When you think of all the predictions, which people make about the future, it is no wonder that so many people are planning to get survival kits together.  The only problem about doing this is that you might need so many things in order to survive that you will not know where to start.  It is therefore very important that you have a survival gear list with only the most important items on it for incase you need to flee and carry something light with you.  The last thing you need when trying to get away from danger is to try to carry a heavy case full of items with you.  This will only slow you down and ruin your chances on survival.

Do not think about all the scenarios which you might encounter when you put this list together, but rater about let us say the ten most important items you will need to take you trough any possible situation.  This is not too many items to take with you in case you need to start running.  These items should consist of nutrition, first aid and shelter items.  If you have this with you then you stand a better chance on surviving in the wild especially than other people have.

On the survival gear list, you should have items such as a first aid kit consisting of medical supplies, definitely a blanket that you can use as shield should you encounter a situation where there is fire.  The blanket should be insulated and be able to protect you against the fire.  In a bag which you seal properly you can add candles, matches and even a few flares should you have the need to call for help.  A flashlight, tools, can opener and compass are other items that will help you greatly when you are stuck.
