[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2778208, member: 5412"] I use 0000 steel wool and the 9v battery for my emergency kit that I carry in the backpack when elk hunting in the Rockies. Its a private ranch, and would probably be tough getting lost on, but, one never knows when a slip results in a broken leg, and cell phones don't typically work in that area. Spotty at best. It might be awhile before being found. I like to get out and wander the woods on my own. The nights get down to -25F. Along with the fire starter, is some shredded wood fiber, and a wax block type of material that will burn on its own for 30 minutes or so. Hopefully that will allow time to keep gathering wood, or at least get enough fire going to be spotted by smoke or the light of the fire. [/QUOTE]
