Welcome to The Escape Bag Blueprint…
This blueprint is a step-by-step guide to help you put together an Escape Bag that could save your life one day.
The fact is, a crisis can occur at any moment and those of us who prepare and plan ahead are the ones who are going to survive.
It doesn’t matter if you find yourself trapped in a snowstorm, lost in the mountains or in the middle of a riot or terrorist attack.
There are specific items in this Escape Bag to help you come out alive from each of these situations.
In other words, you never want to end up like the folks below, who weren’t prepared for the situation they encountered and sadly, that lack of preparation ended one of their lives…
“Trapped alone in a snowstorm in the Sierra Nevada mountains, Paula Lane made a tearful video to say goodbye to her 11-year-old twin boys, because she thought she was not going to make it out alive.
Lane, 46, had gone four-wheeling with boyfriend Roderick Clifton, 44, on Nov. 29 when his Jeep became caught in a snowdrift off State Route 88 in Hope Valley, Calif., near Lake Tahoe. After one night together in the Jeep during a blizzard, Clifton decided to venture into the storm the next day to find help, and never returned. His body was found six days after the ordeal began.
Left alone without water, blankets, cold weather gear, or cell phone reception for four days after Clifton left the Jeep, Lane recorded a video goodbye to her sons.
The Nevada woman made it out alive… She was rescued by her brother and his friend while shivering in the hollow of a tree off the highway.”
Unfortunately, these types of incidents occur far too often in the U.S.
With proper planning, including putting together an Escape Bag, numerous lives could have been, and will be saved, which is why everyone ought to have an Escape Bag.
However, before I jump right into the contents of the Escape Bag, I first want to cover every day carry gear.
You see, your everyday carry gear is the gear you have on you anytime you leave the house. This gear is an important part of surviving a crisis and it augments some of the gear in your Escape Bag.
