Critique this bug out bag | Emergency Preparedness | Forums

Tent stakes and no tent? No form of shelter all, not even a small tarp or piece of parachute. There really needs to be a sling on the shotgun or that thing is going to get real heavy real fast. No way to carry water.

I was always taught that your bag should address food, water, shelter and protection. Food is there and so is protection. The others are hinted at but not addressed. A simple water bottle would be a help.

Well sleeping off the ground is a good thing, just don't let it rain, sleet or snow or this hole will be spotted quick.

I will have to admit, I have never once thought of adding a hammock to my pack and I own one. However adding a "net" does open up some interesting possibilities. I will have to add a lite weight tarp to have a roof over my head. I will have to give this some thought.

Way over priced. 7$ for 3 lighters.

I have never heard of these hammocks before but have now. I followed the link provided and spent the better part of 2 hours looking at the site and watching the videos, reading reviews. All I can say is Thank You for pointing out my error. If this is even half as good as the reviews then it should be well worth it. Too bad my chunky butt has to buy the really expensive one. It is nice that they included the weight and height limits to assist in the decision making.
