Yeah, I wish I could post it up but this move is killer. A lot of my stuff is packed in boxes and I don't even know where my camera is. Off the top of my head from memory I have:

- Extra uniform (I would rather not travel in uniform, especially during and emergency)
- Lightweight raingear (MEC hydrofoil) top and bottom
- 3 l camelback bladder, filled
- Heavy duty work gloves
- Ballistic eyewear kit
- FA kit, well stocked
- Multi-tool (Leatherman surge) with bit kit/bit driver
- Fenix LD 15 AA flashlight (love this thing)
- LED headlamp
- Spare batteries
- write in the rain notebook and pen
- Iphone 4/Mophie case
- Pelican case for phone
- Brunton storm lighter
- Snow peak titanium cup with lid
- Cliff bars (x 8)
- Camelback electrolyte replacement tabs, 1 tube
- MP1 water purification tablets (x12)
- Road maps of my area
- Magellan Triton GPS (provincial maps loaded)
- Spare dry socks (2 pairs)
- Small hygiene kit, enough for about 4-5 days
- Jet scream whistle
- Starflash signal mirror
- Heat sheets 2 person emergency blanket (orange and silver one)
- Special ID card, Specialized drivers license, passport, immunization booklet
- Special issued tools of the trade

I know there are a few other things, but I can't think of them at the moment. If traffic is thick/blocked and I couldn't take the 4x4 a lot of this could be packed in the pouches of the mountain bike.(35-40 minutes on bike) The goal is to make it to my locker where most of my work goodies are, but there is a possibility of having to report to an alternate location (thus the spare uniform) in the event I could not make it to the one in my locker.
