Lifesaver Bottle - Water Purification Systems. Practical Survivor. Urban survival is a tricky subject to discuss. There are advantages to urban survival. Anywhere you look there are items in trash cans and dumpsters that can be used to improve a survival situation. Cardboard boxes can be used for shelter, newspapers can be used for insulation and to the practical survivor another persons trash can be a treasure. In this case we will use a coffee can to build a stove. Whether you call it a hobo stove, can stove, or just a survival stove, this is a cheap effective way to both cook and stay warm. Keep an open mind during any survival situation. Whether backpacking, camping, or surviving, having a way to cook can make a huge difference. A coffee can or large vegetable/ravioli can will allow you to build a stove and cook.

Items used to build this stove: * Coffee can * Can opener * Tin snips * Drill and drill bits * Metal coat hanger There are many methods that could be used to build this stove. The top side of a coffee can is already opened. Materials: Backpacking Food for the Soul. Guyot designs - alternative way to hang it!!! Popotes Raid Popote anti-adhésive 4 pers. Decathlon France.

Popotes Raid Popote anti-adhésive 4 pers. Decathlon France

Yank, le 22/02/2014 Elle est compacte, lègère, et assez complète. Taches d'oxydation apparues dès le 1er lavage. Après la première utilisation, nous avons lavé la popote à l'eau et laissé sécher à l'air libre. Des taches d'oxydations (taches foncées) sont apparues sur tous les accessoires en aluminium (passoire et assiettes), donnant l'impression permanente qu'elles ne sont pas propres.

Manger chaud en rando l'hiver, c'est essentiel ! Celinita, le 06/01/2014 Efficace, léger et peu encombrant Ne peut contenir la cartouche de gaz Utilisée pendant 1 semaine en randonnée en novembre, tout est bien pensé : la poignée amovible, le couvercle qui peut aussi faire casserole (pratique pour le café), les assiettes ultra plates, le tissu qui évite les chocs (et le bruit !)

Arc / Bow. Long-Term Storage of Special Survival Foods. Oxygen-Absorbing Packs My favorite way to remove the oxygen is by using oxygen absorbing packs.

Long-Term Storage of Special Survival Foods

The food most commonly used for long-term storage is whole wheat berries (Winter wheat) so I will use it as an example. Below is how I do it from start to finish: I purchase organically grown whole wheat berries (Winter wheat) from a natural foods grocery store that sells in bulk. Whole Foods Market is a national chain that sells bulk foods but there are others including local sources. As I mentioned earlier, the 5 or 6 gallon (20 l) plastic buckets that you can buy in hardware stores are a convenient size in which to store your bulk items.

I order my mylar bags from Walton Feed, Inc. online at They come in many different sizes but I have found that the 20 in x 30 in size is perfect for 5 or 6 gallon buckets. I use the same technique to store other items that I buy in bulk, including pinto beans, corn, oats, etc. If you are wheat intolerant then obviously you will want to store other grains. Food Preservation Techniques. Smoking Meat & Making Jerky Before refrigeration people relied on salt and smoke to preserve their meat.

Food Preservation Techniques

Most people lived on family farms and the "smoke house" was as familiar as the outhouse. Refrigeration changed the way we did a lot of things, but one thing it did not change was our taste for the flavor of smoked meat. Consequently, smokers are readily available today and recipes abound, including those for smoking your meat in your backyard grill. But one thing that nearly all of these recipes have in common is: the meat is cooked and so the end product will require refrigeration.

To preserve meat that will not require refrigeration a process known as Hard Smoking is required. The smoked meats and jerky that you buy in stores today contain preservatives called nitrites, so their moisture content may be slightly higher and their salt content slightly lower. Spices have been highly prized over the centuries, with certain spices at times being worth more than their weight in gold.
