The Survival Kit in a Bottle is a great idea. You can buy it off-the shelf or build your own quite cheaply. Putting your survival kit in a nalgene (or similar) bottle makes sure that it is always dry, safe and portable.
Here’s what’s in the Survival Kit in a Bottle :
- 32 oz (1 litre) Water Bottle
- 3″ carabiner attached to loop
- Flashlight
- 2 AA Batteries
- Emergency Blanket
- Poncho/Raincoat
- 5 in 1 Whistle (whistle, signal mirror, flint, compass, waterproof matchbox)
You can obviously customize this kit to your own needs. I would recommend putting in the following:
- Swiss Army Knife / small multi-tool
- Small first aid kit
- Small LED flashlight for longer battery life and extra durability
- a coil of paracord
- duct tape (a thousand and one uses!)
- bandanna
- pen and paper
With a little bit of thought, you can pack a whole lot into a 1-litre bottle!
