I have not weighed mine. It is heavier than my wifes. We can both carry the weight for the distances we would need to carry them.

65lbs with 6liters of water in it, and enough food for 2 weeks.
What In The Heck Is A B.o.b
im 6'2" 250 pounds.
but i gotta say, it still wears me down pretty fast.
id be draggin 60 pounds behind me lol.
but i look forward to getting a bit stronger and adding a bit more to it.
im trying hard to get back into shape after a few years of doing almost nothing.
Which one?
Day pack 5-6 pounds. Fanny pack, 2 water bottles/canteen
BOB's 3 days, about 20 pounds, gal of water several water bottles/canteens ( at about 8pounds per gal.
Truck bags 60 pounds, (but, can be broke down/gear/sleeping stuff/food/water)
Two weeks, clothing and survival stuff, 45 pounds. This is my "always packed" travel bag.
There is some built in redundancy.
More or less how mine are.Quote:

i try to keep mine as light as possible so i can cover ground faster and just be more agile. i keep mine between 15 and 20lbs at the most.

I'm pretty close with Hunter and AFLineman. If I had to bug my first preference would be vehicle. I can just toss everything in. In addition, I can add 10 gallons of water in a matter of seconds. I keep it store just for that.
Make sure the caps are on tight. :innocent:Quote:

Thanks for bringing this subject up, gotta get out and remove the 12 packs of bottle water out of the trucks.
Actually they are packed in Rubbermaid Action Packers, so damage will be mimizied I guess.
13 degrees right now.
Alcohol doesn't freeze. :innocent:

In a real bug out scenario I'd probably leave the heater, electronics, lantern, stove, propane unless I knew I could re-up the propane and batteries somehow. That would drop 10+ pounds. so, 55 lbs.
Lose the water and gun and it comes in at 42 pounds. I would end up having to procure my own water after 2-3 days anyhow so I don't really see the point in bringing it along. I would keep the containers for storage though.
If I invest in or eliminate a lighter tent/ shelter, cookware, sleeping gear I can get it down to about 20-30 lbs.
For me, not being extremely fit, anything over 50 lbs. becomes quite cumbersome after a mile or so of hoofing it.
wow. thats a lot of gear. what all do you have in there?Quote:
