Finally got my OPSEC poncho out in the woods for a checkout.

Purpose of this exercise was to see if I could really survive with the survival gear I regularly carry (in the Kifaru Scout ruck in the pictures). Temp 15-20 deg F., light snow falling, 4-6 inches of snow already on the ground.

Executive summary -- I made it through the night.

Set up the poncho as a windbreak as specified in Jasper's "6 Ways In, 12 Ways Out" (boy am I really glad I read that book before trying this). Got a fire going, slept on top of the space blankets (one is an AMK Bivy sack) in my clothes (mostly second-hand wool outdoor gear from thrift shops).

Not the best night's sleep I ever got, but I did feel rested enough to spend most of the next day hiking around, and I could have done more if I'd had to.

This is working for me. There really isn't anything much larger that you can throw in a small ruck (the Kifaru Scout is around 1300 c.i., and I have a bunch of other stuff jammed in there), let alone in a cargo pocket.

It's like a camera (or a knife or a gun). Got one with more features at home? Yeah, I do too. I got this one with me right now.

What do you got? :-) P.H. Minneapolis, MN


"I was searching for a hold-all for pocket gear, pistol and other essentials to keep close at hand at night in case of a hasty camp exit or E&E situation. My buddy got me a Survival Solutions Satchel as a gift. It is the perfect size and weight. For backpacking trips, it weighs nothing and is indispensable as an organizer. It was also to be used as a small pack for short hikes away from camp. Just used it this past weekend for the above purposes and it performed very well. Kudos to your design staff and choice of materials in this piece of gear. Thanks and take care." M.L., New Jersey
