070: Bugout Bags, The Essentials.

	In today's episode, Sam Coffman and Shaun McKee discuss bugout bags. Starting with the bag itself, there is a lot to think about, such as:
The specific purpose of the bugout bag How much weight it needs to carry Considering your bag for the "long haul" and how to test that How much should you spend on a bag? What is "Molle" gear and what are the benefits? What is a practical "layout" of a gear bag? How do fanny packs, load-bearing vests and other types of equipment bags factor in?
Shaun talks about the new camelback packs that can be found here: http://milspecmonkey.com/weargear/packsbags/290-camelbak-trizip
Sam mentions the Treehugger Survival site with links to gear sites which can be found here:http://treehuggersurvival.com/survival-equipment.htm
