This is an in-depth look at developing a loadout for high-speed, agile, GHB/backpacking loadout that's safe and comfortable. As it turns out, the requirements for a solid GHB run parallel to lightweight backpacking requirements. With just a few additions, this backpacking loadout becomes an incredibly versatile GHB to get you home if things go badly.
All items are included in the GHB, with specific additions which are mentioned at 19:52
