I'm the type of person that likes to be prepard for just about anything so I created a survival pack with one thing in mind, It's better to have it and not need it then not have it and need it. I wanted the basic survival Tool Plus other things I thought would be use-full. Also it's starting to get colder in Minnesota where I live so I have added some good cold weather gear too.

Step 1: Main Container

Main container is a lager metal coffee container. It Serves as the survival can plus water purifacation ( boiling ), cooking food, water storage. There is 100ft of orange paracord, 50ft black paracord wrapped around the coffee can. you can never have to much rope!

Step 2: Fishing Kit + Yo-Yo Reel + Sewing Kit

I used an ALTOIDS tin to hold the fishing gear, there was room to put the sewing kit in there to. Never waste space.

Fishing kit contains: inside an altoids tin

I Think it's a pretty complete kit Minus a few things that I need to add.
The Pack weighs around 15 pounds not bad for all the stuff in there.
