Canoeists survival pack

For those who love the outdoors here is a basic survival pack for canoe enthusiasts.

Step 1 Esentials

Theres a saying where i come from,never go anywhere in the woods without a good sharp axe.For this instructable i will suggest a hatchet for space saving purposes,although i will recommend an axe(it takes less energy to fall a tree with an axe)a hatchet will suffice.
Next you will need a knife (pic 2).A large hunting knife isn't necessary,a simple short knife with a comfortable handle will be more useful and easy to control,besides you have a hatchet in case any wildlife decide to take a bit out of you.

hey great idea what type of hatchet is that ???

[Xuthal]

I'm not sure,i didn't have a camera at the time so i "stole" it from google images.A small hatchet is preferred over a machete since the handle will absorb more energy and the head can withstand constant chopping over a longer period of time.

throw in a penny stove and put it all in the pot...along with a smalll bottle of heet

I should have mentioned this instructable is for the seasoned outdoors men.If you can build a fire and find a hooked branch for the pot to hang from there would be no need for the stove.Although it would be preferable in dry conditions where a forest fire is a risk.

[haroman145]

sure. it just depends on how you look at it. But a very good instructable indeed.
