I'm in charge of Disaster response for my Church, and I teach emergency preparedness. I REALLY like your 1st Aid setup. My PROFESSIONAL opinion is that you have done an EXCELLENT job!
Nice bag! Suggestions: A canvas repair needle. Kevlar thread or paddle wire, fishing hooks. A limb saw (Northern hemisphere) machete (Southern hemisphere) Aluminum foil and some medicated cotton balls (Vicks Vaporub, Vaseline) can also be used as tinder. Might as well start the paperwork for the sat-phone, if you haven't already, you know you want it. ;) Thumbs up.
Hey ! Says the Canadian Super, very nice i am buying a max.3 this week, and what struck me the most is, the magazine pouch for flashlight and multitool, just got to have this.
Nice setup. You can paint your aluminum windscreen with Rustoleum high temperature paint. It seems strange that you have faraday bag protection for your solar charger, but not for any of you electronics. If they get zapped then really no need for charger.
I plan 20 miles or so. I'm a nurse working in a major hospital, I may not get out right away so I've packed heavy. The winters are cold with snow, in summer I might thin it down. I'm 6' 6" tall, this bag has a waist strap but its useless to me so its difficult to answer. If I had one I could use I would.
I really don't understand, your get home is 22 miles yet you have 3 meals, cooking kit and extra fuel that you think you will not need. i think if it truly is a get home bag, 22 miles keep it to water, trail mix/ bars, waterproof/clothes and walking socks & shoes . Do you really need knife sharpeners , fork & knife ,spatula , solar panel , etc if your bag is to get you home 22 miles i think you have a heavy bag if your bag serves other purposes then fair enough . You did ask for feedback so to sum up, a bit heavy for a 22 mile walk. I must say i love your falcon iii wolf gray .
Rob, Thanks for the feedback. Have you ever read the series "The Borrowed World" by Jim Horton? In his book he was stranded over 200 miles from home due to a business trip. I planed with that kind of scenario in mind, worst case kind of thing. However, I use this bag a lot around the farm or out camping and hunting. As far as your assessment goes I couldn't agree more, go light and fast. My best option would be to follow the example of my step daughter who runs marathons. Her plan is just that, light and fast and home in 4 hrs or less. I don't run marathons, 10k is usually my limit. My plan, thin this down to fit the mission, give away or stash the extra and hustle home. But for now it's a really fun bag to have and show off to friends and family. Thanks for watching.

You have enough stuff there for a bug out bag! Really nice setup with good quality gear.

Hey ! Says the Canadian
Super, very nice i am buying a max.3 this week, and what struck me the most is, the magazine pouch for flashlight and multitool, just got to have this.
Thanks for watching. Let me know if you come up with any good ideas.
Very nice set up.
Great run down mate. Does everything pack and carry ok when your water bladder is full? Thanks

Very good set up.
derealovefestival thanks, it was fun putting it together.
us vet. Best bag yet no junk
How far do you think you'll be walking with this backpack? Do you think a hip belt is needed for a long hike?

Nice bag, lots of quality gear. You should do an update video. Also, audio wasn’t the best
Great gear!
The only thing i see that's missing is a silcock key, otherwise looks like you have all the bases covered...
The water blatter you are using is ?
It's made by source.
hey bro - is the water pouch the 10 in. or 12 in. ?
schultz396 the bladder is made by Source, it's their 2L bag, about 15 inches long.
I think he was asking about the water bottle pouch. 4x10 or 5x12?

Correction "The Borrowed World" is by Franklin Horton and Kevin Pierce. My mistake.
lizzardlife thanks for reply i thought it might be a multi use bag , so that's fair comment . thanks agn . Rob in Scotland
You may want to move that Sam splint out of your bag if you break your leg you probably can’t get to that
Get a better knife sharpener, those pull through sharpener are very bad on a blade. Get some small stones. Otherwise great videos!
Need some fishing gear bro.
I know, everything else is in there. And I LOVE fishing! Brain Fart.
a lot of unnecessary weight, other stuff is good,
