[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 581790, member: 11791"] Lisa ... car kit. Up here, it's vital, given our temperatures, and the miles of roads that are in the middle of no where (often, no cell coverage for 10 miles or more) We find that the protein/energy bars age too fast in a kit. We are told to carry candy-coated chocolate. It doesn't make a mess in the heat (you WILL forget them in the car!), and warm up [I]fast[/I] for eating without using much body heat to do so. Most critical items are a blanket per person, change of footwear (including socks), candles in sand or other heat source (canned heat works well) and something to light them with, traction aid (kitty litter, carpet strips, commercial grip strips, etc.), shovel, a pour-bottle of winter window cleaner (to clean headlights and windshield if necessary), safety markers, lighting, and paper towels. We also carry a snow-suit (one or two piece) per person and extreme temperature gear that you won't need (balaclavas, double-lined waterproof elbow-length mitts, etc.) [/QUOTE]
