This is one illustration of the items you could consider for your own Bug-Out bag. We also carry pre-made Bug-Out bags ready when you are. Depending on your location and situation, you may want to add or delete items suggested here.
Bear in mind, this pack has all the elements to last you longer than 72 hours, with the exception of the food items, and your ability to find a source of water.
What would you add or remove from yours?
Have you ever considered publishing an e-book or guest authoring on other sites? I have a blog based on the same ideas you discuss and would really like to have you share some stories/information. I know my viewers would appreciate your work. If you are even remotely interested, feel free to send me an e mail.
There will possibly be situations when you need to pit your self versus the planet and mother nature. The likes of forest fires and earthquakes actually do come up. The standard bug-out bag will allow you to as well as your nearest and dearest live through the critical initial few days and nights.
