Charcoal in you BOB

Post by Ollyr »

Charcoal has many properties because of the carbon contained within; it can be used to filter water, camouflage blades and many other things so I was thinking should I put some in my BOB to be used for these purposes or the array of other things that can do these jobs?

If something similar has been posted before just redirect me there thanks :)

Matches/lighter + wood = Charcoal. Why carry it around?

Did think that, takes a while to get a fire going though to get good charcoal, carry it then you can run up to a pond use it and restock it later on?
