Hi y'all - I'm a first time caller long time listener Actually been viewing this site for almost 4 years now but never had the "guts" to comment or well... post. So anyway my first try, here it goes: <br><br>I've been trying to put together a PSK that suits the place where I live (not the moon actually as the subject heading suggests) but for Iceland, where I live. Iceland has no forests and very few trees (ergo no wood for fires). Iceland has untainted water (ergo no need to purify drinking water). The landscape in the highlands is similar to the moon (actually American astronauts once visited Iceland to practice their space walks ) with black lava and sands. We have harsh weather all year long, where temperatures might fall just below freezing level in the summer time. What kills travelers in Iceland is exposion to the elements. The most dangerous conditions are rain, wind and temperatures right above zero. SO to make a LONG story short, based on that. I consider my 3 seasons survival needs to be warmth and shelter. What my PSK needs to contain is thus:<br><br>- fire making substances, for warmth and possibly to heat water for consumption<br>- a container to heat water in (not to transport since water is widely available)<br>- a compass<br>- possibly a knife to, e.g. digging out roots for consumption (maybe not necessary?)<br>- a shelter from rain and wind<br><br>There are probably many questions that arise but based on the meager description above what do you consider my needs to be? Do I need the things mentioned above? <br><br>Note: This kit is for basic emergency needs, used for e.g. day-hikes in nature and to be able to survive an overnights stay!
