Re: Get back home bag
This is a really good app: https://www.backcountrynavigator.com/
What's great about it is you can download copies of maps of your area directly to the device so you need no network access. There's a variety of maps you can choose from, regular street maps, satellite imagery or topology and some combined types. It takes a while to download the maps. I've used it fishing many timesRules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.

Re: Get back home bag
if you are in urban setting a xooter scooter is a must have... they are pretty fast and very portable/ easily stored in trunk.
can also go with a goped if you want a gas powered scooter.
im in an urban setting so my loadout is all about weight - case in point, locked keys in car the other day, live 2 miles from park entrance, had to carry my 2 yr old home (she refused to walk was nap time), it's mostly uphill - glad i was in shape!
GHB
- lifeboat food (look it up, does not make you thirsty/ high cal count per size),
- water bottle with filter built in,
- poncho, tarp, cordage
- glock w endo tacitical brace (excellent compact carbine/ pistol capbility), 4 mags+ammo
*** bonus 22LR conversion slide + mags and ammo for glock
- extra socks, tshirt, track pants
- toliet paper roll (flattened)
- knife w/ fire capability (fixed blade)
- pepper spray (less lethal option)
- bug spray
- baseball hat with clip ligt + headlamp + flashlight (all AAA) w/ extra batt in waterproof bag
- burner phone w/ sim card + charging cords + power bank
- alcohol-based hand sanitizer (can also be used to help stoke a fire)
- lightweight but study plastic utensils (camping grade) - actually handy for every day
- ear pro plugs (easy to have)

Re: Get back home bag
This is where I miss the threads from PA2A, because I had detailed pictures and breakdowns of most of my preps such as a "GHB."
Knowing I'll probably be bored at work tonight, I'll post what's in mine. For now, part of the strategy of where I bought my house was being able to "get home" from work within a day's hike..., and I can. I have made the hike using my GHB to test it out.
One other point about GHB is to not confuse it with a "bug out bag." The GHB should be light and have only the items needed to get you home within 24 hours. I suggest tailoring it for where you're likely to have to "get home" from, which for most people, is work.Life has a melody. Not great, not terrible.

Re: Get back home bag
I got two backpacks from the above posted sale - the Blackhawk 3 Day Assault pack and the Predator Hydration pack.
Both are nice quality. No regrets, but the hydration pack is smaller than I expected. It should make a good Get Home Bag though.
I've been watching Youtube vids. Good lord - there's so many of them. Everyone's a professional prepper. LOL
I got out a piece of paper and started jotting down items that I think would be good to have.I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!
