I just took some photos of one of my packs for another site and thought I might as well post it here. This one is a "warm weather" set-up for hiking, floating, certain hunting/fishing, etc. I have another one almost exactly the same that sits in a bigger pack with room for clothes, extra ammo, etc.

Some of the contents include:

1. Camelbak MULE
2. Large carabiner and 6 feet of prussik line.
3. Gerber tool and big rock knife
4. small knife sharpener
5. pocket chainsaw
6. 550 cord
7. Small fishing kit with leaders
8. whistle, mirror, button compass, firesteel, magnesium bar
9. contractor trashbags and stuff sack for gathering/transporting
10. small but well stocked first aid kit with OTC meds such as benadryl
11. full size compass
12. tea candles, matches, pencils write in the rain paper, duct tape
13. playing cards with survival info. on them
14. headlamp and water purification tablets
15. folded up small loaf pans for cooking, eating drinking gathering.
16. most stuff is in waterproof baggies
17. nails
18. cotton balls soaked with vasoline and placed in empty pill bottle.
19. survival bivy bag (much better than a space blanket).
20. probably a few other small things I tucked away and forgot about.

This whole thing is pretty light and obviously also carries water!
