i'm actually moderately prepared for social meltdown or apocalypse, and zombie/velociraptor invasion.
- big fancy tree fort deep in the woods, but within 50mi of home. can't see it unless you know it's there, and you'd never find it unless you were lost.
- based on a zombie apocalypse scenario with minimal gear, i'd have to probably go with:
- semi-auto .22 rifle with low-velocity (sub-supersonic) ammo, 4x scope.
- 9mm pistol
- alcohol stove
- E-tool
- obligatory machete
- hand-crank radio
- LED flashlights/batteries (with strobe, of course)
- tactical gear/camos
- MREs for a week
- 1st aid kit
- firestarter
- water purification tabs and water bottle with purifier straw.
- 50' of climbing rope w/ basic climbing rig
- 2 blondes (preferably twins)
my strategy is to be able to move quick if needed and carry everything I need on me, scavenge/hunt what's needed. after the 1st year or so, things should settle down and re-stabilize a bit, and i can probably move back to the city and have some kind of fortified shelter with nifty things like a bed.
