I'm a homebody, if I ever go ten miles from home, its a rarity, so I plan accordingly. you might have just read Home packed MREs, increase or decrease at your whims, but here is my mini GHB my gimped butt can carry and not drop dead:
Starting with a 308 sized magazine pouch, in it goes:
a 2$ truck stop poncho and space blanket.
My Altoids can candle.
Leatherman multitool.
Quality pocket knife.
LED flashlight+ batteries.
List of phone numbers.
50 feet of nylon twine.
MACE.
1 pill bottle with my daily dosages+caffeine+B vitamins+ 4 goody powders. (just use what you like.)+Rolaids.
Hard candy.
A "Skoal" can full of fire starter ribbon+ several BIC lighters and Maybe, just MAYBE room for a cell phone battery booster, I don't own either but there is still a bit of room.
Put ranger bands around the outside and store it next to the bag with the home packed MREs and medical kit.
Because someone will ask:
Fire starter ribbon is cotton cord about 1/4" in diameter soaked in Borax, allowed to fully dry and covered in paraffin, then rolled up and put into a smokeless tobacco can so you can use as little or as much as needed.
HUH. I think I'll add a dozen nails, JIC.
EDIT:
And because Chaosdawn inspires me, an 8X10 cover. they're almost weightless!
