Always Ready Kit (1 person)
After an emergency you may need to survive on your own for days, weeks, or even longer. This requires meeting your own basic needs: clean water, food, first aid, shelter, etc. The Always Ready Emergency Kit provides high quality components that will make up the core of your kit:
- Pocket Survival Pak - A mini survival kit that really could save your life! It contains a collection of survival tools for making fire, navigating, signaling, emergency repairs, etc.
- Adventure First Aid 1.0 Kit - Contains a multitude of supplies to treat cuts and scrapes, sprains, headaches, muscle aches, allergic reactions and larger wounds. It organizes items by injury with Easy Care cards to help anyone quickly and confidently give first aid.
- Aquamira Emergency Water Filter - Instead of supplying a few tiny cartons of purified water that might be enough for a meal, the 1-person Always Ready Kit comes with the ultra light and compact Aquamira Frontier Emergency Filter System. It weighs less than 1 ounce and allows you to drink from any bottle, cup or directly from water sources. One unit will filter up to 20 gallons (75L) of water.
- Aquamira Water Purifier Tablets - Water is a key survival concern, so for good measure we have supplied purification tablets to give you added security when you suspect a water source is contaminated with microorganisms, as is often the case after floods, hurricanes, and other disasters. Aquamira Water Purifier Tablets, an EPA Registered Purifier, contain a patented chlorine dioxide formula that produces a powerful germicidal agent when released in water.
- 3 Datrex Food Rations - These individually packaged, tabletized emergency rations taste great and last for years. Each package contains 2,400 calories, a full day of energy for the average adult. The one-person Always Ready Emergency Kit comes with 3 of these, which will supply 3 full days of calories for 1 adult or minimum sustenance for up to a week with proper rationing.
- SolaDyne Radio & Flashlight - The solar / crank charging options ensure reliable light and radio without the need to constantly replace the batteries. This self-powered AM/FM radio and a 3 LED flashlight features a solar panel that provides up to 5 ¾ hours of radio use and 5 hours of light and a high efficiency dynamo charging system that from just 1 minute of winding will provide 20 minutes of radio use and 30 minutes of light.
- 1-Person Heatsheet Survival Blanket - This survival blanket reflects up to 90% of radiated body heat, is easy to open and fold, is tear resistant, and made of a bright orange exterior that is easy for rescuers to spot.
- Swift II Lumbar Pack - Many emergency kits cut corners when it comes to
the pack. Not ours. Mountainsmith's Swift II pack is made from 450d Poly
body fabric and 210d RipStop liner. It allows you to travel light and fast and still have room to carry your essentials.
Despite what some may tell you, there is no perfect kit, and every kit
should be further customized by its owner. This means adding
prescription medications, copies of important documents, extra cloths
and blankets (especially for areas that may experience especially cold
weather), and other items specific to the kit owner.
Also, in a major catastrophe or the dreaded "long emergency", it is likely that basic services such as electricity, gas, water, sewage treatment, and telephones may be cut off for a prolonged period. As a result, in addition to having a good 72-hour emergency kit, complete preparedness demands that survivors plan to do without basic services. Such preparations cannot be satisfied with any kit.
