@ JP0212 - I know where I am headed for my Bug Out location. It is on land that no one goes on so I am going to pick a flat area near a water source (probably a pond) within lots of woods and start stockpiling!
I see that some have "tactical vests" listed.. What about tactical body armor vests or helmets? Just curious, I mean, if we are gonna go "all out" survival..
And what about dogs?
I have a dane and mastiff that can tote as well, has anyone ever gone as far as harnessing them up to carry loads? We also have a chihuahua, she would be for emergency food rations only..
I plan to stay put until the initial panic is over then head to the farm if I need to.
I been thinking about taking flying lessons, if I ever do and recieve my liscense, I'll have to remember that one.. lolHere is my plan for the pooch. Never know when buggin out might include a drop in option...

This discussion has come up on here before, and I still can't agree with general bugging out. I'm pretty much a "bug in" guy if for no other reason people don't consider what it would really be like. You'd pretty much better be at or real close to the place you want to hole up in, as travel will likely be impossible. For one thing: fuel. Quick Trip and Flying J won't be open or have gas. It will be the Road Warrior on steroids. Roads will be constantly blocked by those trying to ambush others for gas (in cans in their bug out vehicle, or the vehicle's tank itself). The open road will be the 2nd most dangerous place behind the inner city.
And I've brought up before the same thing seurto did above: if you're planning on doing it, you'd better have a place of your own or agreed-to place with a person who already lives there (providing you can get there). Farmers aren't going to be too compassionate about "city slickers" heading out their way in droves, shooting their cattle, etc. Same goes for those in the mountains, or people in the rural areas in general. I'm pretty sure they won't roll out the welcome wagon for all of the urbanites flooding into their property, killing all of the game, raiding gardens, etc. Any unfamiliar faces will be a threat. And every rural resident I know is well armed.
I'm staying home if I can help it.
