SHTF Disaster Survival Gear Guide A to ZBest Bug Out Gear & Supply ManualJust look through the last 20 years of headlines. The world has seen more terrorist attacks, civil unrest, large scale riots, looting, nuclear threats, active shooter situations, major wars, and school shootings than ever before. If you think this the new normal of the 21st century, let me be the first to disagree with you strongly. These are not, but this is a new reality. We have to learn to accept it, and I have, but as the world is changing, I have decided to change a little too. What if there is an attack in your city or in mine? Will we be prepared? As a professional hiker, I have traveled the world for years. I have met many interesting people along the way. But one group of people that stood out from all the rest were five guys I met in Columbia. I was their hiking coach for a week, and we were off to a very rough terrain when one of them asked me if I could teach them about disaster preparation and wilderness survival. I was surprised to hear his question, but the concerned look on his face told me he was dead serious. That question opened my mind and eyes wide open, and I realized I was not alone. There are people who fear the same as I do. When I taught disaster survival courses, I always told people, SHTF preparation is not all about just stockpiling food, water, and securing shelter. Well, think about it, if you only need to take shelter and hide for a week, yes, then it is fine to just have food, water, and secure shelter. But what if the disaster is truly a big and longer-lasting one? Would you be okay with just those three items? Or would you need to have a few more things to survive in the long run? Ideally, disaster preparation is much more than just that; a true preparation would be where you learn a few basic survival skills, master them, practice them and become a pro at them. To be truly successful, you need to take a comprehensive approach and look at the big picture as a whole, and that is exactly what I have done in these three books. In this book, along with Henry Miller, who is a commercial flight instructor and one of the well-known expert on survival gear and their proper use, we tried to show you every step of analyzing and picking the right gear for your specific needs to prepare for that ultimate disaster survival.

SHTF Bug Out Survival Skills HandbookHow to Survive Any Disaster An SHTF preparation, disaster preparation, or any emergency preparation are not something you do in a day or a week. It is not as simple as reading a book, then buying a few cans of food, a flashlight, and some BOB bags. It is much more than that. It is a mindset where your only goal is to safeguard you and your family from any disaster that happens in your area for years to come. The shock of a larger scale disaster such as an earthquake, tornado, hurricane, or a chemical or biological attack on humanity can happen in a matter of seconds. Once any of these disasters happen, the reaction can sometimes be even fatal. But being prepared for anything comes your way can give you the peace of mind and train your brain to act instead of just being in the "shock and awe" state of mind. While your first reactions aren't necessarily wrong, a lot of factors impact your pre-written emergency plan. However, what does matter is that you act. In a post-SHTF scenario, you want to take action rather than finding out what happened. Learning what is going on around you is of secondary concern to survival. Focus on what your gut is telling you, not what the news is saying. Surviving any disaster requires well thought out planning, a good stockpile of gear and supplies, training and preparation along with a cool calm and collective mindset to know what action to take and what not to take. A wrong decision in this situation can be fatal. But even with all the planning and stockpile of gear, how you actually live through a true major scale attack or a disaster is what we talk about in this book. In this third and final book, I lay out some specific decisions you have to make along with some specific actions you will have to take to survive the disaster. When I taught survival course, the three most asked questions my students asked: What do I do right after a disaster strikes? Should I bug in or bug out? Should I stay in the city or go to a remote location? One thing to remember before you get anxious to find the answers to these questions that there is no "one size fits all" survival solution when facing a major scale natural or unnatural disaster. My goal is to prepare your mind to the degree where you can assess your own surroundings and have the ability to determine which solution is the right one for you. I give you all the options and tell you about which ones are for what situation. I also tell you the pros and cons of each, but ultimately it is your decision to pick the right ones for you. After reading this book, you will know: Answers to the three questions aboveWhat to do on the first hour of SHTFSelf-defense & security50 ways to become a 'grey man.'What is urban survivalWhat and how to do urban foraging3 must-follow threat assessments3 steps to be aware of your surroundingsHow to protect yourself from various injuriesHow to maintain high morale5 tips to dealing with PTSDHow to barter and winHow to survive a plane crashHow to survive a tornadoHow to survive a tsunamiHow to survive a nuclear attackLet's get to work.

Complete Hiking & Backpacking Guide Best Hiking Gears A to Z 86 World's Longest, Toughest, Most Scenic and Unique TrailsI was diagnosed with high blood pressure, borderline diabetes, and obesity. I lived a busy life, and I didn't have a lot of money. Taking the time to follow a strict diet and exercise routine or paying out a lot of money for a gym membership or personal training was out of the question. At first, I tried training for a marathon as my younger brother Bobby was a cross country marathon runner. But after the second day with him, I realized my body was not fit for marathon practice. Bobby's coach then told me about hiking, and since he was an avid hiker himself, he took me on two hiking trips, and I was hooked. That was 12 years ago. Fast forward to the present, I now am an experienced long-distance hiker, I traveled and hiked in over 17 countries. I no longer have diabetes or high blood pressure. I am also a certified hiking coach for people with diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity.

The Practical Bushcraft Survival GuideHow to Find Food, Water, Shelter & Fire in the Wilderness and SurviveSurvival situations often don't start off as such, like a day hike or a fishing trip. It is only when things go wrong that you are suddenly faced with life and death survival situation. Therefore, you want to plan for the unexpected. Before you set off into the woods, take the time to go through all contingencies. Disasters often don't come with advance notice, nor does it send you any early warning signs. So learning how to survive in the wilderness can truly save you and your family's life. After I started hiking, backpacking, and camping out for many years in 17 different countries, I have mastered the art of survival in the woods. Because I have done it for so long, and I will tell you, it was a 'learn as I go' process for me. But for you, it may not be that easy. Why may you ask? What if there is a severe natural or man-made disaster happens suddenly, what if a war breaks out? Would you be ready? I have been teaching hiking, camping, and backpacking for many years throughout many countries, but only within the last three years, a group of people in Columbia asked me to teach them survival tactics in the woods. That question opened my mind and eyes wide open; I knew why they had asked me to teach them, but what if similar civil and or political unrest or war breaks out in our country, how many of us would be ready? More importantly, how many of us would actually survive? I believe every one of us needs to know at least the basics of wilderness survival like what bushcraft skills you need, what bushcraft gears and supplies you will require along with how to navigate yourself in the wilderness. This way, if you ever need it, you will have the knowledge. Along with the knowledge, let's make a survival pack ready just in case. In that pack, we can put a few pieces of necessary gear and some must-have items. Once you do these two things (first gather the basic knowledge of survival, second get the emergency pack ready), I believe you will sleep better at night.
