Stay with your kit
by: Brennan

One of my tips is always carry your firesteel on you it can save your ass.
You must also ALWAYS stay with your kit.
Always make your shelter first.
Rice can be your best friend its cheap, easy to make, and lightweight.
Stay on the same route if you dont youll just waste your energy.

Survival Kit Containers
by: Anonymous

At first when I made survival kits, I put them in plastic bags, which were nice because they were waterproof, but I soon realized they'll get holes in them easily and are a pain to zip. So I tried out the idea of putting them in an altoids can works well nice size and isn't gonna break but water leaks in sometimes. I found this website, which sells tins of similar sizes for really cheap, and I haven't had any problems with water leaking into them.

Another great idea to put in your survival kit
by: Randy

I put in my tin survival kit (on the lid of the tin) my name and home phone number or cell phone number. If you don't carry ID or lose it this is just an extra precaution.

When packing a kit, put in a square of aluminum foil. Get a good sized piece and fold and crease until it is about 2'' x 3'' then press with a book
