I am leaving for a 3-months long kayak trip in about a week. I haven't gotten to prepare my emergency/survival kit yet. Any propositions?
I'll be in between Skagway (Alaska) and Vancouver Island, on the West Coast (Pacific Ocean).
Very rainy region. Very cold water. There are probably a good load of berries and mushrooms to eat (I don't know plants enough to actually include them in that list of available food, unfortunately), but they won't be everywhere.
Anything specific you can think of which I might not think about that could be very useful at some point in case of a survival situation arrives?
I'm mostly thinking the worst scenarios could be: hypothermia, food eaten by a bear, maps destroyed/lost, kayaks washed away, lost/broken paddles, wildlife attack, strong current bringing us far from the shore... or a tsunami caused by an earthquake?!
