Fortune Favors the Prepared

Here at Fortuna, we believe in stacking the odds in your favor.

Our team is a family of full-time rescue professionals who live and work in Alaska. Together, we have decades of experience using survival gear and medical equipment to save lives in some of the harshest conditions on the planet.

Our goal is to give you the best equipment and training possible so that you can make wise decisions and be well-prepared for emergencies.

Our purpose

  • We believe in preparing for emergencies through regular training, and managing potential chaos by providing trained people with the best equipment available.

    We package the best equipment available into a kit you will actually carry and use in everyday life.

    We provide the training and support needed to use our products effectively, including resupply to keep your kit ready.

  • From our custom bags to the smallest individual component, our kits have been meticulously evaluated for quality, usability, reliability, and weight.

    Whenever possible, materials are sourced from environmentally and ethically responsible factories and companies.

  • At FSS, we continually test and evaluate new equipment to find the best available. And when the best available just doesn’t cut it? We create our own product to meet the need.

    Our goal? To prepare and equip you to succeed when faced by emergencies—small or large.

    Fortune favors the prepared.
