Great start! Feel free to x-post to /r/bugout, as they'll have some more suggestions. Here are my thoughts:

  • I agree with gittenlucky: if the first-aid kit is mostly off-the-shelf, you may want to consider adding some pain killers, anti-diarrhea, and any prescription meds you might require. Some people also recommend iosat tabs, if you're concerned about nukes. If you're comfortable collecting and using them, also consider minor surgical gear, antibiotics, etc. Maybe some sun/bug protection? If you're walking, moleskin and foot powder?

  • Although I noticed you have at least one pull-top food can, the P-38 can opener is lighter and surprisingly effective. If you're interested in lightening the load, they're available cheaply. Lighter than carrying cans, you might alternatively consider a stack of Datrex bars.

  • While the candles might be romantic on a calm day, I'd swap them out for a flashlight, head light, or a pack of chemical glow lights. Each stick lasts about 8 hours and is pretty bright.

  • Have you considered any defensive items, even if it's as benign as pepper spray?

Thanks for the feedback!

  1. Yeah, I know. I ordered a pack of ten and just threw the whole lot in there. One thing I do like about the chem lights is their duration. At 8hrs each, they last longer than a few AAAs in the head lamp and, when hung overhead, the white ones do a decent job of illuminating a campsite.
  2. Laughing when I took the pictures, I even thought about removing the booze from the shot. I got them for free on one of my recent flights, and just tossed them in the bag. I figured, for their light weight, it couldn't hurt.
  3. Good call on the mylar blanket. I'll add a couple and some paracord for rigging.
  4. I know... I know... It is at the top of the pack for quick access. I've put it on several times, and can get a seal pretty reliably. Even if you discount its chemical/biological use, I thought it might serve dual-duty protecting against airborne dust. (I was recalling ground-zero pictures post 9/11.) Thoughts?
  5. Good call on the extra winter gear. Likewise, I assumed I'd already have winter coat/gloves with me, if the season dictated, but being exposed for longer than a typical commute would require more. I'll be adding that.

    Thanks again!
