Campfire Cooking for Preppers There's nothing like a good campfire
meal when you're "roughing it". It's a great way to
enjoy the great outdoors. But campfire cooking for
preppers takes on a whole new meaning. After TEOTWAWKI
campfire gets deadly serious as it is a necessary
survival skill that you must learn. There are two

Water Storage for Preppers One of the basic
principles of prepping is the
survival rule of
threes. Under extreme conditions, you can only live:
Three Minutes without Oxygen
Three Hours without Shelter
Three Days without Water
Three Weeks without Food
Water is life. A person can only survive a few days
without water. The easy availability of clean drinking water right now
often makes us complacent about our water storage. However, you cannot
assume that the current water infrastructure will be intact after a
major disaster or other emergency.

First Aid Kits for Preppers
Whether you are a Prepper or not,
having a basic first aid kit assembled and within reach
is a good idea. A Preppers First Aid Kit can run the
gamut from the extreme to just the basics. You will need
one in your Every Day Carry Bag and for your IFAK,
Individual First Aid Kit. Our first aid kit at home
looks more like a mobile trauma hospital.
A well stocked first aid kit for preppers is a critical part of any
survival or preparedness setup. How large your first aid kit needs to be
is largely dependent on your individual situation, and whether the kit
will be carried, tucked away in a vehicle, or in a closet at home.

What if the Preppers are right?
Public opinion is largely shaped by the media
in all formats including news, cinema and television shows. It should come
as no surprise that everyone doesn't necessarily form an opinion on every
subject. Nor should you be shocked to hear that most opinions are uninformed. We
can all give countless examples of this. Most Americans are sheeple, unable to
think for themselves. They are content to follow and I believe many are too lazy
to do the minimal research required to have an informed opinion. Their reliance
on government or media sources for information makes them easily susceptible to
manipulation. It's simply easier to be a sheeple.

Ducks are the New Chickens! Raising Ducks for
Preppers Have you heard? Ducks
are the new chickens!
For Preppers keeping chickens has
become all the rage. Whether it’s wanting to know where their food is
coming from, a desire to be more self-sufficient or merely wanting to go
back to the basics, chicken coops are popping up in suburban backyards
of families all across the country.
But might ducks actually be
the better choice? Here are 10 reasons I prefer raising ducks to raising
chickens.

The Day After SHTF
It was just another
day, breakfast, work, kids soccer practice ....
Consider your own lives. How many of you are on
auto-pilot? We all settle into routines, that is human nature. We are
wired to make certain assumptions about our day to day life. To do
otherwise would be overwhelming to our brains.
Then ... the collapse event occurs ... TEOTWAWKI - SHTF -
DOOMSDAY - ARMAGEDDON ... whatever label you choose. As preppers we face
many threats. Pick your poison
