Your bug out plan - From City.

Yup, right to eating people is very constructive.



I would have to agree that if your not already there and you think you will make it up to the mountains, good luck. The roads will be closed down. Either from traffic or from the mountain people blocking them. I think the idea of heading out to the plains is pretty good. I think most people will go west so if you have to leave going east might be a good idea.

If something horrible happened I think I would try to stay where I am and group up with my neighbors.

Who said anything about being constructive?

Ah yes you got me. Lets get into a full "digression" I am not even sure that is a word!

If we are going there, then their is a list, well not a list but a few people I would love to smoke out of their homes. Always playing their music way to loud.

my plan is to stay right here in an urban area where i know how to fight and survive . i don't think the the mountain people will be to receptive to a bunch of city folk invading any more than ill be receptive to the suburb people trying to con down town . basically the suburb folks have it the worst .

My house in the mountains has everything I need for many years...I just need to get there so I keep a backpack of essentials in my car to walk out if necessary. As far as anybody attempting to come on my land......from each family member!

My problem is wildfires...I can't survive them in which case my family takes back country to my sister's ranch on the western slope. I have several carb vehicles including 4x4s.

We keep our camper on property belonging to my wifes family. Perfect place to bug out. RV's, campers, shop, generators, well. One day I mentioned what a good place it was if something happened. Someone else that regularly uses the place said you better get here before me. Needing clarification he told me that he plans on cutting down trees as he drives in making the roads impassable after he enters. WTF. It would suck to leave your house just to find roads impassable.

Leave early or not at all maybe.

Why does everyone have to bug out in a SHTF situation? Wouldn't it be wise to learn from the civil unrest in the mid east and contemplate how best to secure your neighborhood? I think that figuring out who out of your bug out buddies has the most defensible and most easily maintained neighborhood might be a good option. Just food for thought that not everything happens overnight, and a few properly placed vehicles and a few properly placed shots should help to convince an unruly mob to mosey on by.

Then again I've got no military or third world experience.

Are you going to displace your buddy's neighbors from his defensible neighborhood so you can bunker down there?

I'm not saying that you should displace your neighbors. The incident will most likely evict some of them by the time you get there and the sleeping arrangements at your buddies house may get changed up a bit.

You guys all need to read this book! Especially if you live in the City. It's the best $20 you'll ever spend, trust me! All of my friends have read it and read it over and over!
