The written emergency contact list is a great idea! Most people depend on their phone t obail them out, but what happens when the phone quits?
ReplyDeleteAnd whats a shemagh?
A Shemagh (pronounced "Shem-og") is like a very large bandana. It is used heavily in desert regions as a head/face-wrap. If in the field, I keep one wrapped around my neck all the time. I have many of them and they come in handy all the time. There are a million uses for one, as a towel, scarf, wrap, particulate filter, bandage, etc. You can get one online for less than $10, or in bulk for much less.
