Kentactic:
Hey it was brought up in another thread about Bug-Out-Bags and i dont claim to know anything special but perhaps this could be worthy of posting. this is just my version of a BOB and im still buttoning up the final details so heres what ive got going so far:

List of Items for Bug-Out-Bag

Quality backpack atleast 2000 cubic inches of storage space and Has a camelback water pouch in it. also look for one with a chest or waist strap with good shoulder and back padding.
10 or more yards of Toilet paper
2 hand wipes
1 Compass/Map
1 Chapstick
1 Waterproof notepad
1 Pencil
1 Thick 100% wool blanket
1 Thin 100% wool blanket
1 Green Tarp
1 Roll of #12 tarred nylon twine 106lb
3 disposable toothbrushes
1-2 spare pair of socks
1 spare pair of underwear
1 multi-tool
2 good flash lights with spare batteries
2 glow stix
2 Bic lighter
1 ferral rod
1 handfull of laundry lint
1 Fresnel lense
1 Altoids can
6 fishing hooks
20 yards of 6lb fishing line
1 suntan lotion/bugspray combo .5 oz
1 water purification tablets
1 Water filter
Appropriate ammo for guns on hand
Dry duck Rain gear
1 Small container of gun oil
1 Small container of gun solvent
1 Remington gun oil rag
Other basic requirements for firearms care
1 hat
1 metal Cup
1 metal canteen
1 Space blanket
3 days worth of Meals Ready to eat "MRE's" with a heating eliment in them
1 Small knife For small cutting and wood work jobs
1 Large knife atleast 9 inches with some weight to it for big wood processing etc
OR 1 All steel hatchet instead of the big knife
1 Metal spork
1 Small Bastard Mill hand file
1 Blow-Out Kit also holding bandaids etc for simple medical needs
2 Snares

Then also Think about what clothing youll need to add and remove with the different seasons. Jacket, Gloves, Beanie, Thermol, etc.

With everything listed and 3 liter camelback full your lookin at  28-38lbs depending on exact quantities and individual weights with a minimal amount of ammo... so yeah it gets heavy quick.

WhiskeyJack:
Not a bad load out ken. Just a question. do you think a couple of small game snares would be a good addition, or would you make them from items you already have packed?

these things aren't technically inside the bag but go along with everything listed above. everything else hangs from the bottom of my actual BOB:

NOLA556:
I'm going to go ahead and sticky this topic. I even though BOB's are an old topic that most of us have discussed ad nauseum, this thread will be a great reference for any future members that are new to prepping.
