http://www.captain...l-list/dl1-toc.htm Here is a good list of information and things to have. Enjoy.
And here is a simple list of things if you're building a starter bag. These things are good to have no matter if you are a survivalist or not, natural disasters can happen damn near anywhere.
Bug Out Bag Contents
1. The Pack – I have a LC-1 “Alice” pack but any quality pack with enough capacity will do. Stick with camouflage, dark green or other natural colors that blend with the terrain.
2. Water – A canteen with cup and cover for your belt, water bottle and a good filter.
3. Fire – Waterproof matches, a magnesium fire starter and tinder.
4. Food – Pack enough to last 5-7 days. Rice, oat meal, beef jerky, energy bars etc. Another option is MRE’s and the freeze-dried foods. Choose foods that are light weight and a suitable shelf life.
5. Stove – A small stove is essential it you want to stay hidden. Smoke and noise from the cutting and burning of wood would be undesirable if you are in hostile territory or being pursued. I have a Peak-One backpackers stove, there are others but this is what I have and can recommend.
6. Sleeping bag – If you are in a cold area a good sleeping bag could mean the difference between life and death. Get a light weight “mummy” style bag rated to -20 degrees.
7. Shelter – Rain poncho and tarp or compact tent, stick with natural colors that blend with the surrounding area.
8. Cooking – I have a Stainless Steel 5-Piece Mess Kit, that I ordered from amazon.com but any lightweight kit will do.
9. First Aid – It’s best to assemble your own kit, tailored to your needs, or if you are lazy you can buy a ready-made kit. Don’t forget to add personal medications.
10. Light – I have a 2-AA Cell Mini LED Flashlight Mini LED Flashlight and a 9-Hour Candle.
11. Tools – A folding saw, Swiss Army pocket knife, and fixed blade knife. A light weight shovel and Machete are nice, but add extra weight.
12. Clothing – At least one extra pair of socks and underwear add other items if you feel the need and have the space.
13. Fishing – Line, hooks and sinkers and a few small lures. I also have a small gill net for catching fish.
14. Snare wire – I make my own from copper wire. Don’t forget to include at least 50 ft of parachute cord.
14. Plastic bags – Two or three large lawn bags and several zip-lock sandwich bags, can be used for a number of tasks and to keep things dry.
15. Small Binoculars – See game and enemy before they see you.
16. Sewing kit – Needle and thread don’t forget to include a few extra buttons.
17. This n’ that – Head net, electrical tape, face paint, gloves, sharpening stone etc.
18. Firearms – This is where feathers get ruffled and wounds opened. Everyone has their own idea of what the “perfect” survival firearm is or should be.
