Just the short list off the top of my head:

I have roughly 4-5 years worth nonperishable food ranging from cases of #10 cans of Mountain House freeze-dried to canned butter and cheese to spices. Also two Big Berkey water filters with extra filters and 55 gal. water bbls. Of course the usual assortment of firearms and ammo (over 88,000 rounds of ammo in various cal. from 9x18 to 7.62x54R and 8mm Mauser). ProElite HP crossbow (135 lb draw) for silent hunting/defense. First aid and med kits for basic health to emergency surgury, and various meds. Then the add ons like Berkey solar chargers, Free Play chargers, Free Play radios and flashlights, and rechargeable batteries.

Oh yeah, and I do preserve wealth with Silver and Gold bullion as well as have "junk silver" pre-1964 coin for trade.


Interesting read (fiction) that demonstrates we are never really "ready" for any contingency. Still a good story:

A bugout cabin helps
