| Emergency Earthquake Kit |
I lived in Southern California almost on top of the San Andreas Fault line for many years so I know! California rocks, and it rolls too! We had more than a few major earthquakes when I lived there, and you never know when it might happen again. Be prepared!
And anything you need for earthquake emergencies holds true for all the other natural disasters that can occur. Right now it's hurricane season and the East coast has been battered with a huge one and there is lots of flooding. You never know when Mother Nature is going to decide to let loose!
Here you will find wilderness survival kits and some of the supplies that are in them in case you already have a kit and are just adding more supplies.

Short List of Supplies You Should Have in An Emergency Survival Kit
Survival Kit List
For most people who prepare for Emergencies, it means having a Bug Out Bag. A short list of supplies follows:Food and water
Clothing, things that mix and match
Toiletries
Cash and Credit Cards
Vital Documents (Identification, Medical Records, Prescriptions, Family Photographs)
Shelter (at minimum a large poncho which could be tied down but a tent is better)
Useful Tools (such as flashlights, matches and other fire starting tools)
First Aid Kit
Small Knife
Solar Lights
Radio
Your Bug Out Bag should be packed and ready to go at a moment’s notice; food and water should be checked regularly and replaced when necessary.
Set up a schedule to rotate your older items to your home pantry and add new ones to the Bug Out Bag.
So besides your Prepared Emergency Survival Kits with all the tools, add your personal items from this list , and you are prepared to survive if the worst happens and you need to get by without all the modern technology we are used to.

Water Filter
The most important thing you need to survive in the event of an emergency is clean water! If you do nothing else, prepare to be able to filter your water so it's safe to drink. Humans cannot survive more than about 3 days without water. We can survive without food for much longer. But water is essential to life. In case you run out of water, a water filter will allow you to have clean water from whatever water source you encounter. This would also work if you are traveling and are not sure the water is safe.
