Over the last few days I put together some more sections of my BOB and upgraded a lot of gear.
Since Xmas was good to me, I've added the following to my BOB and EDC gear:
Alpine 2 person Bivvy tent,
2x Gerber Firecracker LED lights. (amazingly bright for a single AA),
some insect repelant, sun screen, and other essential components to my FAK,
some .22 and 410 shells for my m6 Scout in a water tight box,
sharpened my Gerber paraframe and CRKT M16,
potable water and PA+ to my water treatment kit,
9x Cliffs Bars and added to my food supply,
2x nalgene 32oz wide mouth bottles, a firefly lantern lid, and a space saver cup,
Snow Peak Mini Solo Cookset,
Snow Peak titanium spork,
Titanium sierra cup,
alcohol burning pepsi can stove and fuel bottle,
2 packs of 5 Bic lighters,
note: I'll add to the list as I go back through my gear this afternoon to make sure I have all my essentials.
I'm looking at adding a decent multi fuel stove to my kit as well and using the alcohol stove as back up. I'm leaning heavily towards the Optimus Nova. I've gotta watch websites and some local stores for a good sale though.
So how about you? What did you do to prepare for the zPAW?
