What do you want to have in an emergency?
This is the question all hikers ask themselves when they start packing their bug out bag. The bug out bag holds necessities that are required to survive a few days if something goes wrong on the hike. You need to make sure everything is small, lightweight and absolutely necessary. Bug out bags are perfect for preppers who want to make sure they’re ready for the absolute worst situation.
There is a lot of technology that can be useful in a bug out bag. Here’s the best tech you should have ready for an emergency.
Heat
Omni-Heat Sleeping Bag Liner (Price: $49.98): Although the ability to start a fire is essential for survival, you’ll also need to stay warm when you sleep at night.

You’ll stay toasty without needing an outlet or some source of electricity.
Hydration

Instead of carrying a heavy jug of drinking water, you can take your LifeStraw with you and drink from any body of water you find in the wilderness.
Food
