Bug Out Locations.

[Kobalt]

if there is enforcers near where i live i will conduct attacks at diferent times even by myself if i have to, i will us tactics similar to in the movie the patriot where they do a hit and run, or basically sneak up on the enemy, shoot one and retreat in to the woods.

No offense man.
But I would leave you at the camp until you get a tad bit older.

Your better off studying maps. Cooking cleaning and gathering water. I know it sounds shitty, but your to young to risk death. You are the life blood of our country and if You where in my group you would not have a say. until you proved yourself otherwise. & eventually you would get your chance.

It basically depends on your maturity. I was and am being raised to take care of myself. So as soon as I hit 18, Its out of the house and into the army.

trust me im not babyfied like most of America, im not ur average kid, idont go to the mall or play video games nor do i have a phone,since i was little my dad has always brought me hunting and shooting with him, i guess thats why i was bullied alot when i was younger cause i wasnt like other kids and i was small, most kids parents didnt let me around there house cause they thought i was "dangerous" and "trouble". but people who bullied me found out karma is a bitch. People dont know the anger i hold, and if people come to take my food or hurt my family i am not afraid to fight till the death. @TheSpiritofAdventure soon as im 18 im joining the Marines if the U.S. is still in one piece.

Yes we know your story. Its not about how hard ass you are. We are still young ens and getting shot in the face at 16 is no way to get laid.

[backwoodsboy]

yea i know what you mean, and i dont think im a hard ass, and no thats not any way of getting laid. Maybe i should prep condoms? lol

[Kobalt]

My advice, you like me are probably a virgin. Keep it that way till you get married. then you can keep the condom supply to minimum.

spirit, you've certainly earned my respect. you're a damn good kid (don't take the term "kid" the wrong way, you're more of a man than 99.9% of others your age and I hope you continue down the right path)

that being said, being shot in the face at 18 "for your country" is no better than being shot in the face at 16 for your retreat group. if the war is truly justified then I'd say go for it. hell, you may even see me out there on the field if it's truly justified. all I'm saying is I'd re-think your "18 = army" mindset. by all means, do whatever you feel that you need to do, but I couldn't let that one go without weighing in on it. you shouldn't join the military unless you're willing to stand, fight, and risk your life for the people behind the war. do you think "Operation Iranian Freedom" is really justified, or worth risking your life for? if you do think so, then seriously man, do what you do, more power to you. but just remember those words, RULES, and ideas that are written in the CONUS, and ask yourself whether fighting an illegal war in the name of a small handful of powerful people is really the right way to go. you show far too much potential to become cannon fodder. If you're going to join the military, do it to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, not to expand the Anglo-American Empire.

I see what you are saying and I respect that. But I have no plans to run out on the battlefield at 18. I'm gonna do the reserves to pay for my collage, then when I gain some rank, go active duty for a little bit. Besides I don't have a huge problem with the people who give me food, money, and a good life. My true home is in heaven. And If I get shot I go home to the Spirit in the sky.

Back to topic...

[sledge]

That's not the St. Johns is it Colombo?  The river bluffs are throwing me.  Where ever it is looks like it would work pretty well.  A canoe or kayak would make a good escape vehicle too if needed. 

[Colombo]

This section is pretty much a glorified drainage canal connected to the st johns, about 12 mile run mostly natural but thru some dense swampy crap too. The sides have old dredge spoils stacked about 10-15 foot high. Those pics were taken from a small entrenchment I dug, see below.

[Mississippi]

Thats some beautiful property you have there!

Aaaahhh...one of my few cool moments. I think I'll bask in it while it lasts.

That's some funny shit...



Hey, wait a minute...

[NOLA556]

reaver why'd you delete all those great pics? I hope it's not paranoia, bro, nobody can find your spot just from those pictures. as long as you didn't take them with a phone. I heard that smart-phone pics can be pinpointed even after being uploaded on the interwebz. some kind of embedded coding or something. (i don't know nothing about that shit, but  i stay away from the fancy phones anyway)

anyway, I'm going to be at my BOL from tomorrow to Thursday. I'll try to get a few good landscape shots to post up.

Not paranoid bro. Just re arranged my Photobucket and they where part of the move.

[JohnyMac]

Reaver,
sorry you deleted your pics I would have liked to of seen them.

Our BOL is at 1,400 ft (Mountain is 1,700 ft) and there is only 2 ways off (road) or on the mountain. I have a home steading farmer and his family that live across our dirt road. He also owns one of the Pub's in town which is 4 or 5 miles away- Population around 2,000 people. A small city is about 25 miles away though.

On the mountain there is about a dozen year round residents and in the summer add another dozen or so. My brother and I have chatted with each houses residents on the mountain and they are all in tune with the economy and what is coming but one gentleman. He is a professor at the small city mentioned above.

We have a 1,400 sq ft log cabin that my brother, 2 framers and I built in the fall of 2010. It has no electric other then a bank of marine batteries poered by a big ass solar pannel; although in the winter we do run 3, 100' extension cord from the farmer's barn to our cabin to run the ceiling fan in the great room. It has no running water. We heat with a big ass Jotul wood stove and cook with a propane gas range that does not run on electric. It operates with pilot lights (Boy was that hard to find). I ran 900 ft of 1" flexable pipe from a spring / well up the mountain behind the farmers house. It runs to a spigot on the side of the house with a Y valve. A hose is hooked up to one of the outlets which snakes off to a runoff area and is on all of the time so the spigot does not freeze. The other part of the Y valve we use for filling 5 gallon buckets for: Toilet bowls and drinking/ cooking water.

The property is about 35 acres with a closed quarry, creek, an apple & pear orchard and a vegetable garden that we are tripleing next year.

I will check out my photo folder and post some pictures if anyone is interested.

JohnyMac,

A significant portion of that "small" city's population is headed straight for you and yours, buddy. Once SHTF, I hope you have some sort of excellent defensive plan involving your neighbors, because if it sounds like you have as few people in that community as you say you do, I can see you being quickly overrun.

Just out of curiosity (and I know that Mtnredneck is in a similar position), would you guys mind starting a topic and sharing what your plans are? You seem to be literally the small, laid-back mountain community vs. the horde, something of great interest to me.

[JohnyMac]

 

Oh yeah Rah we are aware of that. We have a few surprises for the horde.  [URL=http://www.smileyvault.co

Mountain, I will start a discussion titled Rural BOL Security and start the ball rolling.

Okay, back on topic, guys. 

[Ghost]

Some of the local area I have to work with.








Scenic, huh.

[sledge]

Beautiful.  Man, I've got to move up north.  Looks cold though.  What is it, about 50 degrees?
