My goal is that with nothing but what god gave me and my BoB I can walk 100 miles. I think it will work if I say the BoB includes the 10 liters of water that is stored next to it. With any luck at all I'll be able to get more water, in which case life is good. Travel routes are planned with that in mind.

Given that it can be rainy and cold in the SF Bay area any time of year, the BoB includes boots, socks (2 pair), briefs (2 pair), t-shirt, thermal underwear, shirt, pants, fleece pullover, fleece balaclava, gloves, sun hat, and a full Gore-Tex rain suit (Marmot Precip). Everything is synthetic so it will wash easily, dry quickly, and look good without ironing. If I have to deal with some authority I will look like an well-prepared citizen, not like either a refugee or a para-military wannabe.

The BoB can carry 8 liters of water, but not with all the clothes inside. Plan is to grab the BoB and water and scoot. When I get a chance, sort through the BoB and what I have on and make room for water in the BoB. Inappropriate or excess clothing will be abandoned.
