Bug-Out Bag Checklist Builder
Set your profile in the filters on the left. The checklist adjusts itself, tracks your progress, and totals the weight as you pack, because a bag you cannot carry is furniture. Progress saves on this device.
Your profile
Weight budget: aim for 15-25% of the carrier's body weight, all-in. If the total runs hot, cut shelter weight and comfort items before water or medical.
