I’m a female with a back injury. I know my limitations. I’m not able to carry anything heavy. After mapping out my walking distance from work (14 hours, through bad neighborhoods) I started carrying cargo pants in my get home bag. This will help distribute weight. Also hoping I can conceal my vital tools if I’m approached. Thank you for the videos.

@billlaird7332 10 месяцев назад

Tracy, I understand your problem. I'm in a similar situation as I am elderly and have some age related issues. When I put together a comprehensive get home backpack, it was much heavier than I expected. I had difficulty just picking it up and putting it on my back. I quickly realized that it just wasn't going to work for me. My solution was to put together a get home survival vest in conjunction with a pair of cargo pants. I used an inexpensive fishing vest as the basis for the survival vest. I carefully went through the contents of my get home backpack, eliminating any "nice to have" items and replacing heavier items with lighter options whenever feasible. I pack a fire kit, water kit, IFAK, Swiss Army Knife, and change of socks in the cargo pants, so I will have them on me in case I lose the vest. I'm using a Wazoo Cache Belt, which is similar to a money belt in that it has a long compartment built in the belt that contains a variety of survival items. Instead of a handkerchief, I carry two folded bandanas, one in each of the back pockets in the pants. I wear a compass on my watch band. I wear a "dog tag" necklace under my shirt that includes a red medical ID tag that has information on my medical conditions and allergies. Also on this necklace is a small flashlight, whistle, and two medium-sized safety pins. I wear a Wazoo Cache Hat baseball type cap. It has several small compartments that contain "boo boo" first aid items. This solution distributes the weight you are carrying over a greater portion of your body than just a pack on your back. The vest also helps in concealing the 2A "freedom tool" I carry. This has worked for me.

According to a defense department person known to some people I know, Russia may use an EMP attack before and maybe immediately before a nuclear attack to strand people in the cities and military bases to do more damage. He said to watch for the Chinese officials in this country and the Chinese who are buying properties by military bases, they may leave before this happens via the Russians notifying Beijing before an event happens. The Russians may evacuate Moscow beforehand or do a “practice” (as a ruse) evacuation in their major cities-especially Moscow. I love your program!

@JayM409 10 месяцев назад

They will not evacuate Moscow, not warn expatriates ahead of time. These are people who have murdered tens of millions of their own people. They do not care about their own population, so they will never risk their chance of a successful attack or their own safety by putting out such an obvious warning of their intentions. An escalation of tensions will be our only warning, right before a series of EMP attacks.

I have to interject here about compass use. No, you can't just accept that the needle points North, because it does not point to true North! It points to Magnetic North which slowly changes position in North Eastern Northern Canada. You have to find out the degree difference in the magnetic declination and adjust the little screw on the better compasses to allow for the declination or you could be off your bearing by as much as 22 degrees! I was a pathfinder using the compass for a few years in the Army before the GPS. I also was in mining exploration in the Arctic for years and used a compass for navigation and marking mining claims. So, go ahead and prove me wrong on this point, if you can!

@scudrunneradv3269 10 месяцев назад

Cary two heavy duty black construction bags in your bug out bag. They don’t take up much space. If you need to cross a body of water like a river reservoir etc to maintain stealth you can place one bag inside the other trap the bags half full of air and tie the ends separately. You can strip down to your skivvies place your pack and clothes on top of the make shift raft. Carry a length of para chord to tie to your raft then make a loop and drape across your shoulders like a sling to tow the raft behind you. The bags can also be used for shelter Or ponchos as well.

When I've done ultra marathons and 10k etc, I set a goal if I have a plan of the route. I might push myself to go first 5 miles with no breaks, then see if there's a natural place to stop and recoup, like a post office, bridge, school. If travelling through the night, I might want to reach the back packers by 9pm, then leave at first light. I did this twice on Mount Fuji. I implore everyone to get some really good marathon socks with silver in them, they help prevent blisters. Also, get a good pair of boots, and break them in. I go through a lot of trousers and jeans where my chubby tights rub together. It hurts like he'll if you rub through a pair of jeans around the inner tight, it's like a rope burn. So I suggest a change of trousers, plasters (band aids) and dressings, and spare socks. I recommend packing high calorie food, coconut water and electrolytes drinks.

We tend to think about what we will do to get home when we are 200 miles from home (or whatever). But if we look at the most likely scenario, it will be gettin from work to home. I’m semi-retired, but if I go to town for groceries I am 18 miles from home. If I just pack the day pack I have in my truck with a bit of food and 6-7 bottles of water, I can make it home in 8-9 hours. Yes…I have a bin in my truck with hiking boots, summer/winter clothing, everything I need. So do the math for your most likely scenario.

@nevertolatetoprepare2802 11 месяцев назад

The cramping at the range was not from dehydration. It was from the loss of electrolytes. My zero water filter recommends using a pinch of Himalayan salt in each glass of water to avoid losing too many electrolytes (It takes out the good along with the bad.) This salt has more electrolyte minerals than just sodium chloride. This is why you should have salt tablets in your bag.

@redpillnibbler4423 11 месяцев назад

Excellent,I’d grind it up finely in advance so it dissolves quickly in water.👍 Also add some sugar or honey for energy.

Just some feedback on the maps - i purchased laminated maps for all states that I have to travel through or across plus, i keep a US road atlas. even if i am not driving, i might get stranded and need to walk back. i never go on a business trip without them. I also have my old school GPS. the battery doesnt work but, if there is any source of electricity, it can still be used because, the satellites will still be in orbit. i will not count on my phone being available. The Going Home book series by A. American (Chris Weatherman) was a great callout. I think that we all have to remember one important thing - you cannot prepare for everything and you cannot prepare for the apocolypse. Do what you can to survive to the utmost of your ability and practice execution. I appreciate your work, Don. Been watching your content for years.

@middle-agedmacdonald2965 11 месяцев назад

If you are truly prepared, you need no food for at least two weeks if you have about 20% body fat or more. I wouldn't carry food, it's dead weight, and completely unnecessary. Doubling up on water would always get you further in every situation. That's in my humble opinion. Prepare your body by doing fasting. It's health benefits are amazing while you practice, and in times where food my be inaccessible, it makes it easier to focus on going forward rather than worry about prep. If ounces are pounds when it comes to walking, by fasting, you'd likely be ten to fifteen pound lighter in fat by the time you reach your destination. That seems huge. Thanks for the tips.

This will triple the amount of ground you can cover and save calories. If you have the room for a small pull behind trailer as well that'd be super helpful. Aside from that, all the standard gear would also apply.

I have been stuck overseas on business during the SARS disease outbreak, that closed all travel from that place (as it was a hot spot) and to my home for > 6 weeks. So as I was also on an island all I could do was bunker in and watch out exposures in that local environment. Actually when I was leaving the local immigration folk we upset that I had exceeded my planned time at that place, but fortunately that was worked through ok. Sooch, what you are showing is more often what you could/would take on a planned hike, rather than during an emergency situation.e.g. the number of fire starting options. Sure a backup is good and looking at my own stuff I have several of these cases myself, that I have to address. While I would like to take my light weight hammock, there are likely to be many cases where a hammock is going suitable, so I ditched that idea.

When ounces count, MREs are to freaking heavy, maybe a couple to start your treck, but they are used first to shead wieght. If you're going to use only a tarp for shelter, you must have a mosquito net of some sort so you can rest. Really have to adjust bag for the distance your expecting. Short bag could have fancy cooking gear and MREs, while a long bag needs more survival gear like hunting, fishing, and light weight food to supplement the days you can't find a food source.

Instead you should carry layers that you can add if it does actually get cold. But even for a 10-day trip, if you had maybe another pair of undergarments, and a few pairs of socks, you could combine that with some clothing repair skills and go a lot farther and for way less weight.

Ik mis een zakmes. Ik heb een normaal formaat in mijn EDC en een grote met zaagje o.a. in mijn BOB. Ik heb maandverband op voorraad erin, om niet elke dag schoon ondergoed te hoeven aandoen in geval van nood, maar dan toch wel schoon te zijn :)

some hammocks come with a bug screen incorporated into it and it zips up . We use woobies at home all the time. How do you carry all of that stuff?

Make sure your metal bottle is single walled. That hydroflask looked like a double wall vacuum bottle. Don’t try to boil water in that.

In my experience(in regards to lacerations) a suture kit and iodine prep swabs are a must. However, a skin stapler is a must. A large laceration can take a bit of time to suture. A skin stapler is nice when you’re on the run. My $0.02

My only issue with hammocks is this… in the winter time bridges ice over before roads do. That’s because the weather is getting to it from under it as well as on top of it. Same way with hammocks. I feel like you would struggle a lot more to stay warm. Sleeping on the ground is the best way to stay warm in my opinion. You can dig out the ground a little bit to keep the wind off of you a little better if you’re not sleeping under some kind of shelter or in a tent and you can sleep on some kind of insulation and trap your body heat and your body heat will also warm the ground your sleeping on. Idk how many of you actually camp in tents and stuff but they trap heat super well.

They make the hammocks specifically for zero degree weather, ice, wind, and snow.

@jayteefishing1543 Месяц назад

@@lanehill9660 yeah, I know but that doesn’t mean you’ll be warm necessarily. It just means you won’t die. My point still stands.

The other thing for gear The backpacker smaller people are disabled a handcart like they do for groceries wrapped and larger wheels on a little heavier you can bring a little more gear with you water keep your main things on your back or carry but you can bring more for the sober the group, also you can conceal a long gun easier leaving your clothes on the top, Amazon third dirty we get harassed and I've been a lot of muscle dirty clothes in many cases gray man, Latin dark grays are Urban camouflage

Would you discuss the difference between a long-distance GHB and a typical GHB? Is the long-distance bag a larger version with the same items? Are there any items unique to a long-distance GHB? I would not typically have a woobie unless it is cold. Is that one difference? Maybe a long-distance GHB is prepared for all conditions all the time?

An EMP is a good scenario, but when talking to noob's I refer to it as the zombie apocalypse. As it disarms them and puts a smile on the face.

You might as well carry Walmart on your back, with all the crap y'all have for your get home bag,. When I was 10 years old I would go into the woods or brush country for weeks, with nothing but some fishing lines and hooks, a boy scout mess kit, a ferral rod a knife a hatchet and the bedroll and tarp and some cord. And my dog. Who was half timber wolf and Belgium Shepard. That's all I would carry and I survived. I didn't need all those other things, the only food I took with me was a few tins of sardines Incase I couldn't catch fish or small game. Oh, and I can't forget my trusty sling shot that came in very handy. And water canteen. Palco, boy scout canteen and mess kit. But my pack weighed about 20 lbs.and I could carry it all day long. All that stuff y'all have I couldn't last an hour....

I just did my first 400K (250 miles) bike ride. 21hours 45 If you are a prepper and think the possibility of an EMP is real but you can't ride a bike for more than a few miles you are doing yourself a big disservice. The sport of Randonnuering is the sport of preppers who think the possibility of an EMP is real.

@talinor1618 11 месяцев назад

Remember if your canteen is double walled it may cause built up gas/air between layers when you heat the water vs. Single wall. I don't know if it would explode or just swell up and leak but sounds dangerous to me.

@patriotpop2436 11 месяцев назад

That’s why you need a single wall vessel for heat/cooking. Lessons learned, it only takes one time, if you are using a single wall container that is used for heating a liquid you will be drinking from, the heated cup will scald your lips. Heat in a single wall container transfer contents into an insulated cup then drink.
