Checklist Your Way To Survival

A good survival checklist can go a long way.

There’s a reason that a ton of industries use it. Airline pilots are probably the best example I can think of. Astronauts use a lot of checklists as well. The military uses checklists every day to make sure nothing is forgotten. Doctors and nurses use checklists because without them, they may forget to tend to a patient which can be VERY bad news! That’s why we’ve put together the following survival checklists, along with a short description for reach item. I know that it will help you get ready for the coming apocalypse, so start filling this sucker out!

Acquire two different water purification systems.

This is so that you have a solid backup plan. Some purification systems work better in certain situations than others. Also remember that even though boiling water can work, this should not be considered one of these two systems! Think of it as a last resort.

Learn how to hunt and fish.

Obviously this includes learning how to clean and cook the animal. You can actually eat a lot of different parts, but there are a few things to be careful with. For example, when dressing the animal you must be sure to not cut into the intestine. If you do then the animal’s feces will spill out and the meat is ruined!

Learn how to build shelters.

Again, just knowing one method to build a shelter isn’t good enough. So what if you know how to build a log cabin- I highly doubt you’ll have those kinds of resources or time! Oh, you’re an expert at building a metal shack? What if you’re in an area without the proper metal materials? Don’t screw yourself- cover your ass and learn several different things.

Pack a compass and map of where you’ll be living.

Have you ever gotten lost? Kinda sucks. But what if you got lost during the coming apocalypse and couldn’t find your way back to camp? That would really suck. But, you can’t blame me because I put this on your survival checklist…

Get a solid backpack and have it ready to go at any time

This is pretty self-explanatory. The apocalypse isn’t going to happen at any known time. You have to be ready to get your stuff and GTF out of there!

Get a dog and train it how to hunt.

You don’t want the apocalypse to happen and then find a little puppy and then train it how to hunt! Instead you want your dog to be ready to fight off attackers, help you hunt, and be a loyal companion for when the shit goes down.

Identify three (or more) possible places to set up camp. Know how to get to them by foot.

Even though you may have access to a car or bike, don’t count on it. You need to know exactly where you want to hole up. Find a place with ready access to food and water, and hopefully has a built-in shelter like a cave or fallen trees.

So there you have it! It’s not the most complete survival checklist ever, but if you do all of these things you’ll be MUCH better prepared than most people.
