I have a large truck, it’s capabilities are extensive. I can haul people and gear with the full size cab and large bed, I can tow or even winch my way out (or others) of trouble. The powerful V8, 6 inch lift and large tires have gotten me through all sorts of mud, deep snow …

I know a guy who entered into the prep world maybe 6 years ago, and boy did he ever. He absorbed every bit of information from all of the alt news websites and prep blogs, ran up his credit cards over the course of a year buying up stacks of supplies and guns and knew …

Tactical preps are ultra cool, always good to have some extra kit laying around because…”better to have and not need than need and not have.” Right? Or maybe time and money could be spent elsewhere, after all very few of us have money to throw around at whatever our tactical heart desires. What follows are …

This past weekend my wife and I organized our storage / preparendess area. We did this together so that we would both know where items of note where, instead of me just taking on the task and her having to dig for something in my absence. We have various storage items sorted by category on …

I finally got around to opening the gear box from SHTFClub.com and was pleasantly surprised at the contents contained within. Remember, this is a subscription program and there are three tiers: Basic Plan: $19.99/mo Pro Plan: $49.99 Elite Plan: $89.99 Originally I was a bit skeptical because after all, why would I pay to …

On the surface things seem to be moving along rather swimmingly. The story line goes something like: improving economy / Dow trends / more jobs / less National Debt / and just a general feeling that things are going better, whatever that means. I for one can appreciate that gasoline is not $4/gallon but …

What are you preparing for and how do you prioritize accordingly? There are some very real threats out but all of us are limited on time and resources. Even the independently wealthy prepper with all the time and money in the world could not prepare for and mitigate risk for every potential disaster which exists …

I sit and type this with a cool mountain breeze coming through the open door. Only the sound of the keys clicking and birds chirping, along with the wind pushing the trees around ever so gently. If I take a moment to glance up from the keyboard, as far as the eye can see and …

I recently spent a few days out in the backcountry wilderness living out of my bag, miles away from the nearest town and long out of cell phone range. It was myself and my dog hiking a few miles a day at over 10,000 feet in elevation, getting in touch with nature and evaluating some …

Home is where the heart is and for most of us where our preparedness stash is. Should some localized or regional disaster (or worse) take place I’d like to think we would feel better about addressing that situation surrounded by what is familiar to us (read: having loads of preps and self sustaining infrastructure in …

By: JM @ Sole Labz Smart prepper’s guide to choosing the best tactical boots Navy Seals have a saying: “There are two ways of doing things, the right way, and again”. Smart preppers know, however, that SHTF scenarios leave no room for do-overs. Your top sidekick in all-hell-broke-loose scenarios is a good pair of tactical …

It’s been a while since I’ve posted but thought to come back strong with some 2016 predictions. Let me know what you think! 1- There will be no economic collapse. The stock market will not crash, at least not in 2016. The funny thing is that I once commented on a very popular blog which …

Full Disclosure, I’m typing this out while Journey is playing in the background: Don’t Stop Believing. Had to get that out of the way for the old heads in the room but it’s all good. “Strangers….waiting…” So tonight I had the joy of cleaning all of the guns I shot this past weekend, I emphasize …

First we need to define what remote is. Am I attempting to describe a place in the middle of the Alaskan tundra which requires an aircraft to gain access to? No I’m not quite that hardcore, however this isn’t your cabin posted up 1/2 mile off of the go kart / candy shops / ma …

By Philip. In 2012, the National Geographic Channel has partnered with Kelton Research and conducted a survey which gauged Americans’ preparedness level and mindset for the potential end of the world scenario. Out of the 1,007 men and women who answered the survey, it revealed that 85 percent of the nation is unprepared and only …
