I’ve recently upgraded my GHB and snapped some pics. Thought I’d share them. Again….this is for me and my situation. Each GHB will be different for everyone.

OK….anyone that knows me will tell you I’m a gear nut and always looking at ways to reduce weight of my kit and maximize effectiveness.
I recently picked up a couple of the SAR Dog Tag Eclipse Signal System and this fits the bill. After all the whole purpose of survival is being found and this item offers that in a lightweight system that literally fits in the palm of your hands. I am very impressed with the simplicity and multiple uses of this item and it will without a doubt be part of my EDC.

Winter is here with a vengence! So I thought I would revisit these topics so that everyone can review them and help them stay safe with whats left of winter.
I know it’s months away and many of you may think I’m crazy for even bringing this up, but it will be here before me know it….like it or not. Granted our portion of Indiana is not some vast untamed wilderness like other areas of the US, but we all know that bad winter weather is a fact of life here.

Here’s a recent project involving some old tuna cans, cardboard, string, some “Strike Anywhere” matches, an old coffee can and wax (either new or partial candles or even old crayons).
In addition to the old tried and true cotton balls soaked in petroleum jelly, here are some other methods that you can have on hand in your camping/hunting/prep kits.
Fire starters:
Very simple, these can be used when your tender is limited or even damp. These are nothing more than strips of cardboard wrapped and tied in string and then dipped in wax. Store these in an old coffee can or another container that you can store or even take with you on your next camping trip…might want to add some of these in your B.O.B. or G.H.B. as well.
