Portable Camping Stove

TJ Provost 1 Comment

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

TJ Provost Leave a comment

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.

Sports Wagon

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Sports Wagon is a lifesaver. The wheels are large enough to roll over gravel, grass, and even dirt trails. That means I can use it to haul gear just about anywhere. We use this Wagon to haul just about everything. It is awesome to lug groceries to our cabin. It is also great to haul fishing gear down to the river. We love to shoot clays. This Wagon has carried thousands of clay out to the field so we can launch them and shoot them out of the air.

When it comes to a disaster situation, this Sports Wagon becomes even more important. It gives me the ability to move gear quickly and quietly while giving me the ability to drop the handle and be free to run if I have to. That may seem like an odd benefit to call out but when things go to hell in a hand basket I’d rather leave behind my gear than die for it. It also means if I need to fight, my gear isn’t on my back weighing me down.

This Wagon not only gives me the ability to move gear, but also the ability to Scavenge effectively. When the majority of people have died because they failed to prepare, there is going to be a lot of useful gear around. This https://undead-earth.com/tag/scavenging/ gives you the ability to Scavenge it effectively and drag it back to your bolt hole. Sure a truck might seem like a great idea, but a truck is useless when the roads are clogged with vehicles.

Sports Wagon Scoring

This Sports Wagon can have a High Impact on your survival and scores a 761/1000.

  • Sets up in seconds, No assembly required!
  • Wagon folds to only 8″ thick!
  • Weighs 24.5 Lbs.
  • The heavy duty frame allows loads up to 150 lbs.
  • Perfect for hauling gear to outdoor sporting events.
  • Please note that it is NOT made to transport children.

Titanium Hip Flask

TJ Provost Leave a comment

I bought my Valtcan Titanium Hip Flask as a present for myself as I was going to a wedding and I was afraid the open bar wouldn’t have any drinkable whiskey. Yes, my wife calls me a Whiskey Snob but I don’t care. This Titanium Flask is ultra lightweight, and because it is Titanium I know its non-reactive and won’t change the taste of whatever precious whiskey I put inside it. It won’t leach into whatever I put in it and it won’t pick up odors or flavors over time. I can wash it, rinse it, and every drop of that previous liquid I put into it is just as good as it gets.

If you have a Whiskey Lover in your life, they will be incredibly happy to open this Valtcan Titanium Hip Flask. It is a high quality, forever gift, that the owner can pass down to his kids. That is how well made this Flask is.

My buddies and I have a long standing tradition on the trail. The night before we start our hike home we have a toast and talk about old times. We’ve lost friends over the years. We toast to them and to enjoying the days ahead. My Hip Flask has carried everything from Jameson to Pappy and everything in between.

When it comes to a disaster, I just might need a sip from this Hip Flask more than normal.

Neck Warmer

TJ Provost Leave a comment

When the wind is blowing this Neck Warmer makes all the difference between feeling that chill down to my bones versus staying warm and comfy. I do a lot of walking, and try not to let the weather stop me, rain, shine, hot, or cold. When it comes to cold, this Neck Warmer is a must have piece of Cold Weather Survival Gear. I’ve been on hikes where this Warmer was the only thing that let me keep on the move. The wind was just howling and while I was bundled up, the Warmer is what kept me from having frostbite on my neck and face. When the wind is so cold it burns, you will be glad you have this Warmer.

In a real disaster social norms are going to disintegrate. When the weather is cold these Warmers let your survival group hide their faces. That is helpful on a couple of levels. The first is that it keeps you warm. The second is that it lets you hide your face. It’s hard for someone to track you or spread rumors if they don’t actually know who they met on the trail. The third is that it hides details you may not want potential adversaries to have. How many teens and young women do you have in your group? Those seem like minor details now but post major disaster the scavengers will want to target weak groups who may also have people who meet a specific demographic. Don’t disclose anything you don’t have to.

  • 100% Acrylic
  • Imported
  • Double layer fleece
  • Washable neck
  • Soft and warm

Neck Warmer Scoring

This Neck Warmer can have a Low Impact on your survival and scores a 66/1000. It gets points for being super critical in the wrong cold weather situations and loses points for having a bit of a niche use.

Hand Crank & Solar Flashlight

TJ Provost Leave a comment

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.

  • Equipped with a bright LED bulb.
  • Put it in the sun or wind it up to recharge
  • Six minutes of winding or cranking generates 1hr of light.
  • Compact and portable.

Waterproof /Windproof Rain Pants

TJ Provost Leave a comment

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.
  • Breathability rating: 5000g/m2/24hr.
  • Waterproof Rating: 5000mm.
  •  Waterproof fabric and fully seam-sealed and welded.
  • Provides excellent waterproof protection.

TJ Provost Leave a comment

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.

Titanium Canteen

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Titanium Canteen is the absolute top of the line when it comes to Canteens. It is light, durable, and will never rust or corrode. This is a piece of equipment that will not only take whatever you can dish out, but will be there for you to give to your grandkids someday. If you are weighing every ounce, you need this Canteen. On the other hand, if you just want a solid piece of gear that will last your lifetime this Canteen should still be at the top of your list.

I’m sorry but I’m getting old and it is hard for me to break my routine. I don’t care where I am, if it is a Saturday, I want to enjoy some good whiskey with some friends. I don’t care if I’m a thousand miles from home or just a hundred miles out into the hills on a camping trip, which makes this Titanium Canteen perfect to safely store a bottle and a half of whiskey for the trip. Bonus, this titanium doesn’t change the taste, and you can still throw your gear around without worrying about it getting damaged and leaking out that precious whiskey.

Titanium Canteen Scoring

This Titanium Canteen can have a High Impact on your survival and scores a 512/1000. Drinking water is the difference between life and death. When it comes to light and durable, you can’t beat this Canteen constructed of Titanium. Even better, you don’t have to fill it with water if you are just going to hike with your buddies.

  • Titanium 1100ml Canteen with secure cap and carrying case.
  • Carrying case included for travel and storage of the entire set.
  • Ultra lightweight.
  • Perfect for camping, cooking, hiking, work and travel.
  • About 13 oz weight with carrying case.

Light Hiking Socks

TJ Provost Leave a comment

When it comes to your feet, a pair of these Light Hiking Socks are critical. It is hard to keep hiking if your feet are killing you. When your primary form of travel is walking, you need to take good care of your feet. Blisters make it hurt to walk. That break in your skin also leaves you open to infections. These Socks pull the moisture and sweat away from your skin which helps prevent skin break down, which is critical if you plan on walking any serious distance.

Most of us are spoiled. We get in our car or use a phone to have one pick us up at the curb. When disaster strikes and the roads are parking lots, you are going to have limited options left to get where you are going. For most of us that means walking. Be ready to move, and keep your feet in good condition with these Light Hiking Socks.

When the weather turns cold these Socks also make a perfect base layer. Put them on as the first layer and then your cold weather gear. It also means that as the weather warms you can just peel off layers until you are comfortable again.

Light Hiking Socks Scoring

The Hiking Socks can have a High Impact on your survival and score a 504/1000. Keeping your feet in good shape can mean the difference between making it to shelter before a storm or getting away from the hot zone as fast as possible.

  • 54% Nylon 43% Merino Wool 3% Lycra® Spandex
  • One of the lightest hike socks out there.
  • Light and strong with a thin layer of cushioning along base of foot.
  • Designed and Knit in Vermont.
  • Fast action wicking pulls moisture away from skin.
  • No more sweaty, stinky socks.
  • Comes with a lifetime guarantee.
