innawoods.net is annoying, lacks some useful things, others take too much space. Also it's nice to see that things are in order and people still don't take any change of clothes with them. Gonna be one smelly bunch soon!
Hell yeah bitch I'm ready. though chances are that instead of bugging out I'd bug in and secure up a neighbourhood with neighbours, who are nicely weaponised. I have wood and coal stocked for two winters, lots of food stored away.
IF I were to get out of here, it would be via car. Which is a station wagon and has enough place in it to carry approximately one metric crapton of resources.
But ignoring those two options and assuming I _WOULD_ go innawoods alone, just on feet, because shit hits the fan in a spectacular way, my kid and girl die, the pic has my loadout.
Couple things:
1) the lighters are in fact BICs, not zippos. And I have a stack of them, not just 4. Very tradable good in a time of crisis.
2) fishing kit is way smaller, just some line, hooks and sinkers.
3) Crossbow is in fact a bow. Mission Craze 35-70 lbs hunting bow. I'm in process of getting a gun permit, but fortunately in my country you can get any bows with no limits.
4) Assume that all standard iodine/bandages/etc etc are in the medicine bag. Again, tiny things taking too much space separately.
5) There was no saw, so just add Bahco Folding Saw there somewhere.
6) Light is a hand cranked one
7) Phone has solar charger, and thus: GPS, compass, possible emergency calls, and I tend to stock up PDFs that can be useful in survival situations (atlases of herbs for example), and some light reading to keep myself from going mad.
8) Camera. Yeah, it's heavy, but I'd just take it no matter what. And the possibility of winning Pulitzer Prize after submitting photos from war-torn country counts. Also, it doubles as a damn fine binoculars even when the battery runs out.
Yes, I know all this shit is heavy. OTOH it's light enough to take with my if my life depended on it.
