U IS FOR UNUSUAL SURVIVAL TIPS
In Alaska and Canada there are guidelines in place for what pilots must carry in their planes. Alaskan Survival Kit Regulation.
If you're a hiker, snowmobiler or just a tourist and traveling into the Alaskan wilderness, even if only for a few miles or a few hours, your life may depend on what you're carrying.
If you're foolish enough to go into the wilderness without a survival kit, you may still save your life.
Water, shelter, and warmth should be your first priorities:
- Find a dry location and use the vegetation like pine boughs to build yourself a nest.
- Lipstick or chap stick could help you start a fire. It's petroleum based.
- A mirror can signal for help.
- Dental Floss can be used as a fishing line, for cutting food, or even capturing it.
- Duct Tape is a favorite of mine and one I used in Murder & Obsession. There are numerous uses for Duct Tape! From first aid to creating containers.
This survival kit has everything you might need - no matter what emergency you find yourself in. You should keep one in your car!
