What's in your bag? It may save a life!

I once asked the Captian of the Pittsburg Fire Department what the most important things needed in a medical emergency. 1) We have to be able to find you. 2) Keep the person warm.

Salty dog, I carry a sleeping bag very similar to the one that you posted except it is for two. If truly stranded, body heat from another person may be life saving.

I also carry the "space blanket" that has grommets so that you can make a tent or a wind breaker out of it. Bungee cords may be helpful to secure it.
