproof Rain Pants

When the wind picks up the weather turns foul you will be glad you have these Waterproof /Windproof Rain Pants. There is nothing worse than hiking in wet weather without Rain Pants. Your upper body is nice and dry but your legs get soaked. My Columbia Jacket is awesome but it just sheds all the water onto my legs in the rain. Thankfully you can just keep these Rain Pants in your bag and when the weather turns nasty you can slip them on. These Rain Pants will both keep you dry and keep the wind from biting into you. Even in warm weather a cold rain can sap your strength if you are not careful.

Besides the obvious use when its raining, these Waterproof /Windproof Rain Pants are also awesome after it stops. If you are hiking through wet vegetation you don’t have to worry about getting soaked from transfer. I also wear them in leech country. I keep a few rubber bands in my bag to synch around my ankles and I’m good to go.

These Rain Pants are also great at cutting through the wind. Even when its warm, if the wind is whipping, it is easy to catch a chill. That makes these Rain Pants an important bit of Wet Weather Gear.

Waterproof /Windproof Rain Pants Scoring

These Waterproof /Windproof Rain Pants can have a High Impact on your survival and score a 515/1000.

  • Perfect for hiking, camping, cycling, fishing, and traveling.

Titanium Pot Backpacking Mug

I have cooked so many meals in this Titanium Pot Backpacking Mug. It is the perfect size for me to make a one pot meal in and light enough that I can take it anywhere. Need to boil water? Not a problem. Want to make a huge cup of coffee? This 900ml Mug has you covered. This Pot/Mug hits that perfect goldilocks zone of size. It is big enough to make something for two, but its also perfect if you are just cooking for yourself. It has a lid and a carry bag so you can strap it to the outside of your pack if you are tight on space. If you are weighing every ounce, or just want a piece of gear that will last forever, choosing this Titanium Mug is easy.

I am a huge fan of Valtcan gear. I’ve had a few flasks over the years and they all eventually resulted in some alteration of whatever I put in them, but the Valtcan flask is non reactive as its Titanium. They make quality products, which is why I was so excited to purchase this Titanium Pot Backpacking Mug. It is perfect for its designed use – which is heating up and then drinking fluids, soups, food while camping and hiking. However, it is also freezing cold out, and I keep one in my vehicle stuffed with a bit of fire starter gear – because if my family or myself get stuck out on the highway in the snow, we will be able to start a fire, and heat up some water at the very least.

Titanium Pot Backpacking Mug Scoring

This Titanium Pot Backpacking Mug can have a High Impact on your survival and scores a 514/1000. Clean water is critical to survival and this Pot/Mug makes boiling water easy and simple. It is also an excellent cooking vessel.

As far as I am concerned you can never go wrong with anything that Valtcan makes.

  • 100% Titanium camping pot mug.
  • 900 ml or 34 fl oz with Lid and mesh bag.
  • Efficient water Boiling.
  • Ultra lightweight for camping, bush craft.

Portable Solar Power Bank

This Portable Solar Power Bank is a must have for every hiker, camper, and anyone interested in survival. Most of us just it for granted. We flip a switch and we have power. Once the power grid goes down there are going to be a lot of panicking people. They didn’t plan head, and now they have no power for their cell phones, GPS units, and flashlights. It is not going to be pretty.

Do you like to hike but want to keep your gear powered up? This Solar Power Bank is just what you need. It also conveniently straps to your pack so you can charge up its batteries while you hike. That means when you stop to rest you can use your electronic gear, power a few lights, or just listen to music without feeling like you are using up critical battery power.

Ferro Rod Fire Starter

This Ferro Rod Fire Starter is a must have for your kit. Matches can be ruined in the rain or not stay lit long enough to start a fire in the wind. Fire is primal and its honestly just about as important as water to long term survival. Without fire you can’t cook, boil water to make it safe, or warm yourself after a day out in the cold. Thankfully this Ferro Rod Fire Starter is a safe and easy way to make sure you always have the tools needed to start a Fire regardless of the weather.

My personal experience is that this Ferro Rod is all around better than matches and lighters. When you get a good spark off the Rod it is super hot. This Rod can create a spark that is 3,000 °F to 6,000 °F. Compare that with a match flame which is 600 °F to 800 °F. You see how having this Ferro Rod in wet and windy weather is better than matches.

When it comes to durability, you’d have to have 15,000 matches to be able to start the same number of fires as this Ferro Rod. If you want something that is water poof and can last a long time you can’t go wrong with this Ferro Rod.

Ferro Rod Fire Starter Scoring

This Ferro Rod Fire Starter can have a High Impact on your survival and scores a 513/1000. Fire gives you the ability to create light, cook, and boil water. Those are critical tasks when a disaster has take out the grid and the water purification plants.

  • Throws 5,500°F sparks to start fires in all conditions.
  • Magnesium blend will last for over 15,000 strikes!
  • Handcrafted cherry wood handle with a comfortable grip.
  • Flint + Striker weighs 2.3 oz.
  • Great for backpacking, hiking, and camping!
