Quick question about packs...
Bug out bags, get home bags, all your misc bags. How often do you 'air' them out? I know a lot of you use items and switch out your items fairly regular, but of those that don't, and have a BOB or Just In Case pack, do you unpack and check your items? How often? We have widows here and I have no desire to bring one of those buggers along on a trip...
Cheer up, the worst is yet to come.
At a bare minimum, you should change out expired food and medications. That would give you a minimum of when to check.
I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

I like to remember to unpack/check things every 3 months or so but don't always manage to.

Sometimes they bite.
I unpack the bag after every trip and repack it. Not a bug out bag, so much as a back woods bag. I just swap stuff that I don't use for stuff I think I might.
Yea, we can be mighty fierce.."WHAT"........I have been communicating with several widows on Match.com, is there something I should know about widows.........????

Be wary about anything you meet online Sourdough. Especially if they wind up having more than two legs!
More than like likely for Sourdough....that would be "gently gum"........LOlSometimes they bite.
Anyway,..... if it has food/water in it, kinda spring and fall....if not .....might go for years.....except anything with batteries.
Trucks bags, spring fall......
I use daylight saving time as a guide....it's just a convenient reminder.....
My go everywhere bag gets repacked often for different trips (using it on this trip)....You know long sleeve short sleeve, long johns in/out......but basics stay.....SAK, small fixed blade, flashlight, first aid, fire stuff, extra meds, glasses, cash....and ah...other assets.
