Whilst conducting a routine check of my equipment, I thought I would share the contents of my get home bag with you for your thoughts and comments.
The entire contents packs into the front section of the backpack (with the exception of the shemagh, and first aid/trauma pack which I put in the main section.
This bag goes to work with me, and I carry it around all day, every day. There is enough room for my laptop (at a squeeze) and a small gym kit (not shown in the picture).
This kit supplements my pocket EDC (see my other submissions), and my car bug out bag, so its pretty comprehensive.
There are no spare clothes or sleeping bags etc in this kit for a couple of reasons 1) i cant fit them in it, and 2) this is my get home bag so i would be intending to get back home within 24 hrs.
I'm looking for your advice on how I can cut this down even further, reduce weight (its sitting around 14-15lb currently), and/or supplement it with key items I have forgotten. I want to keep this as purely a "get home bag" so ideally would like to reduce bulk, keep the items to the ESSENTIAL ones, and keep weight down.
Looking forward to hearing your suggestions.
