- Many bug out bags are too heavy. It is obvious they were designed by people who never went backpacking. I lighten the survival bag by omitting items that are not needed. The weight of survival bag design is only 25-30 pounds including food and water. Because it is light, you will be able to walk longer and faster if you do not have a car. It has everything you will need to stay three days in the wilderness with enough food. If you needed to, you could stretch the food for over a week.
- This bugout kit is inexpensive. You may have most of the clothes you need. Your only expenses are a sleeping bag, tent and pack. I chose the most inexpensive options for you.
- I often spend 3 days in the wilderness with similar gear. I know it will work both in the wilderness, city and every place in between.
- This bug out kit does not include military gear. Military gear is designed for a different use and is too heavy. There are better and cheaper alternatives.
