Packing a Realistic Bug Out Bag

New article about things you need to think about when packing bug out bag:

#1. Bugging out into the wild:
This, for most people, is simply not a viable option.  Think about it logically.  A disaster has happened that was bad enough to force you out of your home (be it wildfire, floods, hurricanes, etc.).  That would mean it would force tens/hundreds of thousands of other people to evacuate as well.  Public or private land will be a no-go as other people will try to go there as well (and rest assured the owners of the land will be looking for people trying this).  Hotels, shelters, rest stops, campsites will either be full, too crowded or too dangerous.  Unless you own some decent land that's excluded enough not to draw attention or a place that's well hidden and not many people know about, it might be best to just meet up at a friend’s/families house.  Remember:  This isn't some macho "live off the land", this is your life you’re risking.
