[QUOTE="Dawg Pics, post: 788985, member: 26505"] I don't venture out alone very much, especially in a remote area, but I usually keep sunscreen and DEET in my bag along with a bottle of water and a couple snack bars. I keep some in the car too. I won't be trekking out into the woods alone, but we do have hiking trails around here, and the heat can take you down pretty quickly. Best survival things you can have is a buddy and plenty of water in case you twist an ankle on the trails. People die hiking alone. They end-up falling and can't be seen easily by rescue. These days you can get a GPS locator in case you get stranded. If you are an adventurer, it would be a good thing to have. My brother gave me a small survival bag that has a reflective blanket in it. I need to do an inventory and make sure I have enough stuff in case something happens even just driving somewhere by myself. You never know, you can get stuck in a traffic jam with no way off of the freeway on the hottest day of the year. [/QUOTE]
