Fantastic Presentation of a BOB for the Women !! I got my partner a 511 Rush 24 1.0 bag for her GHB..she never thought it was gonna be used but after her experience, she now loves it and it never leaves her truck. During the 2009 Winter blow out storm, she used her (vehicle) GHB, to get to safety...and even though the walking was a challenge, it got her through the storm to a motel ...she said "It was great" She used the pocket rocket stove to warm up , the emergency blankets and Gorilla tape , to cover the windows and keep her warm inside the truck (while she got her BOB ready and locked down the near empty gas tank of her truck ), Her Power Bank kept her phone charged up to call for auto-help and update the family every hour , about her condition and where abouts. The Mitts , Hat, neck warmer, xtra socks , hand and foot warmer packets and xtra layer long sleeve shirt was great for the cold windy walk, and really lightened up her pack to the motel . ************************************************ When she did get a motel , she had her emergency cash stash of $1,000 dollars and loved her fresh brewed coffee (cook set and pocket rocket stove) and listened to some radio tunes on her portable radio. All the power was out in the area for over 2 days. She slept soundly , with her self defence weapon nearby and flashlight and the door jam , that she set up to prevent instant access to her room. (which later was reported that a few motel room occupants in other motels, were robbed), during this black out. We loved hearing about her SELF RESCUE EXPERIENCE using her BOB , on the drive ,back home...when we picked her up, you wouldn't of thought she was in a rescue situation. Her truck got towed out of the ditch and minimal damage. A Month after , her experience, she started researching youtube videos on BOBs / GHB/ EDC/ FAK kits, Survival Kits, Travel kits, thru hiker videos , etc...and started to join me , on this prepping journey.
At first glance it looks like a lot, but when you divide it amongst your entire immediate family; it’s actually a great BOB. Anyone saying it’s too heavy is saying it because they’re looking at it from an individual standpoint, and that’s not practical because most people will not leave loved ones behind. Great job-well done.
It's good to see more women doing bug out bags. I'm trying to put mine together finally! I want to keep mine as light as possible though. Great suggestions on what to pack.
No matter what others say you do have great items. If you think you need it go for it, you can always ditch it later or pass it on. I love the pack seems awesome. I'm actually updating my pack soon. Thanks for sharing.
Good to see a woman showing up with a show and tell on BOB’s. We are all very different in our choices. I have been watching many many videos on emergency bags. I finally made 2 bags for my family members. A “BOB”. And a “GHB”. It’s my belief that most likely if it’s a natural emergency we will have time to pack the car and get out. But if your in town and a situation occurs getting home would be our choice.
This is a great array of items from which people can use to make a list for different types of kits....... from bougout kits to I.n.c.h. kits to car kits to EDC kit to cache kits...... great video.....great products
Please consider lightening your load. Thru-hikers commonly have pack base-weights of under 10 lbs. (doesn't include food, water or stove fuel). Your backpack weighs 4.5 lbs all by itself! If your job is to walk home or to safety in the shortest time possible, then a lighter total kit weight will help you to maximize your speed. However, YOUR kit is for YOUR needs - so, take what you think YOU will need. Thanks for making this vid!
The first mistake, that we make when we build a BOB,is that we think we are going for camping.Many "essentials" here,are unnecessary. These kind of folding shovels, are all junk, no reason to carry that weight.If you need a shovel, go for the fixed Spetsnaz shovel.I thnk Cold Steel,makes a good Spetsnaz shovel too. Get rid of the water bladder and go for a steel water bottle, that won't have any plastic parts,which can be used, to boil water on fire and will hold much better, than a plastic bladder can. Leathermans are great, but they can also break.Actually, nowdays Leathermans, break very easily with normal use,so I wouldn't recommend a newer model but I recommend older or even better,go for Victorinox,which have,many more advantages as a survival tool (knife sharpens easier,steel is tougher,doesn't rust like Leathermans do and you also get more tools,more utility out of it.Most of the times,they are also lighter in weight!) The small hatchet is for laughs.Either go with a Fiskars X7 or a big knife like you have. Hatchet with a normal around 4 inch knife, can provide more, than a big knife can. Go with a Big knife, only if it is very necessary (jungle environment for excample) or if weight of the hole backpack,has become way to much with all the stuff you carry and you want to cut weight.Also, get rid of that heavy folding knife and replace it, with the Vicotrinox 111mm Rucksack. (The man, that has designed,the best survival knife "Ka-Bar Becker BK 7" carries a Vicotrinox Rucksack every single day on him). That way, you get more utility, a better blade, a great little saw and all the rest,that this perfect tool can provide,you will also cut more weight, since it's lightermthan the heavy folder you showed. Generally, the more you know, the less you carry.Which means, that knowledge is the key and it is much more important, than all the gear together.Always check your BOB periodically and try to reduce it's weight, taking out, the gear that is not a "First need" Remember, you are not going for camping! I hope,people are clever enough and take my advice, to improve their BOBs Have fun and stay safe!
Although you make valid points I have to disagree (based on my own experience) about the Leatherman tools. I have owned and abused them for years and my China made Sidekick has come through with flying colors. My Gerber tool has also been good and has mostly ridden on my hip for many years now.
@@turtlewolfpack6061 I don't know. Maybe I'm tough on tools. I do carry a particular leather man sometimes, but the point is broken off the main blade. I have to be careful not to twist off the "2 dimensional" phillips bit. It is useful, but I have to baby it. If others have better success, that's good. Find what works for you. As I said, I carry it some times or keep it in my truck, etc. Usually I carry small vice grips in a knife case w/ a double screwdriver bit.
There is a LOT of stuff there that you do not need. Weight is a HUGE issue once you start hiking distance under not ideal conditions. I too had most of these items several years back, UNTIL...I tested my bag by walking 6 miles in cold weather along railroad tracks. When I got home I immediately culled many many items. Several weeks later I was dropped off near a lake and hiked into the woods and stayed one night just to see how some of my gear would work in cool fall weather. Again, made several changes soon after. Many of the items you have can be removed completely, and other items can be greatly reduced in size and weight. Simplicity is better
A very good set of BOB. There is a lack of a change of clothes and underwear. I would add coffee and glucose for sweetening. For listening to the radio of the headphones. Notebook, 2 pens for writing. 30x36 or 10x45 binoculars. A very good set.
I think you did a good job. You may want to watch Jupiter Hikes. He set the record from Canada to the Everglades. He is a light weight back packer. Under 8 pounds base weight. These light weight back packers spend up to a year in the wilderness in the mountains etc. Once you see what the light backpackers carry you then start to add some bushcraft stuff. A mora Knife is cheap. I recommend a Ruger Mark IV 22 pistol with 500 rounds. The 22 is light and you can carry a lot of rounds without adding to much weight. When the Japanese seized an Island off of Alaska in WW II the US military issued 22 pistols and told them to live off the land and take out small game. I like your Bacco Laplander folding saw. I recommend either your hatchet or you saw but not both. Make sure your pack is no more than 20 percent of your body weight. The most important gear is your sleeping bag. I see all kinds of people trying to use a ranger roll. They then go out on a cold night and realize it won't work. Listen to the light weight back packers. Jupiter Hikes recommends at least a 30 degree bag and that dude sleeps under a tarp and not a tent. One winter hike and you will know if your gear will work.
Very nice list of equipment. I did not see if you had a signal mirror. So important if you injured your eye, or an injury behind where you cannot see, of course to be used as in a rescue in signaling. Thank you
Interesting bob. The dehydrated food is a good food for light weight. Personally bugging out would be my 3rd option. My home is where I have all my essentials and place of comfort. Good video! 👍
Selica, I haven't seen you on RUclips for years and years! I just happened upon this video by chance and was surprised when you mentioned your name. You're like a very pleasant "blast from the past".
Nice kit, but there are some changes you can make to make your kit lighter and more versatile.Swap out your the Life Straw for a Sawyer Mini it's more versatile and smaller, also ditch the nalgen bottles and the bladder for two-one litre "Smart Water bottles, they're collapsible after use, lighter and will screw right on to the Sawyer Mini. Ditch the hatchet, your saw will be just fine for shelter building and processing firewood if needed. If you need a striking tool just cut a baton and chances are you won't be doing any serious wood splitting anyway.If you are going to carry a shovel get a fixed one piece, they are more reliable, make a better make-shift weapon are already assembled, and have less parts to fail and/or loose, Self Reliance Outfitters sells a titanium model that is very affordable and lightweight. As far as your cook set....it will work ,but a single wall 32oz. stainless steel bottle and cup set would be much more versatile and provide you with a bomb proof container to carry water in and allow you to make charred material easier, again SRO offer a great SS bottle and cup set. Upgrade your compass to Sunto MC-2 or better, might as well carry a decent compass since your survival may depend on it. Thanks for the video and for sharing.
For everyone commenting on the weight, she responded to a comment saying this bag is for bugging out in her car and she has a different, lighter bag for bugging out on foot.
@@PeakSurvival great kit great presentation I don't have a problem with the amount of gear your packing mine is pretty heavy to but like you said pack weight is determined by being athletic or lazy lol
@@PeakSurvival I highly recommend putting 2gether a Belt Kit/Utility Belt that slide through Belt Loops of however many/much Pants/Shorts/Skirts ya can fit inside your BOB (Bug Out Bag) with Belt Suspenders attached on2 Belt Loops as well as attach either A.L.I.C.E. Pouches or MOLLE Pouches (1 Admin Pouch Open Flap or Zip Open customly filled up with Admin Gear that fit size of Pouch, 2 Medical Pouch 2 Open Flap, 2 Zip Open or both 1 Open Flap & 1 Zip Open customly filled with Medical Supplies in these categories that fit size of Pouches (Wound Care / Burn / Blister, Severe Bleed & Meds) & multiple GP (General Purpose) Utility Pouches whether Folding Roll-Up, Open Flap, Zip Open or mixture of all 3 different GP (General Purpose) Utility Pouches 4 a little bit more variety) on2 Belt(s) basically as a backup survival source 2 be better prepared/extra ready than be4 just in case you're forced 2 ditch your BOB (Bug Out Bag) somewhere or ya somehow lose your BOB (Bug Out Bag) somewhere like it mysteriously disappears/vanishes right underneath your very nose! Plus if ya need 2 ya can always sew matching Solid Color Loop Velcro Panels completely on2 all Front MOLLE/PALS webbing of MOLLE Pouches 4 a more minimumlistic Belt Kit/Utility Belt Loadout as well as on2 Pouches without MOLLE/PALS webbing that don't come with Loop Velcro Panels after/when ya get those Pouches!
35+ years in the outdoors hiking camping etc . have try several radio s and i have found one thing in common reception stinks . i use a ham radio that has weather alot better reception . l carry small stove that uses fuel tabs or wood . dont worry about running out of gas fuels . 35 years in outdoors never had use for a hatchet . i love topo maps shows roads terrain streams have 5 of differant areas i carry 5 tent stakes to go with my tarp for shelter fishing kit in case more than 72 hrs
Really cool that you know the terms and classifications. Really liked the super clear water bottles. Mine are green or stainless. Wow, way too much to carry for a few days. But lots of ideas. Here's what I have learned about all travel: lay out everything you want to bring and cut it in half. Might have to do that twice...
Hey Selica! Covering lots of areas there and tailoring to your own requirements and ability to carry. I use a lot of mil' spec kit in my set ups, though agree that there are lighter options out there. Always good to have multiple options (redundancies) 2 in 1, 1 is none. All the best C
As a former 11B I’ve had more than my share of rucking with weight and there is no way you’re carrying that very far before you start shredding weight.
That is way too much stuff especially for a BOB. Here is what I have in mine. Knife, ferro rod with magnesium bar, a titanium 1 liter bottles with cup and lid, some #36 bank line, paracord, tarp, compass, headlight, shemag, gorilla tape, needle, lighter, saw, multitool, twig burning stove, poncho, pemmican, dried berries, beef jerky, tallow, spork, first aid kit, thermal scope, extra batteries, baby wipes, patoo, power bank and a ditty bag. And least and not last; knowledge, training, plan and a map of the area.
Nice video! Love seeing people's gear! Please may I suggest carrying a whistle? I usually have a mirror and a bright shemagh/scarf on me as well ("which can also be used for signalling"). Work gloves plus a repair kit (with tape) too. I carry less weight in other areas by comparison (really just a saw and a knife on the tool front, and a tiny stove). Love your set up though. All good fun! Safe journeys!
really nice to see you "back in action" after roughly 4 years without a video. And except for the overweighted Nalgenes your gear is pretty lightweight, which is always good.
@@PeakSurvival yes but their weight is 10x of what my bottles are, in your case (3 Nalgenes) thats a quart more water you can carry. same total weight. Nalgenes are sturdy, yes, but I have yet to see a PET Soda bottle leak in anyones backpack, I had to recover my backpack from a 20ft steep slope once and nothing bad happened (yes it did, to my eggs lol). But I've seen Nalgenes fail, from 5ft, so... nope I don't live in the desert mountains, climbing, in a bug out I won't have to deal with such a terrain AND my bottles come with Applejuice ; -) A whole quart!!
@@PeakSurvival I like Nalgenes too. I have a pair of them I have been using for many years, one of which has gone on like 4 deployments with me. Their banged up but they don't leak and work great. I think they are worth the minor additional weight.
So I’m going to first say that redundancy is good eg. Having backup firesteel and a lighter, but you have 6 different blades; the big knife, knife in the shovel, leatherman knife, folding knife, utensil, and the mini hatchet. Which imo is quite unnecessary and in my opinion for 72hrs mobility is key and having the pack stick off you like that is likely to be a burden when travelling. But thats just my opinion for my possible scenarios.
OH MY GOD! You are back online! I am so happy to see you back online! Welcome back. You were missed! Are you on twitter? Please keep in touch! Love your videos! Warm regards from the UK.
I suggest getting a padded waist belt, that weight is going to wear you out and your shoulders and back will feel terrible after 20 miles. . Get the weight on your hips, low and centered. You can get a military fanny pack and attach the pack to it and carry 2 canteens / 2 water bottles on each side. This will help with the load. Losen the top straps while normal hiking and the load will drop to your waist. when going up hill tighten the shoulder straps. Good luck , be safe. HAND SALUTE FROM A VET.
I can tell you are new to this. All your gear is new but a good load out for sure. Loose the aluminum cook set bad for your health go for stainless steel cook set "Stanley " cook sets are good or clean canteen cups your bottles will fit in them nicely. Your folding knife is not 154cm but it is good. Loose the shovel you already have a saw and a knife the big knife can dig or get a small shovel with out all the bits. Test your solar gear just in case you really need them in as emergency situation i had a solar radio too it let me down in an emergency situation they are not that great it might be better to have a spare fully charged phone battery. Your shovel gear "the glass breaker would be useless if it was packed in your pouch/bag and you could not get to it quickly" better off getting a combo knife glass breaker and keep that on your person. Did i miss the toilet paper? I would also keep a good pair of walking boots near your bag "Salomon" ultra light boots are great. In a bug out situation you would NOT want to listen to music because you will tell the marauders where you are. Also you do not need the " Bake co"? "Back oh". and an axe and saw? pick one or the other better to go with the Bacho . You worked at a survival school? Well you must be a beginner? Any way i enjoyed your video and load out just giving my opinion ...Thanks for sharing ATB Costa
derealove Survival why does she have to be a beginner? Just because you're so critical of her gear doesn't mean she's a beginner. People do what works best for them, maybe these things work for her. 😃
@@leahveal9501 I was giving my opinion and I said it was a good load out and I enjoyed her video . I asked her if she was a beginner ? It was NOT an attack so calm down and I also subscribed to her channel.
derealove Survival that's fine, it just seemed critical when she is doing a good job. As a woman I found it helpful and as far gear goes sometimes women do things a little bit differently than men. So there's that.
Leah Veal - she clearly hasn’t bugged out before and tried that equipment. It’s all brand new with no signs of wear or any use at all. Even though she’s put a lot of thought into her equipment, It doesn’t seem she’s truly thought it through enough. She needs to learn more bushcraft skill. It would reduce more than half her gear.
The ability to move fast and light without detection, outweighs the need for accommodating every contingency in all but most permissive conditions! In other words someone else will have your stuff!
Toilet paper - having a pooey arse will likely deter potential allies - and will just be painful, and uncomfortable after a day or two of hard living. Bivy AND a tarp? Flir camera for hunting (in a bag designed to last 72 hours - You won't be hunting - or hunted) Probably 7+ kg of water - most of which will be used for cooking, rather than survival. Multiple torches - with a high powered lamp etc.. (Just get a very low light head lamp - it'll last weeks on one battery) Absorption pads? I get it for menstruation - but for bleeding wounds? Hell no - just compress it. Large cumbersome radio? Just pack a mini radio - and use your phone for music - or get a phone that can do both. One extra pair of socks and no spare shoes? So i guess those cold nights will be extra cold if you decide to go to work in slip-ons. Multiple fires (Emergency, tinder, lighters, gas canister) if you're afraid of people approaching you - creating a fire will definitely not help - it is 72 hours - protein bars will be more than enough. Layers are better than a sleeping bag - you likely won't be able to escape a dangerous situation with your sleeping bag nicely packed up - if at all. - including your bivy - it is one or the other at bare minimum. Nothing like escaping a deranged and violent attack like being wrapped tightly in a sleeping bag with tiny, hard to see zippers - and then having to escape your bivy - and then having to pack it all away. Rather than just being uncomfortable in 5 layers of clothing and being able to walk away without any packing up. Also, none of this equipment looks used - meaning she has never had a chance to actually see what she would and wouldn't use. Not saying I'm a bloody pro at this - I'm not - i'm a bloody drongo when it comes to this stuff. But a lot of this is just common sense - its like when you go to a school camp and the supervising staff get you to unpack everything to see what stupid shit you brought. Especially toilet paper - you'll only make allies if people can poop and wipe in peace with you around.
@@neoaliphant she looks young and fit, but I couldn't carryall that. Depends on the situation. We can all do things we don't want to. I'm 58 years old, and I would lighten the pack up a bit. Not that what she has is bad but...........
I loved the video format and you did a fantastic job presenting it. With that said in my opinion that is a horrible 72 hour bag. Way to much gear in it. I could see it as an INCH bag but I would never attempt to bug out with a bag like that. Regardless of what kind of shape a person is in they would move much quicker, and farther with half the gear. In any event thank you for sharing the video and well done on the presentation.
Love the video. I shared it with my daughters and ex-wife. Might I suggest adding important papers? Like drivers license, passport, social security card, shot records, birth certificate. Just food for thought.
@@PeakSurvival here's something I highly recommend storing inside your Black 72 Hr MOLLE BOB (Bug Out Bag) that you're probably missing: 1 Condor Outdoor Knife Arsenal Case in Coyote or Olive Drab customly filled with 6 Spring Assisted Folding Pocket Knives (same or different/variety)!
@@jackchn23 I hiked 3600Km on the Appalachian trail with sometimes 10 days food which weighed more than this pack. Don't Worry I am in good shape and train hard.
Lol I don’t know why people saying it’s too much stuff. In a real SHTF situation, you’re gonna wish you had back up supplies to survive. I can understand a small BOB just to get to your safe location but some people don’t have bugout hideout and will be living on the run or in the woods 🤷🏽♀️ 72 hours bag is not enough for some people
@@layah28 wah wah wah wah wah wah wah 😂😂😂😂😂😂 don't get mad bro . Stay alone in your room and watch videos of people and think you have the first clue of what to do .
Seems like a small backpack for all that gear. Wouldn’t expect that to be very comfortable. And a full backpack isn’t very flexible if you want to add last minute items, pick up supplies or adjust your clothing.
Great video. However, I don't see how you actually put all that in a 29 liter backpack and I'm having a hard time believing that you did. My backpack is 60 and I'm struggling to put everything in there. Would have loved to have seen you pack that.
So i forgot to ask you the 2 questions i ask everyone. 1 how much exactly does this bag weigh 2. When can we expect to see a video of you doing a mock drill 10+ miles with this pack
Overall a good kit to work with. Maybe find some tweaks here and there and replace some item. Start with what you feed comfortable with and work from there...Although, I can’t understand what american backpacks have against Waist straps?! All that weight on your shoulders will wear you down fast...
Nice review. A couple of suggestions. I would lose the large lamp in favor of a flashlight type light source and a little more food or water or raingear. Also consider a two way radio as opposed to the radio you currently carry, music is great but i value the option to speak with individuals, especially considering you may not be getting the straight facts from broadcast sources. I notice you didn't mention firearms, any thoughts?
I Live in the UK at the moment so firearms are a no go. Also yes 2-way radio is a good idea. The flashlight is rechargeable and has quite a powerful torch on the end www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B071YTFD1V/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Thanks for your thoughts.
@@PeakSurvival ah. Inwas gonna mention more defense we well. Nat least you have a full tang knife you can carry on your belt if it came to it. That's something. I couldnt live in a country that didnt respect my right to defend myself.
@@aleksfoxtrot8044 If you live in the country in the UK and have land or somewhere to shoot you are allowed rifles and shotguns but No pistols and No Assault Rifles.
@@PeakSurvival yeah I know theres some firearm ownership over there. Which is why I chose my words. A country that doesnt respect your right of self defense. I know americans aren't the only people who enjoy firearms. Canada, UK, Australia, just to name a few. Heck in Canada once you get your permit to own a firearm you can walk in a convenience store and buy one. Lol. I still feel better that my wife can conceal a handgun on her person everyday to defend herself. Hard to conceal a shotgun or a rifle. And people look at you funny. 😜
Yeah take no notice of the jip .. my bug out bag is for months .with minimal kit , north west Scotland , one tent bag mat pan pot , 1 spare pants 2 ts 2 sox 1 waterproof jkt . Tea sugar powdered milk .( im english😆) my nikon's il buy a kayak when im up there ..i aint walking with that nikon bag its h e a v y.. but thanks ..(Bag booties and bag liner ) hygene i will smell like a fox after 3 months , toothbrush and sand thats it . No shovels no tools just a tiny tin opener my bushcraft knife which i hate its a scandi grind ( crappest blades ever) but it was a gift , i dont worry too much about people , the nutters are all in the towns , Wheres your pack horse ? 😀😀 thanks always interesting to see why some people torture themselves , good luck n take care
You really need to research "Thru hiking" and get tips for equipment from them. You need to research Ultra light weight (UL) packs, sleep systems, cooking and more. It'll save you LOTS of weight and possibly make room for more of the "necessities" you want to carry.
Funny you should say that I Thru Hiked the Appalachian trail a few years ago. I have an Ultralight BOB as well this is more of a bag I might take in the back of my car. Allot of the gear in here is designed for durability.
Fantastic Presentation of a BOB for the Women !!
I got my partner a 511 Rush 24 1.0 bag for her GHB..she never thought it was gonna be used but after her experience, she now loves it and it never leaves her truck.
During the 2009 Winter blow out storm, she used her (vehicle) GHB, to get to safety...and even though the walking was a challenge, it got her through the storm to a motel ...she said "It was great"
She used the pocket rocket stove to warm up , the emergency blankets and Gorilla tape , to cover the windows and keep her warm inside the truck (while she got her BOB ready and locked down the near empty gas tank of her truck ),
Her Power Bank kept her phone charged up to call for auto-help and update the family every hour , about her condition and where abouts.
The Mitts , Hat, neck warmer, xtra socks , hand and foot warmer packets and xtra layer long sleeve shirt was great for the cold windy walk, and really lightened up her pack to the motel .
************************************************
When she did get a motel , she had her emergency cash stash of $1,000 dollars and loved her fresh brewed coffee (cook set and pocket rocket stove) and listened to some radio tunes on her portable radio. All the power was out in the area for over 2 days.
She slept soundly , with her self defence weapon nearby and flashlight and the door jam , that she set up to prevent instant access to her room. (which later was reported that a few motel room occupants in other motels, were robbed), during this black out.

@@turtlewolfpack6061 I don't know. Maybe I'm tough on tools. I do carry a particular leather man sometimes, but the point is broken off the main blade. I have to be careful not to twist off the "2 dimensional" phillips bit. It is useful, but I have to baby it. If others have better success, that's good. Find what works for you. As I said, I carry it some times or keep it in my truck, etc. Usually I carry small vice grips in a knife case w/ a double screwdriver bit.
@@DougShoeBushcraft small vice grips are an amazing tool that I think are really underrated!
I agree that it looks like it would be heavy but there are a lot of great ideas here for a car bag.
There is a LOT of stuff there that you do not need. Weight is a HUGE issue once you start hiking distance under not ideal conditions. I too had most of these items several years back, UNTIL...I tested my bag by walking 6 miles in cold weather along railroad tracks. When I got home I immediately culled many many items. Several weeks later I was dropped off near a lake and hiked into the woods and stayed one night just to see how some of my gear would work in cool fall weather. Again, made several changes soon after. Many of the items you have can be removed completely, and other items can be greatly reduced in size and weight. Simplicity is better
Also get a backpacking hiking bag that also has a cushioned waist belt to help with the weight.
A very good set of BOB.
There is a lack of a change of clothes and underwear.
I would add coffee and glucose for sweetening.
For listening to the radio of the headphones.
Notebook, 2 pens for writing.
30x36 or 10x45 binoculars.
A very good set.
I think you did a good job. You may want to watch Jupiter Hikes. He set the record from Canada to the Everglades. He is a light weight back packer. Under 8 pounds base weight. These light weight back packers spend up to a year in the wilderness in the mountains etc. Once you see what the light backpackers carry you then start to add some bushcraft stuff. A mora Knife is cheap. I recommend a Ruger Mark IV 22 pistol with 500 rounds. The 22 is light and you can carry a lot of rounds without adding to much weight. When the Japanese seized an Island off of Alaska in WW II the US military issued 22 pistols and told them to live off the land and take out small game. I like your Bacco Laplander folding saw. I recommend either your hatchet or you saw but not both. Make sure your pack is no more than 20 percent of your body weight. The most important gear is your sleeping bag. I see all kinds of people trying to use a ranger roll. They then go out on a cold night and realize it won't work. Listen to the light weight back packers. Jupiter Hikes recommends at least a 30 degree bag and that dude sleeps under a tarp and not a tent. One winter hike and you will know if your gear will work.
Great intro to what the bugout bag is and what it does.
The other problem with a military bag is that in a bugout situation it makes you a target. You simply look like you have a lot of useful gear on you.
Thank you for your time, I already made a checklist!!!
Nice kit! That FLIR was something I have never thought about. Great idea and that is going to be my next upgrade. Keep em coming!
Thanks more videos coming
RedTSquared That FLIR costs $2500 bucks. Money to burn.
Good stuff I love the bag. I ended up settling for the rush72 2.0. Can't wait to build it up
Very nice list of equipment. I did not see if you had a signal mirror. So important if you injured your eye, or an injury behind where you cannot see, of course to be used as in a rescue in signaling. Thank you
Interesting bob. The dehydrated food is a good food for light weight. Personally bugging out would be my 3rd option. My home is where I have all my essentials and place of comfort. Good video! 👍
Selica, I haven't seen you on RUclips for years and years! I just happened upon this video by chance and was surprised when you mentioned your name. You're like a very pleasant "blast from the past".
Hi William, Thanks for watching yes I took a long break but I am back as I have a lot of time on my hands as you can imagine.
Nice kit, but there are some changes you can make to make your kit lighter and more versatile.Swap out your the Life Straw for a Sawyer Mini it's more versatile and smaller, also ditch the nalgen bottles and the bladder for two-one litre "Smart Water bottles, they're collapsible after use, lighter and will screw right on to the Sawyer Mini. Ditch the hatchet, your saw will be just fine for shelter building and processing firewood if needed. If you need a striking tool just cut a baton and chances are you won't be doing any serious wood splitting anyway.If you are going to carry a shovel get a fixed one piece, they are more reliable, make a better make-shift weapon are already assembled, and have less parts to fail and/or loose, Self Reliance Outfitters sells a titanium model that is very affordable and lightweight. As far as your cook set....it will work ,but a single wall 32oz. stainless steel bottle and cup set would be much more versatile and provide you with a bomb proof container to carry water in and allow you to make charred material easier, again SRO offer a great SS bottle and cup set. Upgrade your compass to Sunto MC-2 or better, might as well carry a decent compass since your survival may depend on it. Thanks for the video and for sharing.
NIce to see you back on the scene! Thanks for the videos.
Thanks for watching, good to be back @wlink2
Love how that packs suits you.
Fantastic to see you producing videos again! Great work!
@Wolfmaan Thanks for taking the time to tune in.
Welcome back Selica! Very informative video.
Thanks, Dave, Glad to be back. I have lots more videos coming.
I would add some p and g water purification packets as well. Fabulous products
I'd have a small solar panel for charging your lights, phone etc!
Those seal socks are AWESOME! I have to get me a pair!
They are rubbish
You are better off with a good pair of woollen socks
They fill full of water from your legs
Good to see back
Thanks for watching @Danny
Great to see you back.
@Vernon W Thanks for watching
For everyone commenting on the weight, she responded to a comment saying this bag is for bugging out in her car and she has a different, lighter bag for bugging out on foot.
looks like your moving house!
Be prepared
@@PeakSurvival great kit great presentation I don't have a problem with the amount of gear your packing mine is pretty heavy to but like you said pack weight is determined by being athletic or lazy lol
@@PeakSurvival I highly recommend putting 2gether a Belt Kit/Utility Belt that slide through Belt Loops of however many/much Pants/Shorts/Skirts ya can fit inside your BOB (Bug Out Bag) with Belt Suspenders attached on2 Belt Loops as well as attach either A.L.I.C.E. Pouches or MOLLE Pouches (1 Admin Pouch Open Flap or Zip Open customly filled up with Admin Gear that fit size of Pouch, 2 Medical Pouch 2 Open Flap, 2 Zip Open or both 1 Open Flap & 1 Zip Open customly filled with Medical Supplies in these categories that fit size of Pouches (Wound Care / Burn / Blister, Severe Bleed & Meds) & multiple GP (General Purpose) Utility Pouches whether Folding Roll-Up, Open Flap, Zip Open or mixture of all 3 different GP (General Purpose) Utility Pouches 4 a little bit more variety) on2 Belt(s) basically as a backup survival source 2 be better prepared/extra ready than be4 just in case you're forced 2 ditch your BOB (Bug Out Bag) somewhere or ya somehow lose your BOB (Bug Out Bag) somewhere like it mysteriously disappears/vanishes right underneath your very nose! Plus if ya need 2 ya can always sew matching Solid Color Loop Velcro Panels completely on2 all Front MOLLE/PALS webbing of MOLLE Pouches 4 a more minimumlistic Belt Kit/Utility Belt Loadout as well as on2 Pouches without MOLLE/PALS webbing that don't come with Loop Velcro Panels after/when ya get those Pouches!
Great Video and excellent Bug Out Bag.
35+ years in the outdoors hiking camping etc . have try several radio s and i have found one thing in common reception stinks . i use a ham radio that has weather alot better reception . l carry small stove that uses fuel tabs or wood . dont worry about running out of gas fuels . 35 years in outdoors never had use for a hatchet . i love topo maps shows roads terrain streams have 5 of differant areas i carry 5 tent stakes to go with my tarp for shelter fishing kit in case more than 72 hrs
Really cool that you know the terms and classifications. Really liked the super clear water bottles. Mine are green or stainless. Wow, way too much to carry for a few days. But lots of ideas. Here's what I have learned about all travel: lay out everything you want to bring and cut it in half. Might have to do that twice...
Hey Selica! Covering lots of areas there and tailoring to your own requirements and ability to carry. I use a lot of mil' spec kit in my set ups, though agree that there are lighter options out there. Always good to have multiple options (redundancies) 2 in 1, 1 is none. All the best C
As a former 11B I’ve had more than my share of rucking with weight and there is no way you’re carrying that very far before you start shredding weight.
I have another ultralight BOB If I feel I might need to head further away. This is great get to have in my car.
Yeah, I'd put that on my back and immediately snap in half.
That is way too much stuff especially for a BOB. Here is what I have in mine. Knife, ferro rod with magnesium bar, a titanium 1 liter bottles with cup and lid, some #36 bank line, paracord, tarp, compass, headlight, shemag, gorilla tape, needle, lighter, saw, multitool, twig burning stove, poncho, pemmican, dried berries, beef jerky, tallow, spork, first aid kit, thermal scope, extra batteries, baby wipes, patoo, power bank and a ditty bag. And least and not last; knowledge, training, plan and a map of the area.
This was a great informative video, thanks for sharing. All the best to you, stay healthy. 🤗
Good stuff! That's quite the BOB.
Thanks Rob, glad to see your back watching.
Nice video! Love seeing people's gear! Please may I suggest carrying a whistle? I usually have a mirror and a bright shemagh/scarf on me as well ("which can also be used for signalling"). Work gloves plus a repair kit (with tape) too. I carry less weight in other areas by comparison (really just a saw and a knife on the tool front, and a tiny stove). Love your set up though. All good fun! Safe journeys!
Great video young lady, surprised Bear grills or some other has not had you join them yet. You would boost their ratings big time! Cheers from ca.
Thank you for your kind words, Maybe one day?
Nice equipment, thanks.
really nice to see you "back in action" after roughly 4 years without a video. And except for the overweighted Nalgenes your gear is pretty lightweight, which is always good.
I have some lighter water bottles, but I like nalgenes because they are are so durable.
@@PeakSurvival yes but their weight is 10x of what my bottles are, in your case (3 Nalgenes) thats a quart more water you can carry. same total weight. Nalgenes are sturdy, yes, but I have yet to see a PET Soda bottle leak in anyones backpack, I had to recover my backpack from a 20ft steep slope once and nothing bad happened (yes it did, to my eggs lol). But I've seen Nalgenes fail, from 5ft, so... nope
I don't live in the desert mountains, climbing, in a bug out I won't have to deal with such a terrain AND my bottles come with Applejuice ; -)
A whole quart!!
Many items were too heavy, shovel, lock blade knife, eating utensils, etc...
@@shadowscout9872 I do have an ultralight kit, this is the one I take if I am not to worried about weight.
@@PeakSurvival I like Nalgenes too. I have a pair of them I have been using for many years, one of which has gone on like 4 deployments with me. Their banged up but they don't leak and work great. I think they are worth the minor additional weight.
The Rambo knife of shovels. lol
Surprised to see you're in the UK. If would be great if more folk here took an interest in survival
So I’m going to first say that redundancy is good eg. Having backup firesteel and a lighter, but you have 6 different blades; the big knife, knife in the shovel, leatherman knife, folding knife, utensil, and the mini hatchet. Which imo is quite unnecessary and in my opinion for 72hrs mobility is key and having the pack stick off you like that is likely to be a burden when travelling. But thats just my opinion for my possible scenarios.
I decided not to go with a tarp for shelter I got a hammock tent. You still should not leave water in the water bottles for longer than a few days.
Good Job Lady
You need to put a list of kit in the comments.
Done, Thanks
You are your own sirvival equipment lass. You look fit and healthy so youll be right. Nice pants yeah.
OH MY GOD! You are back online! I am so happy to see you back online! Welcome back. You were missed! Are you on twitter? Please keep in touch! Love your videos! Warm regards from the UK.
Thanks, I am glad to be back I am on Instagram and Facebook, Search for Peak Survival
I suggest getting a padded waist belt, that weight is going to wear you out and your shoulders and back will feel terrible after 20 miles. . Get the weight on your hips, low and centered. You can get a military fanny pack and attach the pack to it and carry 2 canteens / 2 water bottles on each side. This will help with the load. Losen the top straps while normal hiking and the load will drop to your waist. when going up hill tighten the shoulder straps. Good luck , be safe. HAND SALUTE FROM A VET.
Most underrated item in b.o.b... KNOWLEDGE! More knowledge = less crap to carry
I can tell you are new to this. All your gear is new but a good load out for sure. Loose the aluminum cook set bad for your health go for stainless steel cook set "Stanley " cook sets are good or clean canteen cups your bottles will fit in them nicely. Your folding knife is not 154cm but it is good. Loose the shovel you already have a saw and a knife the big knife can dig or get a small shovel with out all the bits. Test your solar gear just in case you really need them in as emergency situation i had a solar radio too it let me down in an emergency situation they are not that great it might be better to have a spare fully charged phone battery. Your shovel gear "the glass breaker would be useless if it was packed in your pouch/bag and you could not get to it quickly" better off getting a combo knife glass breaker and keep that on your person. Did i miss the toilet paper? I would also keep a good pair of walking boots near your bag "Salomon" ultra light boots are great. In a bug out situation you would NOT want to listen to music because you will tell the marauders where you are. Also you do not need the " Bake co"? "Back oh". and an axe and saw? pick one or the other better to go with the Bacho . You worked at a survival school? Well you must be a beginner? Any way i enjoyed your video and load out just giving my opinion ...Thanks for sharing ATB Costa
derealove Survival why does she have to be a beginner? Just because you're so critical of her gear doesn't mean she's a beginner. People do what works best for them, maybe these things work for her. 😃
@Evocati How would you know that ? She is half my age.
@@leahveal9501 I was giving my opinion and I said it was a good load out and I enjoyed her video . I asked her if she was a beginner ? It was NOT an attack so calm down and I also subscribed to her channel.
derealove Survival that's fine, it just seemed critical when she is doing a good job. As a woman I found it helpful and as far gear goes sometimes women do things a little bit differently than men. So there's that.
Leah Veal - she clearly hasn’t bugged out before and tried that equipment. It’s all brand new with no signs of wear or any use at all. Even though she’s put a lot of thought into her equipment, It doesn’t seem she’s truly thought it through enough. She needs to learn more bushcraft skill. It would reduce more than half her gear.
Hello , your video and your bag pack it s very nice and complete , and your are very beautifull tank you from Normandie France !
Thank you for your kind Words.
Nice gear!
Please could you show the slow down of you putting stuff back into you're bag please
Cute and cool 😎🤙🏼
The ability to move fast and light without detection, outweighs the need for accommodating every contingency in all but most permissive conditions! In other words someone else will have your stuff!
Toilet paper - having a pooey arse will likely deter potential allies - and will just be painful, and uncomfortable after a day or two of hard living.
Bivy AND a tarp?
Flir camera for hunting (in a bag designed to last 72 hours - You won't be hunting - or hunted)
Probably 7+ kg of water - most of which will be used for cooking, rather than survival.
Multiple torches - with a high powered lamp etc.. (Just get a very low light head lamp - it'll last weeks on one battery)
Absorption pads? I get it for menstruation - but for bleeding wounds? Hell no - just compress it.
Large cumbersome radio? Just pack a mini radio - and use your phone for music - or get a phone that can do both.
One extra pair of socks and no spare shoes?
So i guess those cold nights will be extra cold if you decide to go to work in slip-ons.
Multiple fires (Emergency, tinder, lighters, gas canister) if you're afraid of people approaching you - creating a fire will definitely not help - it is 72 hours - protein bars will be more than enough.
Layers are better than a sleeping bag - you likely won't be able to escape a dangerous situation with your sleeping bag nicely packed up - if at all. - including your bivy - it is one or the other at bare minimum.
Nothing like escaping a deranged and violent attack like being wrapped tightly in a sleeping bag with tiny, hard to see zippers - and then having to escape your bivy - and then having to pack it all away.
Rather than just being uncomfortable in 5 layers of clothing and being able to walk away without any packing up.
Also, none of this equipment looks used - meaning she has never had a chance to actually see what she would and wouldn't use.
Not saying I'm a bloody pro at this - I'm not - i'm a bloody drongo when it comes to this stuff.
But a lot of this is just common sense - its like when you go to a school camp and the supervising staff get you to unpack everything to see what stupid shit you brought.
Especially toilet paper - you'll only make allies if people can poop and wipe in peace with you around.
Great Video! I can see a few things we have that should be in your kit. Love to have you try some things out if you're interested.
Very heavy! How much does that bag weigh?
I was wondering the same thing.
Looks like a lot of metal, I wouldn't want to have to carry it. She may be stronger than me, though.
@@neoaliphant she looks young and fit, but I couldn't carryall that. Depends on the situation. We can all do things we don't want to. I'm 58 years old, and I would lighten the pack up a bit. Not that what she has is bad but...........
I loved the video format and you did a fantastic job presenting it. With that said in my opinion that is a horrible 72 hour bag. Way to much gear in it. I could see it as an INCH bag but I would never attempt to bug out with a bag like that. Regardless of what kind of shape a person is in they would move much quicker, and farther with half the gear. In any event thank you for sharing the video and well done on the presentation.
Good video! I’ve been getting down the survival pipeline on RUclips recently and I prefer watching female RUclipsrs talking about this topic!!
Love the video. I shared it with my daughters and ex-wife. Might I suggest adding important papers? Like drivers license, passport, social security card, shot records, birth certificate. Just food for thought.
Woah, welcome back!
Thanks Jason, glad to be back.
@@PeakSurvival here's something I highly recommend storing inside your Black 72 Hr MOLLE BOB (Bug Out Bag) that you're probably missing: 1 Condor Outdoor Knife Arsenal Case in Coyote or Olive Drab customly filled with 6 Spring Assisted Folding Pocket Knives (same or different/variety)!

Oooooh ur cute. And good info too
What is the weight of the bag when loaded ? It looks like a good amount of gear and supplies.
Too much. She is never going to carry that any distance.
I can’t see her hiking more than 5 miles with that load.
Yes true, ways too heavy. How many knives, saw, a radio and 2 torches
@@jackchn23 I hiked 3600Km on the Appalachian trail with sometimes 10 days food which weighed more than this pack. Don't Worry I am in good shape and train hard.

Lol I don’t know why people saying it’s too much stuff. In a real SHTF situation, you’re gonna wish you had back up supplies to survive. I can understand a small BOB just to get to your safe location but some people don’t have bugout hideout and will be living on the run or in the woods 🤷🏽♀️ 72 hours bag is not enough for some people

OH, I forgot to say I enjoyed the video. SALUTE
Seems like a small backpack for all that gear. Wouldn’t expect that to be very comfortable. And a full backpack isn’t very flexible if you want to add last minute items, pick up supplies or adjust your clothing.
154 centimetres? That would be a sword.
Great video. However, I don't see how you actually put all that in a 29 liter backpack and I'm having a hard time believing that you did. My backpack is 60 and I'm struggling to put everything in there. Would have loved to have seen you pack that.
That all fits in a 29L bag? 🧐
How much does this pack weigh?
Currently building a bugout bag because the world is ending around us. Thanks for the advice. Wish I started sooner.
What do you think of the multi tool knife fork and spoon
Has your gear been used in the field? I find it helpful to try different gear set up's before emergent use is necessary.
This is my backup bag where everything is new but I have multiples of quite a lot of these items. Thanks good feedback.
Bug out bag bag?
Should have named the channel Double Bubble survival it would have been more fitting.
I actually would have really liked to see your packing method. Packing is a far too under-rated skill for camping/survival needs.
So i forgot to ask you the 2 questions i ask everyone. 1 how much exactly does this bag weigh
2. When can we expect to see a video of you doing a mock drill 10+ miles with this pack
The most important item...a rifle-handgun-ammo to keep all your goodies.
Overall a good kit to work with. Maybe find some tweaks here and there and replace some item. Start with what you feed comfortable with and work from there...Although, I can’t understand what american backpacks have against Waist straps?! All that weight on your shoulders will wear you down fast...
Nice review. A couple of suggestions. I would lose the large lamp in favor of a flashlight type light source and a little more food or water or raingear. Also consider a two way radio as opposed to the radio you currently carry, music is great but i value the option to speak with individuals, especially considering you may not be getting the straight facts from broadcast sources.
I notice you didn't mention firearms, any thoughts?
I Live in the UK at the moment so firearms are a no go. Also yes 2-way radio is a good idea. The flashlight is rechargeable and has quite a powerful torch on the end www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B071YTFD1V/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Thanks for your thoughts.

Can you list links for the items in this video?
Military bags aren't comfortable? Wish I knew that when I was hiking 30 clicks with one
I feel like there a lot of INCH gear in there.
You really need to research "Thru hiking" and get tips for equipment from them. You need to research Ultra light weight (UL) packs, sleep systems, cooking and more. It'll save you LOTS of weight and possibly make room for more of the "necessities" you want to carry.
Funny you should say that I Thru Hiked the Appalachian trail a few years ago. I have an Ultralight BOB as well this is more of a bag I might take in the back of my car. Allot of the gear in here is designed for durability.
