Get Your Prepper Survival Pack Ready For That Day

By Edna Booker


Since prepper is a name that means to prepare for something, this person must do tings that ensure they are ready for that something. That something could be a foreign invasion or a flood that sends them out of their home. It could be other weather related disasters and it could be something that the government is doing that has everyone in the area scared. These people usually prepare, first, a Prepper Survival Pack.

This kit is often called a bug out bag. That means that anything you have in this pack is all you are leaving your home with. It also means that carefully planned bag or pack must have essentials and nothing that can not be used. Each person must carry their own bag.

The ingredients for this bag are crucial. Most experts in the field and participants of the survival movement state that a supply of life saving items should last for at least three days. This should be enough time to, if possible, find a safe place for more permanent arraignments. A look at these items will help you understand what is involved in this preparation.

Water for three days means about three gallons. You are not going to have the supplies for a shower every day, so forget it. If you find a stream or river, that will suffice, but you need water to drink, carefully, and to cook. The importance of staying hydrated, especially if you are going to be doing some running is just as critical as when you were at home. This will probably be the heaviest item you will have in this kit.

Food for three days can get heavy if you are packing cans. There are foods that are light weight, such as dehydrated meals called MRE or Meals Ready to Eat. These are used by our military personnel. Larger quantities of these can be purchased, often at a discount, in many survival or regular grocery stores. They simply need water and some heat and they are good to go.

The prepper will also need something that can serve as a roof and, possibly, a wall or two. This can be accomplished with a tent or a tarp that can be thrown over a limb or fence post. A sleeping bag for everyone will also help you get some sleep in a cold environment. Sleep is something that you need especially if you are going to be on the move most of the time.

One of the most important elements of this bag will be a first aid kit. This exercise is all about survival, so you need things that will help keep you healthy and, as necessary, germ free. A good disinfectant, a lot of bandages and sanitary wipes will go a long way. Consult with a medical professional for additional items and be sure to pack all regular medication any member of your party normally takes.

This kit, bag or pack must contain all of the things that are going to keep you alive for a few days. Everything in it is crucial and valuable. The life you save, if only for a few days, is your own and, indirectly, your family, friends or others you cared enough about to take along. Think carefully about everything and throw in a paperback or two, just in case.
