Well, first there's the fact that this is supposed to just get you to where you're going; my assumption is that I would be going no more than a dozen miles away.
Then, my assumption is that if you have to keep going (your safe-house wasn't so safe), you're going to try to find places to hole up at night, and possibly for a day or two while you get your bearings and figure out where you're going from that point.
The whole point is to have enough on you to get to where you need to go.
But you're right. It's heavy.
That's why you need to work out with the backpack on. :)
And yes, backpacker.com (http://www.backpacker.com) is awesome - thank you for the link!
