a compass so you don't get lost using the paths around you of course as well and a map this is a map of a good section of the wilderness in New Hampshire if you don't have a map that's alright that's what accomplices for you know it really is the most important of the two I read have a compass that a map because eventually your Maps going to run out you're not going to know where you're going

compass you always know where you're going at least on the cardinal directions now let's talk about how we meet the need out of our backpack okay I've got my ball blanket got my top tucked in there I have a hammock tucked into the other side it's my bed roll really just distills down to shelter and bedding fire warmth cooking regardless of the the weather outside you know I can make fire 9fi and glass bow drill make fire with fell rod matches and fun steel water alright I've got two nesting cups I use it for Seder and the military usgi American it's the best way to go over there gives me two large cups basically in the space of one I also use for my water I use to dry bags basically I use one for raw water straight from the water source I can carry into camp these are both 5 liter bags and then after I boiled it I dump it into the second bag so then I have a reservoir of clean good to go water that is a lot more than just what I can hold in my canteen I found that that's really key you know when you're out there doing this every single day being able to have the ability to camp up on a hill away from your water source right and still have raw water with you without having to walk down every single time you want to process water is key the other half of the equation is after I process it I want to be able to hold more than I can drink want to build a hold more than I can even hold in my canteen and things like that because that fills up quick that's where the second bag comes into play and I never mix the two raw waters always raw water and disinfected boiled water is always in that back the other side of that water equation is my pot I use this to obviously disinfect the water to boil keep some some tissues in there I use as toilet paper when it's wet out I usually just use leaves but when it's real wet and you know like nasty outside I want to be you know wiping myself with you know wet leaves that that's never fun you know they can harbor bacteria things like that you don't want to use rocks because you can get ringworm things like that so I use this as a kind of last-ditch when it's real awful outside I use that is my bandana inside there I used to filter my water
