Episode 53 – 72 hour kit
In past episodes we’ve discussed car kits and home emergency kits. This week we will talk about 72 Hour kits / get out of dodge (GOOD) / Bug Out Bag /Evacuation kits. Unlike many who identify themselves as survivalists this is NOT a battle kit, this is a “I have to evacuate NOW due to a chemical spill and I need supplies for 3 days” kit.
I shamelessly stole the list that I use in this episode from about.com and modified it a bit to make it fit my ideas a bit better. Below the podcast I will include some other links as well as some things I thought to add recently. Let me know if you think of anything else.

Things I forgot…
- Self defense items (firearm, knife, pepper spray)
- Small portable hard drive / thumb drive with backed up computer information.
- Large contractor sized garbage bags (55 gal), these can be used for so many things.
Stuff to buy (hopefully)…
