Here’s another loadout that Kevin B uses for adventurous outings with his family, including a bivouac.
Kevin: I am the pack leader of a small tribe made up of 2 princesses and my lady… We rarely go on expeditions for several days, but I like to have enough to set up a small “comfortable” bivouac to put a touch of adventure and expedition to our outings.
To this loadout, I of course add food according to the adventure we are having, and I can add kitchen utensils if necessary. I also add clothes in the same way.
- SAVOTTA M backpack
- Carabiner and cord to attach the backpack to a tree (to avoid soaking and dirtying the bottom)
- Reading
- My “utility” pocket (I will have to make a listing for this pocket too)
- Original “Ticket to the Moon” hammock and its bag of fixing cords
- “Jungle Bag” down from Snugpak
- Folding saw
- First aid kit and a survival blanket
- Reusable garbage bag from Helikon Tex
