Hey, Mike, I hope all is well, and I hope you have the best New Year! I am always SMH when I see this, but people and their very limited clothing. They don't dress well enough – and some of them think they are not going to be outside long enough to make a difference…they can get to their destination and run inside! I have seen people with their children out in severe adverse weather conditions, and their children do not have a coat on – I really don’t like to see that. People walking into a store a gas station in a storm with a t-shirt and "maybe" a hoody and sweats and made maybe an Athletic shoe – Sandals too, and no socks! Dress as if you will be in a bad predicament, and you need to stay warm for a long period of time.
Great Talk as Always Mr Mike … Truly Sad What the Winter Storm Has Brought … If Only The People Would Pay More Attention … To avoid Catastrophe… Thank Mr Mike For all That You Do and For your Words…
We can kill a guy on a Camel in the middle of a desert with a drone but we can’t handle a snow storm. Madness
Great topic! It is easy to get all excited about prepping for SHTF and neglect being prepared for everyday emergencies.
Some of the stuff I keep in my car during winter:
1. Full-sized snow shovel
2. Recovery tracks
3. 2 high visibility vests. One to wear, and one to attach to the car like a flag.
4. Combo battery jumper, tire inflator, and battery bank
5. Luggable loo and pee bottle for when nature calls
6. Extra coat, beanie, and gloves
7. Wool blanket and sleeping bag
8. Water and snacks
***One item I’m going to add is a carbon monoxide detector. They are cheap and could obviously save your life.
It is very sad that the majority of people are oblivious to any kind of safety or survival knowledge. The same majority is completely lacking in conscious thought such as common sense or philosophy and therefore could not think their way out of a paper bag much less a dangerous or potentially dangerous situation. Thirdly, the same group is totally unaware of their surroundings, whom might be in their immediate location, what they are doing and what developing or dangerous situations may be a foot in their sight circumference or nearby area. Please keep preaching the methods of self preservation and we will keep sending people your way for survival knowledge. Thank you for all of your efforts. Hooah.
For winter (and other seasons) I like carrying a compact mess kit with a lightweight stove and fuel in addition to the other get home bag essentials. My gal and 3 dogs just recently moved across country the day or two after this storm hit from the east coast to Northwestern Montana. Ny entire family and friends (non-prepared type folk) were freaking out about road conditions, etc. I reminded them that I’d be towing a trailer with all my camping and survival gear, along with extra food, water jugs, vehicle maintenance tools, 0F sleeping bags, wool blankets, radios, extra propane, Big Buddy Heater, all my clothes, extra dog food, the list goes on. One thing I do see a gap in my contingency plan which is satellite comms. Once I save up enough to splurge on a reliable Garmin, I’ll feel more comfortable. We made it safely in one piece, but somehow I feel as if my friends and family will quickly forget about this storm and resume their “can’t happen to me mentality.” Thanks for making this content enjoyable for the regulars out there, Mike
1st step is the clothes you walk out the door in. If your already not dressed for the current and expected conditions you have set up for for failure.
Mike, come back to TUS so I can meet you! I work at Myer PMO
I would add crampons to walk out if need be. I keep them in each vehicle. I am near Denver, CO. As others say, if you get stuck you are likely in work clothes. Dress shoes suck lets be realistic. I can attach crampons to any shoe if I don't have better shoes in the car and walk out even if there is ice on the ground. I've had to do it a few times.
I keep çarhartt bibs swet shirt hat and gloves,water,blanket, protein bars, matches,and personal protection just in case.
Food water shovel kitty litter recovery straps if you live where it snows boots wool socks and snow shoes.
Collapsible avalanche shovel to clear heavy snow and ice,, especially if vehicle tripods. A sealed container of cat litter or sand to provide grip for drive wheels
I haven’t seen your videos pop up in a while and for some reason today i thought about your channel and looked it up and realized I was unsubscribed from you. I did not unsubscribe from you. Interesting.
It’s best to have a western mountaineering gws cypus sleeping bag .. if you can find one …
Good advice, Mike. I keep a small duffel bag with extra winter clothes including long john underwear, wool socks, and a hoody incase I have to walk away from the vehicle.
I usually approach basics by going from head to toe and addressing all needs based on the season and potential distance that may be required to hoof it.
I reside in quebec canada. I have regular Snow tires for the city ,but with spikes if you live in the suburbs. A shovel and traction aid or chains is a must. Salt mixed with sand. Always…i mean always dress according to the weather and never according to work clothes. These kinds of weather are common in quebec and even then, people die in their car because unprepared. Thank you for your channel. God bless
I think a flare gun with extra flares as well as a high powered laser pointer I personally have in my bag a high powered laser pointer that's green to use in a night time environment even in a snow storm that laser pointer will make a very powerful beam that is visible to others around the area or say you can use it to signal like a person who is out some ways in the distance or car or boat u can get them to see that there is a person out there and raises the chance of survival by far
