Super happy you mentioned hats and bug nets! They’re absolutely necessary on the East Coast. Deer flies and black flies are unbelievably active right now.
I don't use them a ton, but when I need to do precision work that needs my focused attention outside and the bugs are nuts, I def pull them out.
You got an amazing amount SHTF in that lil bag. 👍🏼. Like a magic treat. Lol
@@PenntuckytheCrag It's like a clown car for prepping items. ;)
Excellent video. Great point about being conditioned and used to carrying things. You’re right, things happen all the time. People should be prepared for a broad range of scenarios. Great list of preps. Be well. - Colin
I think you'd done a video on that topic a few months ago yourself now that I'm thinking about it. It was you and your wife hiking with packs on if I recall. Great recent video on your garden work, by the way. It's cool seeing everyone's plans start t come together!
@@PraxisPrepper Yes, I talked about the importance of walking with bags. Thank you. I feel like things are coming together. Have an awesome evening.
I've always played the mental game of "What would I do if there was an EMP?" while I'm out driving, and everybody's vehicles suddenly stopped working? I do like your GHB, and I am starting my own, that will go in my trunk. Also, I agree... I NEVER have a round in the chamber. Have seen WAY too many misfires and injuries.
I caught that irrigator on CP’s channel as well :)
Excellent info! I can resonate with your story about the value of carrying the EDC bag/access to your medical preps. Recently we were off grid and a family member presented with an acute infection. We actually had the recommended antibiotic which spared us all from packing out to seek medical attention. Improvement was seen within 48 hours and we finished the trip with no further issues.
I don't take antibiotics out with me because I always like to keep them cool and temp-stable to increase their lifespan. Because I was visiting my prepper friend, he OF COURSE had some of his own and he was kind enough to let me borrow them for the trip back just in case my boy needed them (which he did not). It's nice having friends who are prepared!
I'm glad your story turned out fine too.
Thanks Praxis. Great and informative
Ooh, a list! 😍🤩 Thank you for all this info. I can't wait to make these improvements to my own bag!
I hope you find some things that will be useful. Everyone's bag should be unique to them, so not everything in my bag makes sense for everyone else, but I'm sure there's plenty of crossover. Best luck!
yes getting used to carrying weight it is so important
I saw CP’s videos with dr Tam, lots of useful information.
My EDC/GHB is the OLOK psk (One Litre, One Kilo), much less everyday stuff than your kit but I have it with/near me all the time when not at home.
Dr. Tam is a WEALTH of knowledge. It was great getting to hear his thoughts on CP's vid. It's nice hearing that you're pretty consistent with your bag use too. It's a great safety net having at least some tools around when they might be needed. Best luck to you!
Word. Get home bag has been my focus since the beginning. I just need water. Lots of water this time of year.
In Arizona, water & hats for sure!
Get a couple water filters as well. Like a lifestraw.easy to carry in a small purse.
I like keeping a Delorme topo map book for my state in my car. They are available for every state, so I have a bunch of them. I anticipate the cars abd phones being not usable and having to find alternative routes. Anytime I am going to be more than 10 or 15 miles from home I make sure the appropriate book is in my car. I added one of the new low cost Harbor Freight clones of the Leaterhman Wave and the also low cost UST survival knives Walmart sells in the camping goods seciton. I like the saw blade on it. Much better than some other knife back saws. A big 10-4 on a few bottles of water (and a filter straw. Again Walmart has some decent energy bars to nibble on in the camping section. Bic lighters for sure. Drink a shot glass of vinegar and the insects that like sucking blood will stay far away 10 hours at least.
Nice tips!
WWIII by August... I'm sticking close to home. Excellent video, though ✌
The march forward on that front seems both unstoppable and completely off everyone's radar. IDK about when the tipping point happens, but it feels like any day is as likely as any other at this point.
I was just thinking about that this morning. All these millionaires and billionaires building bunkers, stocking up.
Hhmmm....global "flip"? Comet /asteroid impact? No, those would be global events being underground might not help. A bunker in Hawaii would be useless if it's under water.
But a nuclear war. Hhhmmm...
Fantastic video and list! I’ll be adding some things I hadn’t thought of. Thank you!
You're welcome. Best luck!
I rarely leave home. However having hidden emergency cache buried in places easy access for me to get to from my home to the one place I go are in place is SHTF.
Caches are a good idea.
Love your videos! You are so thoughtful! One day can you give some tips on how to find the most comfortable backpack? Although I am only 39, I hurt my back years ago and am a slender lady, it doesn't take much for my back to start aching.
In Ontario Canada here and the flies have been getting me when I am at the beach, hate them!!!
I made a video like that for Tac9er a few years ago, but I can't find it now. I'll do a video on that next for you. I wanted to talk a bit more about hiking shoes etc. as well. So I can do them in the same video. I do have a lot of advice on the topic of comfortable backpacks. The pack I show in this video actually isn't the most comfortable one I own at all.
@@PraxisPrepper thank you! Oh and I didnt even think of footwear! Awesome!
Your video is done. th-cam.com/video/Whgm_gf6MgY/w-d-xo.html
@@PraxisPrepper Amazing Praxis! Thank you ❤️
I have a EDC bag it's a bit lacking but I have basics like water covered I can't tell you how much money I have saved by bringing water with me.
Yeah, bringing stuff saves a lot of money too.
Good topic. Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure. I hope you found some of it useful. :)
I certainly need to add a wee bit more to my EDC bag. A sun hat for sure. I do keep these in the boot(trunk) of my car. The distance from the car park to the hospital I work in is only 1 km but I still carry the kit in with me. I've been to briefs about "bad" folk attacking the hospital so I have my cat bleed kit handy at all times. Thanks again for a great video. We're now off to buy some fish for the boys and their new fish tank! Have a great weekend
My boy started a fish tank a couple of years ago too. We started with some small fish we caught from our brook and a goldfish from the store. They all did great for a year or so, but now it's just the goldfish.
As Brad from FFS says, have a little bit of fun, too. There was much excitement on the journey home from the shop. Have a great day.
Great video on bags overall!
There is a time and place for the bug out bag, but a get home basic is much more practical.
Even condensed mine down from a full tactical pack to a sling shoulder bag.
It personally love the personalization aspect of it. It's like a little life-support pod for each of us. :)
Non powered portable bidet. Also works as water storage and vessel to wash wounds.
I JUST bought one of those for my upcoming camping trip. Out bidet is one of the biggest things that my boy and I miss when we camp, so we're totally GLAMPING now with our hand held portable bidet! ;)
I like your dual use idea too!
Thanks for the great info!!
You're welcome.
Your bag will prevent "the walk of shame" lol
This is great. I use my GHB all the time. Not for huge emergencies yet thank goodness. More for things like ..I'm out and need water or a quick bite to tide me over, or more usually it's my children who are hungry. Or someone has hurt themselves, here let me help clean you up. I even have stuff for my dog because he's often with me. I'm pretty organised by nature, its just a matter of making sure things in my GHB are always restocked.
It's a nice feeling having stuff on hand when needed. I think of mine as my "dad bag" for sure.
I got chills when you mentioned chin injury 🤢
It's weird how those feeling stick even if it's been a long while. I guess that's our brains at work focusing us to remember and be careful next time.
Cash and a knife 😂, I have a bunch of stuff in my wallet, I gave up on the bag concept, if you have cash, you can get what you need on the go.
That's funny, I forgot to mention the cash I keep in my bag. I agree. Cash is a good thing to have... although if you're super cheap like me, you won't spend it on anything even if you need it. I could be super thirsty and have no water, but cash on hand and I'd be like, "I'll just wait until I get home and drink then." ;)
@PraxisPrepper In a emergency, you're going to spend what you need, worry later. I carry water wherever I go, it's hot here all the time, if I'm intentionally hiking, I'll carry a bag with some basics, there will be more liquid than anything else.
Awesome video! I have had my EDC-BAG with me for almost 10 years and it has made life a lot easier 🤘Great tip about down loading maps on your phone. Thanks Praxis!
I love those maps.me phone maps. They even have hiking trails on there.
Okay for a get home but a year or two after a stopping of industrial society a head Net won’t be near enough. You need a quality bug jacket and light weight gloves. The trousers better be thick as well.
Hiking with a pack and carrying your own water helps with overall fitness. You need a three litre hydration pack so you can sip on the go. For a long bug out you need two packs as it takes four hours for tablets to sterilize water
What's your thinking with the bugs getting more intense after industrial society stops? I know in some areas, people spray, but out here in the woods, I don't think anything like that is going on. There's a huge difference between going outside at my house vs going out in a park near the towns. So if the towns are spraying and cutting down on their bugs, they don't seem to be doing it everywhere.
@@PraxisPrepper well where we live is brutal in June for bugs. No towns, major roads, industry. We stay in Ottawa in June which is infamous for its bugs. We find them easily tolerable so, yes, a world without cars would in a few years be like our place
@@HuplesCat Oh, okay, I got you. So what you were saying was that people would have to acclimate themselves to a world like what you and I already are living in. ;)
A video about bug tricks would probably be a good one for you and I to do. I bet we both have some useful techniques that we could share with people who aren't used to our world of horrors.
@@PraxisPrepper Be fun to do. The reliance on sprays is vital but avoiding using them is as well. The silent dead world filled with waste chemicals and machine noise is a bit different from ours in our forests.
I dunno about switching out that ibuprofen for Tylenol, my friend. Ibuprofen is an anti inflammatory, Tylenol has no such properties. That's you though.
You know I agree w/ your carrying the method of self protection you have. It's small but it'll stop what you need to stop.
Good longer video. Really enjoyed it. Loved the list.
That's a good point on the anti inflamatory benefit. Maybe I just need to cycle it more.
We have small plastic pods of sterile saline solution, designed for eye irrigation but can also be used for wound flushing. Much better then an irrigator as you might not have the water to fill it or have time to filter the water.
Also, over here in the UK, carrying lock picks is frowned upon by the law as in their view it shows intent to commit a burglary 😞
I've thought about carrying a sterile solution for that reason. I've always felt that whatever I carried along those lines would be so small that I'd end up needing to find water anyhow to do a full flush. But I'm still on the fence on that question. Carrying extra liquid takes up space and has weight, but it also COULD come in really handy someday.
@@PraxisPrepper Not saying don't carry the water (as that would be dumb 🙂), but if you had just finished the water or the bottle broke as you took a tumble and then needed a eye / wound flush - belts and braces 🙂
I have 2 in my FAK and that should be enough to tackle most things
@@Lee_Proffit It's a very good point you make... especially with me and my GLASS water bottle I carry.
@@PraxisPrepper I was thinking more of your habit for falling over 🙂
@@Lee_Proffit LOL that too! ;)
I’m out here in Oklahoma in we have some of the biggest In worst buges in the world 😂😂
I haven't been to your state yet, but I'll take your word for it. The one bug that I'm glad that we DON'T have up here in my area is scorpions. I don't think I'd ever want to go outside if I knew those were crawling around everywhere.
@@PraxisPrepper ikr 😂😂
Exactly right. My son had a dirt bike wreck and burned the inside of his leg pretty bad. I had some burn dressings, and the gel gave him instant relief. He couldn’t believe how much it helped instantly. I told him that pop’s not as crazy as he thought. 🤷♂️😂
Burn gel is a good idea. I might add that myself. Thx for sharing!
How much does your pack weigh?
I don't get too caught up in exact weights, so I don't know. I'd say maybe 30-35 lbs or so.
Just curious...Why did you put in the thumbnail, "You need this before June 15?"
People tend to ignore videos with "vanilla" titles like "Useful Items to Have in a Backpack". My general preference for making videos would be to make descriptive titles, but I've done side-by-side tests with the same video with two different titles and 10X more people watch videos if the title card is like the one I used for this video. I try to have the cards at least have some sort of connection to the video though. For this title, I was thinking it's like a "call to action" goal. I released this video on the 5th. So I figured a title like this is a call to action to get this done in the next 10 days. I often will swap out the title card for something more descriptive after a week or two to make them more descriptive for the long-haul while the video lives out the rest of its life.
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain and answer my question. That definitely makes sense to me now. I enjoy your videos and appreciate all your time, hard work and effort in creating videos that are eductional for us preppers and homesteaders. Peace, health and God bless to you and your family.
@@Lily-has-wings You're very welcome. There are few things in life more worth doing than helping others... and at the moment, I can't think of a single one of those things. It's my pleasure to share what I've learned from others and by experiment.
How much does your bag weigh???
IDK. Maybe 30-35 lbs?
What’s happening on June 15, 2024?
Nothing particularly specific as far as I'm aware. The only significance as it relates to this video is that it's a date 10 days following the release of the video. 10 days seemed like a good timeline goal.
@@PraxisPrepper gotcha. Thanks for clearing that up. Wondering if I had missed something. 😀
@@britthenesy6492 No, I just know that calls to action tend to get people's attention more and be more motivating when aa specific timeframe is suggested. Ten days from the date of release seemed as good a "deadline" date as any so I went with it. Good luck in your own preparedness work. It's a nice lifestyle. :)
? App link for maps ?? Mapsme ?
I went to create the link, but it was coming up weird on my laptop. Search "maps.me" on your phone's app store and I'm sure it'll come up. Let me know if it doesn't.
Walking Boots.
I realized that I forgot to include that when I was editing this video. I ALMOST went and shot it to splice in, but figured I'd do that in a follow up video. The hiking aspect alone I felt was maybe worth its own video. Good catch on your part. I also forgot to mention having cash in one's pack too.
