Abstract

A survival backpack system includes a main bag, and a pair of shoulder straps for mounting the main bag on a user's shoulders. The system includes a plurality of gear packs, all the same size, and each containing a different type of survival gear. The main bag forms a plurality of gear compartments, each slightly larger than each of the plurality of gear packs, each of the plurality of gear compartments being accessible through an opening in the top panel. A hydration compartment is accessible through an opening in the bottom panel, the hydration compartment being sized and shaped to receive a hydration pack therein.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A survival backpack system adapted to be worn on a user's back and shoulders, the survival backpack system comprising:
 a main bag having a proximal panel, a panel, separated by a pair of side panels, a top panel, and a bottom panel;   a pair of shoulder straps attached to the main bag for mounting the main bag on the shoulders of the user;   a plurality of gear packs, all the same size, and each containing a different type of survival gear;   a plurality of gear compartments, each the slightly larger than each of the plurality of gear packs, each of the plurality of gear compartments being accessible through an opening in the top panel;   a hydration pack; and   a hydration compartment accessible through an opening in the bottom panel, the hydration compartment being sized and shaped to receive the hydration pack therein.   
     
     
         2 . The survival backpack system of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a hip bag having a proximal surface, a distal surface, separated by a pair of side surfaces, a top surface, and a bottom surface;   a pair of waist straps attached to the hip bag for mounting the hip bag on the user's hips; and   a plurality of additional gear compartments, each the same size or larger than one of the gear packs, each of the plurality of gear compartments being accessible through an opening in the top surface.   
     
     
         3 . The survival backpack system of  claim 2 , further comprising a first mounting mechanism adjacent the bottom panel of the main bag, and a second mounting mechanism adjacent the top surface of the hip bag, so that the hip bag and the main bag may be removably joined together for both being worn by the user. 
     
     
         4 . A survival backpack system adapted to be worn on a user's back and shoulders, the survival backpack system comprising:
 a main bag having a proximal panel, a distal panel, separated by a pair of side panels, a top panel, and a bottom panel;   a pair of shoulder straps attached to the main bag for mounting the main bag on the shoulders of the user;   a plurality of gear packs, all the same size, and each containing a different type of survival gear;   a plurality of gear compartments, each the slightly larger than each of the plurality of gear packs, each of the plurality of gear compartments being accessible through an opening in the top panel;   a hydration pack;   a hydration compartment accessible through an opening in the bottom panel, the hydration compartment being sized and shaped to receive the hydration pack therein;   a plurality of bottom gear compartments, each accessible through an opening in the bottom panel; and   additional survival gear adapted to be stowed in the plurality of bottom gear compartments.
