NORAD45,

Thanks for that very complete list. I have a question though. I assume all this goes into a bag, or backpack (framed or otherwise), my question is how much does your gear weigh.
I weighed my bag the other day, with all my survival gear, first aid kit, extra food and .5 liter bottle of H20, it comes in at about 6.5 lbs. Is this too heavy?

Thanks,

Mark G
