This is a bag that has all the basic necessities to get you through 72 hours and is meant to be lightweight (weight is important) so you can grab it and still run/climb/escape in whatever way needed. Basically I just wanted to see what other suggestions people might have to add.

I'll break things up by section and explain a few of the items on there in case people wonder why in the world I need Tang.
