Surviving in the woods. [Water]

So let's begin with some basic prepping and at the end let'z go do advanced !


So first important things are water food shelter










Water



So if you are prepping water then you need to calculate how much you need for 72hours [3days]

So the minimum is 1 liter per person, but the best is 2 liters per person.If you prepping water in bottles that's not good because if the water stays in bottle for few month it starts to separate chemicals into water, so you need to buy Food safe plastic bottles.



Now you have your water, but what is your water storage is running dry , you need to collect water,
collecting water is easy when you find any river or pond, but with this water you can only wash your self, 
It's not really safe to drink this but if it it's needed then do it, but the other way is to buy some water purification 
tablets or filter.

So if you don't have filter with you in the woods or anywhere , you can make filter, of moss and some gravel and sand , so you can make a similar to biosand filter.

Learn about biosand filter here Wikipedia

Now you learn basic of water purification, filtering and collecting

Next phases are Food and shelter and prepping at home!
