Imagine that in the middle of the night you are awakened
from your sleep and realize that the world has been destroyed either by
zombies, earthquake, meteor, water, etc. You now need to get out and survive.
If you were lucky enough to store up in your house that’s great but if you
house becomes leveled, well there goes your supply!
If you have not heard of the term “Bug-out” then I am sorry
and I have serious reservations on your likelihood of survival. However do not
fear, I am here to explain it all.
Bug out – to move out of your position very quickly because
your position has been compromised.
Now that you know the terminology, now you need to pack your
bug out bag. I have comprised a list of items that I believe will be helpful in
surviving! Check it out and start collecting so you will be ready.
1. Multi-tool – great to use in
various situations and it does not take up a lot of room
2. Compass – do not just depend on
the north star!
3. A map – because GPS means nothing
if the system is down.
4. Flint
and Fire starter – duh! You need a fire from time to time!
5. Crank/Solar Power AM/FM Weather
Radio with flashlight and cell phone charger
6. 12 hour yellow light sticks – use if
you need a small amount of light but if you have a crank flashlight then you
should save them for important situations
7. Flashlight – preferably hand
cranked because duh, batteries do not last forever!
8. Survival Knife – do I really need
to explain this one?
9. Water Packs – just in case in the
beginning but boil water that you find!
10. Water Purifying tablets – It is
best to boil your water but you can use these as a last resort.
11. MREs – again great in the
beginning but you should be finding alternative food sources.
12. Compact folding binoculars – great
for being on the look out.
13. Rope/Cord – cause you never know
and partnered with a tarp makes a great make-shift shelter
14. Anti-diarrhea medication –
diarrhea is worse than zombies so make sure you bring some along
15. Stainless steel canteen – because you
can use it to boil water
16. An empty can – great to cook food
in or boil water
17. Signal Mirror – to contact a
rescue team
18. Safety Whistle – great for
contacting others in your group
19. Survival Fishing Kit – you need a
stable source a food and this is great to have
20. Camp Axe – you need to be able to
cut firewood amongst other things
21. Folding Shovel – gotta use it to dig
a hole for waste
22. Roll of duct tape – duct tape can
always save a lot of problems
23. Tarp – great for a makeshift
shelter
24. Ponchos – they are great to use to
avoid getting wet
25. Survival guide – unless you
already know how to you might as well have a guide to help you
26. Deck of Cards (for boredom – gotta
keep yourself sane one of the most important things to have!)
Oh yeah, a gun might be nice!
The most important thing to remember is that with the right gear
you can survive in anything!
