This is a great question, and I’ll go over the list below. But this question really deserves to ask the question of the type of camping you are going to do. If you are camping out of a car, bring all the creature comforts. If you are doing a hike through, you may want to minimize what you bring to make the hike a bit easier.
Being thirsty is not necessarily dehydration, like being hungry is not starvation. You hit moderate dehydration when you have dry mouth and an increased heartbeat at rest. You are in severe dehydration when you feel like, or you start vomiting and have diarrhea. Remember 3 days without water may kill you and rapid dehydration can kill you sooner.
I love this question. All of this can be packed, nested in different items, or worn and it doesn’t take as much space as you would think. It weighs less than 20 lbs. In the event I get injured or lost (I have never been lost yet), this provides enough items to survive until I am evacuated by a medical helicopter or found by search and rescue.
