    In colorado springs there is a meetup group for prepping. Their bug out bag basics:

    BOB is a last resort option - evacuate home scenario (packed and ready to go)
    Enough food & supplies to last you 3 days minimum but preferably a week. Should include tools to survive longer if need be.
    It is going to be heavier than a standard backpacking rig. Should carry 25% of your body weight.

    Clothing - not entirely made of cotton. Layers off different farbic is key. Wool socks and bandanas.
    Have blades/ knives, fire making tools, water filtration, mres / energy foods, cooking pot and navigation.

    I have an EDC bag (Maxpedition) with various stuff I would need day-to day (kid boo boos, water bottle, snacks, multitool, etc)

    I also have a get home bag with bare essential shelter/survival stuff, 72 hours of food, extra ammo, emergency credit card.

    Then I have a personal Bug out bag for each of the kids and ourselves if we would need such a thing if we are ever evacuated from our neighborhood.

    I am also building an expedition trailer from an M103 chassis to tow behind the family bug out vehicle. work in progress...

    But if we (2 adults and 4 kids) are bugging out...(not ideal) S. really H.T.F. as we are prepared to bug in for a good 6 months or so.

    I've got so much updating to do!!!

    My bag is posted on here,
    http://www.ar-15.co/forums/showthread.php?t=49029
    but the thread needs a massive update as I've changed it all around. Added many things. Including multiple attachment packs to make it bug out. Plus....... I made my 5.11 tactical AR case into somewhat of a "bag".

    I'll update this sheet when I can!!

    that actually would be pretty cool to sit in and learn somethings from others, cause I'm sure there's situations I haven't thought of yet. Although you never could prepare for every situation you would go crazy attempting too.
