Having the ‘ultimate bug out bag' is a goal for many individuals who envision a future scenario in which they must rely on their skills and their preparation to get them out alive. Having gear you can depend on is very important, and having that gear assembled correctly could save your life. See what goes into making the ultimate bug out bag in the video below.
In this ‘ultimate bug out bag,' we see a lot of emphasis on tools for providing shelter and building fires, as well as some supplies for providing water and light. There is little emphasis on providing food, apart from an energy bar and some small books for edible plants.
While many may find this odd, it's a great plan because a bug out bag is only supposed to last you for a couple of days until you get to your location, and you can easily go a couple of days without eating. In survival situations, a good shelter and a good night's sleep will help you immensely, and this bug out bag does an excellent job of ensuring that.
It wouldn’t give me a link to the books he carried. Please pass that on if possible. Thanks

Would be cool to see “the ultimate”….
But alas, nothing but clickbait and a dead link
I don’t necessarily have a bug out bag, but I do have my edc bag. I have it packed in a small blue and grey backpack. It contains: first aid kit with battle dressings, and more mundane things like eye drops and band-aids along with a weeks supply of my medications and a lighter, a multi tool, small flashlight and extra batteries, a wind up flashlight, a waterproof pack jacket, leaser gloves, waterproof paper and writing tools, two spare magazines for my pistol, and a USB battery for my phone. On me I have: two knives, a flashlight, chap-stick, Glock 19, weather appropriate clothing and shoes, cell phone.
Not really a lot of stuff but it would handle 99% of anything I needed it if I knew things were falling apart I would put together a different kit.
