My pack shovel is a little larger; it's one of the Cold steel shovels. I got a decent deal on it, and like the solidity of its design.

I replaced the wooden handle with a fiberglass version, so it'll take more wear and tear.

I have one of those too, they're nice. If I want to carry a larger shovel, I usually carry a US tri-fold one. They pack pretty small.

I look at BOBs, survival, and neccesitty bags differently but all three will have many common items. Like said above there are a lot of great sights out there to get you started in the right direction. Make sure you don't overlook meds (doctor given) and don't laugh--tooth paste and a tooth brush.

Nothing to laugh about regarding tooth paste and brush. They are important
to have with you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> as is a decent first aid kit.
