Prepping is all about good planning and preparation. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who go ahead and prepare, without making a plan. Or, their plan is rather ambiguous, without taking into consideration the different problems created by different disasters. To those people, there’s just one generic disaster and that should cover everything. However, disasters aren’t that cooperative. Granted, there are a lot of similarities between different types of disasters, and especially in the aftermath of those disasters, but that doesn’t make them all the same. One thing that is fairly consistent in just about any kind of disasters...

There’s a lot of talk about fighting techniques, training and weapons across the prepping and survival community. We all have an expectation that we’ll need to fight to protect home and family, when things fall apart and the SHTF. But I’ve always thought the best way to win a fight is to avoid it all together. You see, every time you get into any sort of fight, you’re taking a chance with your life. I don’t care how good you are, there’s somebody better out there. You’re much better off not letting them find you, than ending up in a...

Here in America, guns are very much a part of our culture. The Second Amendment guarantees us the right to "keep and bear arms;" and while progressive liberals are working overtime to try and find ways to deny us that right, they have been losing the battle in most parts of the country.

The ideological gap between blue (Democrat) states and red (Republican) states is growing wider every election, allowing the liberal Democrats to make some headway in pushing their gun control agenda in the states where they have firm control;...

Any kind of scenario that puts you into the wilderness is likely going to include some type of injury. Hopefully, the injury is fairly minor and can be treated without the need for surgery or a medical professional. Depending on what kind of situation you are dealing with, that is probably not going to be an immediate option. Knowing even basic first aid can save the life of someone you love or even...

Traveling and living in the wild is dangerous. There are many things which can easily cause injury and nothing conveniently at hand to protect us. We can’t expect to find paved trails or staircases up mountainsides. Extreme care must be taken to avoid injury or injury will find us. While the seriousness of a small injury is amplified out in the wild, a broken bone can be almost catastrophic. There are stories from the Old West of some of the early mountain men who were forced by circumstances to tend their own injuries. Some even had to deal with broken...
