Arthritic Go-Bag or Old mans Giddy-up-go Bag
by Henry
Serious weight restrictions have limited my EDC bag. This thread is for old geezers who still refuse to give up! I'm 65 years old, so I had to give serious thought to content and weight. I divided my pack into 4 separate compartments. 1. Hydration-camelback, filtration 2. Food- Hobo stove, Fire starters, utensils 3. Medical kit- (complete) w/6mo. meds 4. Personal kit- X-tra clothes, hygiene items, Emergency survival pack Attached to my bag are two pvc tubes, one is my fishing unit, the other holds my fire tinder, and dried herbs. My bedroll is attached to the top of my pack, civil war style. It has various items rolled up inside. I have chosen each and every item based on quality first, then weight. Finally, I choose a Henry 22mag rifle w500 rds ammo. My choice in knives: mineral mountain bowie, applegate-fairbairn folder, case pocket knife. Total weight is 32.6 pounds.
