Mr.BOBB breaks down exactly how to build a complete bug-out hydration system — how much water to carry, which Klean Kanteen bottle to choose, and how to layer filtration and chemical treatment so you never run dry in a survival situation.

You've had blisters before. They really suck. You don't want them, and avoiding them should be top priority during an emergency.

They can also be extremely dangerous if left untreated, especially in life or death situations.

The key to prepping an effective emergency Bug Out Bag or any other survival kit is being able to quickly find and take stock of the items within it.

Resist the urge to dump everything in there willy-nilly. You should be able to find each item quickly and efficiently (even in the dark) without spilling the whole thing open or rummaging endlessly.

Items should be grouped together by function into kits: a fire making kit, a sleep kit, cooking kit, etc.
