Abstract
A housing has a front panel, a rear panel, side panels, a bottom panel, and an open top. A major chamber is within the housing. An envelope formed with a minor chamber is attached to one of the panels of the housing. A fire shelter system is removably positioned in the major chamber. A global positioning system is removably positioned within the envelope. A cord extending between the major chamber and the minor chamber couples the fire shelter system and the global positioning system. Deployment of the fire shelter system by removal from the major chamber will pull the cord to activate the global positioning system.
