How to Build a Go / Bug Out / Get Home Bag & Why

Send us Fan MailWe're going there, the quintessential preparedness foundation, the ubiquitous bug out bag that is the gold standard of idiocy in the prepper space. The kits are constructed principally for mental health, to provide a sense of security, the idea that you've taken steps to ready yourself and your family to navigate disruptions.But you haven't.Preparedness is about ensuring better post event outcomes & there is no evidence to support a correlation, let alone causation, between the construction and maintenance of an emergency kit / bug out bag and better outcomes.There are some specific activities that may require the carrying of capabilities that don't exist at your destination, that is intelligent planning. If you're travelling more than a day's walk from your home, then you are responsible for the provision of animalistic requirements for you and those for whom you're responsible. Conduct that analysis and if there are shortfalls in availability at your destination, then you might need to consider carrying a piece of equipment.For travel, that might simply be a whistle, flashlight and a water filter. Remember, these kits are cool, tactical even - but you have to carry it, potentially a long way. Think, plan and then execute - you likely need very little.Support the showhttps://preparednesslabs.ca/
