I'm not hiking in the woods. I could with one of the backpacks, but not doing it. I will leave if a hurricane comes through and come right back afterward if the house is still standing and not flattened by trees. For the hours I'm in a hotel, I'll have the two backpacks and a rolling bag - and the Yorkie. I'll also grab the fire resistant box with important papers in there and take that (plus the jewelry bag).
With the rolling bag, I could live away from home two weeks and have plenty of water.
I do have the military can opener and a spork - those are in my purse right now. I have a multitool in my car and there's one in each backpack that came with it. I have put a package of paracord and ducktape in one of the backpacks. Those backpacks came with everything one needs for days including three days of packaged water and food bars. I know if I have one of those, I can stay out of the rain with a tarp with ropes on it and a rain poncho and have what I need. There is first aid and toilet paper and tooth brush and toothpaste. Just grab the bag and leave.
Each person has to decide what to have ready to go if he/she/they have to leave for a period of time.
Having nothing ready to leave is foolish if one lives in tornado or hurricane or earthquake country or the power goes out in a freak event (that happened to me in hot summer).
