Whether you’re hunting, fishing, hiking, cross country skiing, snowshoeing or doing anything in the mountains of Montana (and everywhere else), there is one item that should always be included in the contents of your pack–a survival blanket (also known a a space blanket).  These blankets are not only affordable, starting at just $4.99 at Bob Ward & Sons, but they also fold up into a very small package, which means they do not take up much space at all.

Benefits include:

  • Keep up to 98% of your body heat reflected inside to keep you warm in any situation…
  • 100% waterproof so you can keep the rain off and avoid hypothermia…
  • Signal for help using the mirror-finished outer section…
  • Turn your car into a warm sanctuary if you’re ever stranded inside your vehicle…
  • Use to construct an emergency shelter that keeps you warm through the night

For those of you that aren’t familiar with survival blankets, I recommend you head to Bob Ward & Sons today, and pick at least one of them up.  After you arrive home with your new purchase, sit outside for a few minutes without a jacket, then wrap yourself in a survival blanket when it gets too cold.  You will, then, see what makes these blankets such an amazing tool if you’re faced with any type of survival situation.
