    Cordage

    Cordage is a good thing to have in a survival situation. Any type of wire, rope, string, twine, or line of any type will be useful, but stronger rope is better. It can be used for multiple purposes like lashing things together, building shelter, carrying and moving items, climbing, making a...

Storing food may seem like a daunting and expensive task, but I found a list by “AZPrepper” which makes things easier for you.
