3. • You grab you duffel bag
and a tactical backpack
and throw it in your
bug-out-mobile to get
out of dodge.
• On your route out of
town, you get stranded
in a riot. You left your
car and your duffel
because you decided to
bug out on foot.

4. • One problem… 5 miles into your march, your our
shoulders get sore, your back gets tired, and your knees
get weak.

5. Don’t Let Your Bag Be Your
Weak Link
• Keep a framed pack meant to distribute weight and keep
it close to your centre of gravity.
• If you don’t choose the correct frame for you, you could
be the recipient of severe consequences.

you need.

8. External frames
1. They have better weight dispersal.
2. Less compensating for shifted weight in your pack.
Reminder: If you want something close to your body, so
there is less weight causing you to lean, then skip the
external frame.

9. Internal Frames
1. Close to the body.
2. Feels like it is more “connected” to your body.
3. End up leaning a little less.
Reminder: They are poor at dispersing weight evenly, so
you will end up doing more work on one shoulder than the
other, or not quite getting the perfect amount on your waist.

10. Hybrid Frames
1. This is not the best of both worlds. It is pretty good at
both, but sacrifices some in each area.
2. Hybrid frames have better weight dispersal over internal
framed packs, but are closer to the body than most
external frames.
3. Although there are increasingly different hybrid frame
packs coming out, a very reliable design is the
“perimeter frame”.
