I’ve seen the crap people tossed in that they thought they would “need” but never used…crap that adds up to unnecessary pounds quickly. Sometimes it’s useful to get past your preconceived notions and realize very little of what you think will happen will happen. Bags Bugout, Bug home, Bug whatever are not meant to be static supply’s. In fact anticipated needs is a very dynamic thing. It all come down to what “YOU” will need.

This kit packs all the survival essentials into an expanded MOLLE water bottle bag that weighs less than 4 lbs when the water bottle is full. It comes with a strap made of 40 feet of paracord. It would make a nice gift for a teen going away to college this fall, a kit for your vehicle or a compact hiking kit.
