1. Make sure it is clean and dry.
2. Stuff it, don’t fold or roll it – this can put creases in the fabric over time and add to deterioration of the fabric.
What Gear Does An Experienced Backpacker Take On The Trail For An Overnight, Cold Weather Hike/camp?
by James on Dec.25, 2009, under Around the World
Backpacking, tent camping, and spending a night out in nature are great activities. An overnight trip doesn’t seem much time to really get into it. My suggestions is decide where you are going to go, what season you will be going, who you will be going with. What activities you will be doing, and what are the conditions you may encounter. Take into consideration, your age, abilities, capabilities and weaknesses. Assess your situation. Plan for the worst and expect the best.
For a two full day – one night trip I would consider the length of hike you will be involved with and how much you are willing to carry. Fully loaded 4500 to 6500 cubic inch packs can way as much as 70 lbs. A ten mile hike in and a ten mile hike out with all of that weight can be most tiring for even the avid hiker.
The basics for a good hike involve some planning for weight, and size. A moderate down or poly sleeping bag that can be compressed into a stuff sack and a lightweight tent will keep you quite comfortable for the time being. If water is available and you can filter it will reduce the weight of carrying water. Hydration systems are the latest generation to the old clumsy canteen. You will need to consider the body will need at least 2 liters of water a day in mild or moderate temperatures. Foods that are easy to prepare are great for overnighters. Dried fruits and nuts provide an excellent source of energy while hiking. Remember, what ever trash you bring in you will need to take out with you. Plan for the change of weather, a pile of clothes make a good pillow at night. A compass, and map are great to have. (learn how to use them first!) I carry a handheld GPS and a camera. Enjoy nature and the outdoors.

What is a Backpack Bug Out Bag and Do You Need One?
by James on Oct.31, 2009, under Around the World
The most efficient way for anyone to carry important stuff around is with the use of a backpack bug out bag. Unlike other types of travel bags, the backpack bug out bag leaves the user’s hands and arms free, so it’s easier to move around, climb or carry other things. This makes it the top bag of choice for adventurists and travelers, thanks to its strong, sturdy design that allows it to withstand heavy loads.
The backpack bug out bag
The backpack bug out bag is a convertible backpack. It can be expanded and turned into a basic travel bag or it can be zipped up and made compact to turn it into a backpack. The main compartment of the bug out bag is expandable, allowing for a larger number of gears and supplies to be packed.
The backpack bug out bag is built for strength and is often made of fabric such as canvas. To avoid tearing, the bag often features reinforced stitching on common stress points. It is also designed with several inner and outer compartments to provide extra storage for small items and easy access to commonly used equipment.
The backpack bug out bag is a popular choice among military personnel, adventure travelers, sports enthusiasts and those whose jobs require long exposure to the outdoors.
Advantages of the backpack bug out bag
Probably the best reason the backpack bug out bag is a bestseller is its expandability. Because the bag can be expanded, it offers more room for storage, making packing a breeze. The bug out bag is an excellent choice for backpackers, travelers and adventurists who like to bring along a lot of stuff and pack them in just one bag. It’s also an excellent alternative for people who travel for extended periods of time but do not wish to pack more than one bag.
If you are an adventurist, hiker or camper, it is the perfect survival bag to use because it’s roomy enough for a number of gears and equipment but handy enough to make traveling on foot easier.
The backpack bug out bag is also excellent for long distance travels, even if it means keeping the bag hanging from your back for long periods of time. The bug out bag has been carefully designed to ensure that the weight of the bag is distributed over the user’s center. This makes walking, climbing and running relatively easier because the weight of the bag will not threaten the user’s sense of balance, regardless of how heavy the load is.
In terms of comfort, the backpack bug out bag is designed with padded straps and body to provide a buffer zone between the user’s back and any hard or sharp contents of the bag. This also makes transport of heavy or numerous items more efficient.
