I'll meet you in the Appalachian mountains, somewhere in WV. Leave your food and water, we'll have more than enough once we get there. Just bring any means to purify water that you have, your gun, your bullets, your bow (especially need that!), and your knife.
I've got a cabin that sleeps 32, my Dad will be waiting. If you're trustworthy you're welcome to join us. I'll teach you how to live on wild game, berries, and pretty much anything you can get your hands around. I even know where a sustainable supply of yellow morels grow wild. Forest covered mountains for days, we can hold out there as long as we need to.
Sorry, I don't have any pictures of the cabin. Never thought I would want a picture of a hunting cabin.
p.s. Bring your gas, it will keep the ATVs going a bit longer, but we'll need to do without those eventually. Bring a mountain bike if you have one.edit on 9-10-2011 by Thestargateisreal because: (no reason given)

Our camp is in SE Texas. We have about 20 of us that have discussed and laid out rules of the camp and chain of command. We created our list based on skills that can be offered to the group. All extremely well armed. We have a well for water ( I know - electricity). We have a gas generator that the well can be hooked to when water is needed. We have about 2 acres here but live in a semi rural area and have discussed with friends within a 20 mile radius so that we can trade with and help each other. We have medically trained people included.
Our property is easily defended with proper visibility of incoming threats. I also have a redneck house alarm (dogs).
I've been studying natural medicine and home remedies. We have motorcycles that get 30 MPG so we can move between the groups as needed, although not very quietly. I have a trike so it also has carrying capacity. Most in the group of 20 can hunt/fish/preserve food.
Still have to stock up on gas though. This is our weak point right now. No bug out bag - intend to stay put for as long as possible.
Sorry I don't know how to do pictures.

Sorry to break it to ya, but here in Canada we're expecting the SHTF scenario as well.
Not much to eat up in the forests outta count people tend to scavenge every single edible
plant there is, so you'd end up with nothing to eat, unless of course you don't mind
living off of fish during winter while raiding farmlands during summer for vegetables and crops.
Unfortunately, unless you buy a tent, a water purifier, a magnifying glass (for starting fires),
a crossbow (or bow), a knife, fishing gear, and most importantly, REAL SEEDS,
you won't tough it out,unless your survivalist plan is to rob people of course,
but that don't end well in the long run. having a few chickens would be a blessing
since they eat insects, and there's over 15 varieties of evil flies up north that
are just deyin' to feast on your flesh. A cat to keep rodents away,
and a dog to keep wildlife away, but then again, they say dogs attract bears, add a
12 gauge somewhere on that list.
Monsanto really messed things up for us didn't it? Can't even steal a few seeds from
farmlands and grow our own food stuffs in forests anymore cause they're all terminator seeds
and don't grow back. Nice eh?

Ok, I'm sorry to slightly derail the thread for a rant, but you just pushed one of my buttons and I gotta say....
You can either be 'Over' or 'Out'. They mean different non-complimentary things and are NEVER used together!
'Over' means "I am done talking and I expect an answer"
'Out' means "I am done talking and I do NOT expect an answer"
Only one party says 'Out', and if you still want to talk after that, you will need to start a new conversation...
Again, sorry to derail, but grrrr.......
