Although survival kits that contain some food, water, a first-aid kit, and some means of making fire are great to have on hand, perhaps more important is having the right attitude. Here are some tips for productive ways to think that can assist you when disaster strikes. *Stay calm and think about the next step you should take. Disasters can be overwhelming, and many people may panic and throw their hands up in distress. But thinking about the situation in terms of small increments can be helpful for getting you out of the crisis. Concentrate on the one thing you should do next, and do it. *Believe that you can do something to make a difference in the situation. If people believe that life happens to them and they can't do anything about it, they won't do anything at all. Believe in yourself and your ability to take action, and your chances for survival are much higher. http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/crisis-center/200807/developing-the-survival-attitude-part-1-3 [/quote]

Since I am short on cash I have been looking at Craigslist for a good used backpack.
I've come across this Osprey Argon 85 for $250-OBO, and the size is Large. I see that the price is good but I know absolutely nothing about backpacks...will this one be the right size for an average size/height women?
Where is a good website I can go to to learn how to adjust it properly?
Any other recommendations on what to look for. I'd rather not use the duffels I have, but something I can carry out my things on my back.
