If I am not at school I add a HK45C loaded with RBCD and a spare mag, all riding on a Kramer belt with an IWB3 in horsehide.


I live in the desert so my priorities are driven by that fact. I carry the Sawyer extractor because there is a high concentration of snakes in my AO. I carry the belt trauma kit mostly because I commute on a motorcycle and must prepare for the eventuality that I will have an accident or be hit by a car, with a secondary purpose of stopping bleeding if myself or another student is injured. Since I am unable to carry a handgun I have opted for the E2D and CQC10 to increase my survivability in the event of a violent encounter. I live approx 15mi from my school with two sources of water in between which is a god send here in AZ. All gear weighs in at about 5 lbs in addition to my school supplies which would be offloaded en route during an emergency situation.

On my motorcycle I carry a set of Frog togs rain gear which can be used as intended, and also as a windproof layer in the event of storms, rain or dust. My Cordula and Kevlar rain gaiters, when used in conjunction with jeans and boots, make a passable, improvised snake gaiter. I also carry a heavy sweatshirt on my bike year round, because a well insulated 98.6 degrees sure beats a non insulated 120 degrees.
