We posted on our Facebook page:

Charlen Carignan asked below: “Okay, I have a question. The whole ‘bug out’ scenario would be necessary in many situations, but where in the heck is everybody going? Can’t tell me that every prepper has 50 acres in Montana to go to. My husband isn’t well, so bugging in is more of a necessity. I also wonder that unless you have an off-road vehicle, you are going to run out of gas on the highway and be at the mercy of crazies. Interested on others ideas…..”
Some comments we received:

Comment #1: That is a super question. What I would say from my perspective is…Do as I and others are. Find an area you think you finally want to be in and join a local preppers group (most are statewide). Make friends with them, meet them, camp and show your skills and if you can…buy into a piece of property that you and they feel can start over. I have a network across the US and if I get caught traveling to one coast or the other I have friends that I can stay with who have nice prepper places and my skills will be given for a place to stay or rest!

Comment #2: You do not need 50 acres. There are thousands of acres of National forest. some of it possibly close to you. Go scout out a remote ravine or dense area of woods. as for your Husband…. you need a plan to get him mobile. Sadly it is those less able and infirm that will suffer badly. Standing your ground in a bug in situation will last as long as no one is aware you are there but very quickly the looters will find you. Then you become a statistic. You do not need to go far. But you do need to go. Where are you located, roughly?

Comment #3: I will stay home till things settle. Then I plan on Urban survival and count on Human civility of my neighbors family and friends. I would start up a colony out in the open. I don’t plan on hoarding anything. Whats mine is yours. Nothing I have is worth losing a life.

Comment #4: The family has 5 acres in West Virginia at the head of a holler. Fed by a stream and surrounded by mountains on three sides. A small cabin with a wood stove and wild Turkey and deer aplenty. There hard pert will be knowing when to leave so we don’t get stuck on the road. I’m 300 miles away.

Comment #5: There will be lots, maybe 2/3 or even more who go nowhere – just stay home. that might be ok, depends on the disaster. If you stay home, maintain a low profile. If you have more than your neighbors, share some, but don’t reveal how much you have. Always appear to be afraid you’re going to run out. If you can, store most of your stuff off site, so if someone searches your place they don’t find much.
