Or any kind of emergency bag.

A natural disaster where your power goes out for 3 days is something more likely to happen and prepare for. In Texas we had the freeze that our infrastructure wasn’t ready for that took out our power for a week. Back in 2021 I was not prepared for it. I was the type of person that thought I would wing it as I go, which is just not practical. I remember even having to get in my car and let it run many different times just to charge my phone and enjoy a bit of warmth. now I have a power bank that will charge my phone from 0 to 100% 8 times, as well as a power station that can do it 57 times and run every appliance.

It’s good to have 2 weeks of water on hand and food storage. You could buy 6 5 gallon jugs of water at the grocery store for peace of mind. Mountain house is a good brand that makes freeze dried meals that actually taste amazing and last for 25 years stored (chili Mac is incredible). They’ll run sales and it’s worth looking into and getting their 10 cans on sale. You can go on Amazon and buy a single pouch to test out. They are pretty good AF especially considering a 25 year shelf life. You can also get canned foods and a few giant peanut butter tubs at the store. Just get something that you actually like so you can eat it before it is time to expire and swap out.

I did a lot of research and got a backpack to fill with stuff. Never know when a major emergency can happen. Still a work in progress. The backpack is still light and can swap/add some items. What am i missing?


I can give direct links to these items and other recommendations to anyone who asks.

if you ever needed you're just extending a miserable existence a little bit. If you stockpile a good amount of stuff you will quickly be targeted by raiders/street gangs of survivors who may keep you alive awhile for meat

I watch Youtube videos about those. neat

This is my assessment also. If civilization is destroyed, there won't be much to live for anymore. The other side will be much more enjoyable tbh. That said, a bug-out bag is probably a good idea for certain people in certain countries, areas etc. It depends.

Yeah the worst case scenarios don’t really seem desirable to survive, but I figure if there was a power outage for a few days/a week or a major natural disaster, it would be great to be prepared than not. I can take out whatever I need.

Yeah, i'm in this camp too. If there is some catastrophic event, I hope i'm at ground-zero so i'm immediately vaporized. You can have all the provisions in the world, but none of that will stop the marauders and gangs in their fortified "Mad Max" lifted trucks from plowing through any fencing you have, shooting you in the face and ransacking your bunker.

all i need is the rope

Nothing is ever going to happen.

You could probably use more food. Not too sure what the water pouches look like, but I suggest a reusable water bottle too. You can always keep hot water in it and put it in your sleeping bag for warmth, at least.

errybody meet me out at Slab City so we can run a survival drill.

Bugging out is a stupid idea, a simple college football game causes so much traffic if something happens, you're stuck. Now a Go bag isn't a bad idea but "bugging in" will keep you alive a lot longer.

I'm good on food and water storage. But for the bag i didn't want to jam it with too much of that. I have a 3 day vacuum sealed ration brick and a couple freeze dried meals in it. and the bagged pouches equate to 2 water bottles worth. Can always add more food and water to the bag if needed.

A compact water container is something ive been looking into as you mentioned. Something that i could even put on the stove and heat water in for multipurpose.
Yeah it's more of an emergency bag. But if i ever had to just go and leave somewhere i'd be able to self sustain for a few days.

End of the world scenarios aside, in case of a local disaster event like an earthquake, power failure, tsunami etc, a bug-out bag is a good insurance policy. Even if you end up in a basketball stadium for a few days/weeks it would be good to have a few bare essentials. God knows the government will not save us if these situations are bad enough. Resources evaporate quickly when shyt hits the fan.
