Waterproof Headphones

TJ Provost Leave a comment

These Waterproof Headphones are awesome. When it comes to wet and bad weather I always choose my Waterproof Headphones. I can use them while swimming. They are perfect while walking my dog in the rain. It also means if I want to keep a voice discretely in my ear regardless of the weather I can. Wireless is great, but running out of batteries sucks. When I’m on the trail I try to minimize how much battery power I need. These Headphones are exactly what I need to make that happen!

Don’t get beat by the rain. Keep a set of Waterproof Headphones in your gear bag and be ready for whatever comes your way.

Pre disaster these Headphones are perfect for all weather activities.

Post disaster I know these Headphones are durable and will serve me well when I need them.

Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket is one of my most prized articles of clothing. When the wind is howling and the temperatures are below freezing this is the Jacket I reach for. I can’t imagine how I would have coped with the elements without this Jacket on several hiking and hunting trips. It has kept me warm when the windchill was dangerous and the air was full of sleet that was coming down sideways. If I have to grab one Jacket and run in the cold weather this is going to be it.

This Hunting Jacket is awesome for everyday cold weather use. It is awesomely prefect when it comes to hunting and spending time in the wood. It has pouches and pockets in all the right places, as well as a pass through for a harness for your Hunting Tree Stand.

Unlike a lot of other windproof jackets that crinkle and make a ton of noise, this SITKA Hunting Jacket is quiet enough for me to stay hidden from game, and anything else in the woods. It also has special covers in the hood so you can hear better. That is useful for hearing what is coming when you are hunting, or being hunted.

Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket Scoring

This Windstopper Water Repellent Hunting Jacket can have an Extreme Impact on your survival and scores 919/1000.

Yes, this is an expensive jacket. Yes it is worth every penny. When your life depends on this Jacket for survival you will be glad you went for quality over cheaper budget options.

  • Incredibly quiet, water repellant and 100% windproof jacket.
  • Removable hood with specialized hearing ports.
  • Double layer PolarTec Alpha Direct panels retain heat.
  • Safety Harness Pass-Through Port for hunters.
  • Helps resist light precipitation to keep you dry during quick squalls.
  • Keeps your fingers toasty in zippered hand pockets.
  • Dual zippered chest pockets.

Rain Poncho

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Rain Poncho is a must have bit of Wet Weather Gear. It packs up small, and has a ton of utility. Its most obvious use is during the pouring rain. It can keep you dry. That can can make the difference if you are out on the trail for days. Being wet leads to being cold, and that is dangerous. The wet just sucks the heat out of your body. Thankfully you are going to be prepared for long rainy days with this Poncho.

This Poncho fits over your Backpack, which means it can keep you and your gear dry. It also makes for a rain fly if you need to stop to rest. I obviously keep one of these Ponchos with my go gear and my Camping gear. I keep two in my vehicle. The first is Orange in case I need to stop and help someone in the pouring rain on the highway. Pre disaster I don’t want to get clipped by a car in the rain while changing a tire. Post disaster I like the Deep Gray and Green colors to fade into the background.

At this price point you can afford to have several Ponchos in different colors. The Orange is obvious for pre disaster times while some of the other colors may be dictated by what type of terrain you are in.

Rain Poncho Scoring

This Rain Poncho can have a Moderate Impact on your survival and scores a 244/1000.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

Stay warm, stay dry, you can’t help me fight the Zombie Hordes if you die of hypothermia first.

  • 100% Polyester.
  • Water proof and fast drying.
  • Made from breathable fabric.
  • Available in multiple patterns and colors.
  • Imported.
  • Zipper closure.

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.

Self Defense Umbrella

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Self Defense Umbrella is the perfect, go anywhere Self Defense tool. Unlike a lot of other tools, this Umbrella doesn’t attract attention and if you use it as a walking stick, no one wonders why you are carrying it on sunny days. Want to avoid sun exposure? This Umbrella is perfect to keep you in the shade why everyone around you gets skin wrinkling sun damage.

Of course, it is an Umbrella, so it is also perfect for rainy days. But more importantly, it is a really powerful self defense tool for everyday life. The Beech handle is incredibly hard and durable. That means you can crack a lot of skulls with it and it is going to be just fine.

Self Defense Umbrella Scoring

This Self Defense Umbrella can have a Moderate Impact on your survival. It scores a 240/1000. This Umbrella gains points for its strong Hidden Survival skills. It also has great reach. It loses a few points against a Baseball Bat for not looking very intimidating. If you are being faced down a Bat can scare a few raiders off.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • Carbon Fiber frame
  • Take where other aids are not allowed or possible. It’s an Umbrella.
  • Perfect for bodyguards, security staff, and self-defense.
  • Sturdy and highly effective tool for your personal protection.

Weatherproof Pen

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Rite in the Rain Weatherproof Pen is just the thing to go with your Weatherproof Notebook. What good is having an all weather Weatherproof Notebook if you don’t have the correct tool to write in it? Keep one of these Weatherproof Pens in your pocket and it won’t matter if its pouring rain or if your covered in mud. You’ll be able to write down critical information, or leave behind notes for the rest of your team.

It’s low tech, but my guess is that cell phones and a lot of the other technology we rely on everyday is going to stop working once the Zombies start biting. And, as a last resort, you can use it as a weapon to kill the Undead – you just have to be close in and have good aim to get this through an eye socket or two.

Weatherproof Pen Scoring

This Weatherproof Pen can have a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 236/1000.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • Writes through water, grease, and mud without clumping or smearing.
  • Writes in temperatures from -30F to 250F.
  • Writes under water (up to 35 ft), and any angle.
  • Ideal pen for All-Weather Notebooks.

Weatherproof Notebook

TJ Provost 1 Comment

Back when I was younger I would have killed for one of these Weatherproof Notebooks. I remember being on a hiking trip in the rain and snow and back then I carried a little notebook that I would jot down ideas and notes. Pencils work great even when wet, but I had a normal old notebook because two decades ago I couldn’t afford a Weatherproof Notebook, and honestly, didn’t even know they existed back then.

Today, these Weatherproof Notebooks are a critical piece of Hidden Survival Gear. If I need to write a note or let someone else on my team know that plans changed, I don’t have to worry about the weather destroying the message. It’s a small detail, but one that could mean life or death for the people who are supposed to be following me. I can write my note, tack it on the trail at eye level, and continue to move on.

I’ve been on horribly documented trails. Without my own notes I’d have to struggle through finding out the same issues over and over again. Whenever I am hiking I takes notes whenever I find something I might want to avoid – or make sure I can get back there later.

Weatherproof Notebook Scoring

These Notebooks can have a moderate impact on your survival. If you need directions or notes and you need to hike cross country, a little bit of wet weather can ruin your day. That is where these Weatherproof Notebooks save the day. They score a 235/1000.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • 100 pages / 50 sheets per pocket notepad.
  • All-Weather paper won’t turn to mush when wet and will repel water.
  • Won’t lose its shape in your back pocket or backpack.
  • Use a standard pencil like a #2 Ticonderoga or an All-Weather Pen.
  • Tough but flexible outer shell.
  • Completely recyclable.

Waterproof Dry Bags

TJ Provost Leave a comment

These Waterproof Dry Bags are a basic camping necessity. What good is making it to camp if all your clothes and gear are soaked through from the pouring rain? There is gear that just can’t get wet. That might be electronics, cash, clothing, or more importantly, ammunition. Any of them could make the difference between life and death if they get wet and you need them.

I guaranteed it’s going to rain while your camping or hiking at some point. Make sure the supplies you need to keep dry are in these Waterproof Dry Bags. I have been on long hikes through the rain. Once I get my Rain Fly up these Dry Bags mean I clothing to wear and dry goods to eat.

Waterproof Dry Bags Scoring

These Dry Bags should be a staple of your hiking and camping gear. They keep your gear dry when the rain just won’t stop. What good is getting to some cover during a storm if everything in your pack is already soaked through? These Dry Bags can have a moderate impact on your survival and score a 209/1000.

Don’t be left cold and wet!

  • Designed to keep your gear safe and dry, no matter the activity.
  • Durable and strong.
  • Includes 3 different sizes – 5L, 10L, and 20L.
  • Keep your valuables dry!!!

Backpacking Rain Fly

TJ Provost 1 Comment

This Lightweight Backpacking Rain Fly is a year round piece of gear. Its a sun shade, its a rain fly, and it blocks the cutting wind in the dead of winter. If you have a smaller cabin, I would stock up on these Lightweight Camping Rain Flies as they let you expand out onto the ground around your cabin while still offering some degree of protection from the elements.

Because this Fly is so light and portable it only makes sense to keep one in your pack. I take one hunting with me as well. Add some branches and I have a nice shelter to sit and weight for the sun to come up so I can pull some ducks out of the air. Yes, I eat them. I don’t believe in shooting anything I don’t eat – at least when it comes to wild animals.

When I hiked a lot I never took a a tent unless it was sub zero temps. I would just bring this Backpacking Rain Fly and a sleeping bag. I never had any issues and it saved me weight and room to carry other gear. Or just more food so I could stay out longer.

Backpacking Rain Fly Scoring

This Rain Fly is going to have more or less impact on your survival depending on where you live and what time of the year it is. Don’t let the moderate survival impact score full you, it is a must have if you are going to do any hiking to your bolt hole. It scores a 208/1000.

  • 10×10 camping tarp.
  • Made out of 210T polyester coated with TPU.
  • Lightweight but offers heavy duty weather protection.
  • Protect yourself from rain, wind and snow.
  • Protects you (and your equipment) from the sun and rain.

Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat

TJ Provost 1 Comment

There is nothing worse than the sun in your eyes, except maybe sunburn on your nose. Which makes this Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat a must have to survive the sun. The brim on this UPF 50 Bucket Hat is perfect to keep the sun, and the rain off my glasses. If you have been to Florida, you know how quickly those two things can alternate.

I have one Hat that has now been to India twice, Florida six or seven times, and various other Caribbean islands. So I am confident that if you get these Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hats they will last. I also like that I can scrunch it up and put it in my pack without having to worry about destroying it.

I spend a good bit of time out in the woods, and I like the “bronze green” Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat for blending in. When I’m just having fun I prefer the “Sea Palm” Hat. The bordered edge looks cool in my humble opinion.

Don’t wait until your out in the sun with burnt retinas before you think about buying a UPF 50 Bucket Hat. Plan ahead and keep that sun off your face. Once your out in the sun burning its already too late. That goes double for when a natural disaster, or the Zombie Apocalypse strikes. It’s going to be too late to gear up once you actually need the gear. Plan ahead, make sure you have the gear you need to survive now!

Cooling UPF 50 Bucket Hat Scoring

If you plan on being outside this UPF 50 Bucket Hat is a key piece of survival gear. It can have a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 410/1000.

  • Cools to 30 degrees below average body temperature when wet!
  • Easy to fold small for packing or sticking in your back pocket.
  • Stay active longer, reduce risk of heat stroke.
  • 3’ brim and UPF 50 fabric offers excellent sun protection.
  • Machine washable.
