Dont forget that big fancy gas guzzling SUV to carry all of that in.

What people need the most is basic camping skills and hunting skills to survive a SHTF situation.

All that mess in your list will last you a few days, especially if your talking about taking care of a large family.

So I think you should put at the very top of that list..and list it as priority first..are hunting skills, weaving and building skills, recognize natural resources to make tools, shelter,clothing, how to find water even in a desert setting, find food etc etc.

Master those skills and you wont need a single thing from that list.



Cheers!!!!

The List is for your home / retreat, They will need basics bushcraft skills if they have to abandon their home or retreat, perhaps after a year or more and supplies begin to run out. You may not need those skills at all if you are only facing normal everyday diasters such as quake, storm, flood, act of terror, ice storm, bush fire, civil unrest, food shortages, oil shortages, power outs, race riots, reccession, hurricane, tornado etc. If for example a family lived up where you do in NW US of H the Sit X they could face could be as simple as an ice storm or being snowed in for 3 months, or being trapped for longer if Yellowstone started spouting like a republican congressman.

if using those "skills" properly you might want to wash up after, and perhaps you get a cut, it would be nice to dress and clean it, and those clothes will be very stinky, be nice to wash and repair them, and i,m sure using your "skills" alday a nice hot meal would prepare you for another days use of "skills" if you read the OP n/raider was emailed and u2u ed.
a great list and i think i managed 3/4 of it have to comit to memory the rest i need to purchase S&F FOR N/RAIDER

Hi Northern Raider. That's a good list you presented.

I have a problem with two things on the list.

What is Fairy Liquid and what are Star Drops?

I'm from the deep south and have never heard of either of these.

Have traveled extensively in the US and abroad and never ran across those two products.

Please enlighten.

Thanks

Greetings and felicitations Dear Lady of the south, Tis my error as I adapted this list from an American brand name document to a British one.
Fairy Liquid is Washing Up liquid for crockery and pottery, IE the stuff to do the dishes with. Star drops is a similar foaming detergent used for general cleaning such as washing the bath out with.

Thank you kind Sir.

I appreciate your answering my questions.

Hiya mate, you might also want to include as much uht products in the list, fresh oj doesnt need to be frozen if its uht and has a mega shelf life like uht milk - just a though in case leci goes off

Cannot state how important vitamin C is during times of short supply - dont want any scurvy now do we.

[edit on 17/3/09 by cropmuncher]
Sorry didnt see vitamins on list

I cannot emphasize how critical it is to stock up on dehydrated water.

It is in extremely short supply right now although there are a few cases to be had if you look hard enough.

Liquid water is heavy and hard to transport. With dehydrated water you can store literally thousands of gallons in a small area.

To use it you just add one gallon of fresh water to the dehydrated water and Voila! you have a gallon of fresh drinking water.

I can't believe more people aren't mentioning this.

Damn good point, Stuff with long life like treated UHT milk and orange can make a great difference to the quality of your diet and its affect on your health.

Probably cos they are focusing on the campaign to get bioxygenatedhydrogen banned in public places

...this is a third line...

reply to post by Northern Raider


I don't want to be the one who looks at the fresh paint and says, "You missed a bit"...

Anti-diarrhoea tablets.

Potentially a life saver.

Impressive list Raider,but a few things to add that are cheep..

Rinsless hand sanitizer..works well and burn's white hot..can be used as a feul for stove in a pinch

suture kit..May sting a bit without lidocain..but a drop or two of Ambasol can help..

duct tape..May have been an oversight..You know the uses of it..


Plastic utensils..Every time I go to a Wawa,or other conveinent store there sitting on the counter along with salt and pepper packs beggin me to take them for free..so I do..

Hot sauce...Makes even the crappiest food stomachable

1-2 rolls of heavy mill plastic sheeting..Can be used to seal openings, roof leaks,carry large amounts of water..

^^Also can be used to set up a "clean" room to dress undress in an event of venturing out side after a NBC attach.Not 100% ,but it beets just letting any contaniments roam where they chose in your shelter,home.

1-2 large burlap bags...to use with plastic sheeting to carry water

Can openers..from simple to crank style..Just make sure you have more than one..

some type of alcohol stove..Just incase you need to use it indoors..CO2 will still be released so use sparingly,with ventilation of sorts..

Fire extinguishers..I have a few haylons I aquired,but there big money..Any ABC will do..

Nails,screws hammers, and a couple sheets of ply wood..To board up windows,doors for whatever reason..

Mouse traps..In times of strife,they will start running rampet.Can also be used as a trigger for boobie traps.

A few empty buckets..If you save all the plastic bags you get from shopping you can use it as a commode if electricity is out..I have one with what must be hundreds of walmart bags in it along with free napkins From where ever..Remember it wont flush if the juice is out..

thats all for now..I hope you dont take offence from me adding these..It would be nice if there was a centralized post with all things needed..

Great list, a few things I 've missed that I have to go shopping for.

Just to add.....

Torches
Solar cells (to run radios, charge batteries during sunlight)
Glow Sticks

Some good sensible additions there folks, Please remember this is a CONSUMABLES Group List, Not a TOOL GROUP LIST which is a seperate list entirely.

I'll start a tool list of now as a new thread.
