Insider edition: bird hunters' one-pound survival kit

It's the time of year when you're assembling this and searching for that, getting your gear together with an eye toward opening day and adventures to come. Here's one piece of gear that you truly shouldn't leave home without - a survival kit. It doesn't need to be big or heavy - this one weighs just over a pound - but its contents could save your life or minimize the inconveniences that come your way. From staying warm and dry to finding your way back to camp, I've got suggestions on what to bring and why. Some is high tech and others old-school, but all are critical if you want to "live to tell about it." Insider editions are brought to you by CableGangz tie-out systems and Heartland Lodge, where I'll be doing a residency this fall (learn more here).
