What's in my Go bag (AKA Bugout Bag/BOB)? - OLD VERSION

Update - 2014 October 15:

While my Go bag is constantly in a state of renewal, rotation, and updating, I've recently been making some pretty major changes/updates to my setup, as I embrace more of the items that technological advances have made possible over the years. Rather than change this post, I'm leaving it here and will be making a new post with photos and additional information sometime in the near future, so I can start to keep a record of how my gear changes over time.
