That is a pretty badass present. Kinda jealous really.

We pack couple cans of mixed nuts and home made trail mix, check them for freshness monthly. Couple canteens of water. Protein bars in the BOBS.

Dry oatmeal packets are easier to eat dry than Ramen. Plus they have sugar for a boost.

I see a lot of food, high protein bars etc. Something i'm not seeing, toothbrush, tooth paste, or baking soda. Baby wipes, something along the lines of those clorox wipes for actual sanitizing, AND TP, or those travel tissue packets. You stuck for more than 3-4 hours, something to clean teeth and lower extremities never hurts. We have a small travel toiletries kit packed with everything else.
We look at a breakdown bag as carry on luggage. What do you need if everything else is unavailable.

I think we did this a few years ago and yes TP in a zip-lock bag is what I have always used. I even have that in the car just in case.

There's only so many westword and thrifty nickel boxes on street corners. You eat, eventually you need to leave a reminder.

This is mostly what my EDC bag is already. When I do fly some where. I just toss the whole thing into the suit case and I'm good to go with my overnight back. Very convenient.

Today I learned something. Jim poops. Here I thought he was superhuman.

(btw, you might want to ask SouthPaw if you can borrow one of his empty peanut butter jars)
