Episode 39: Backyard Bug-out Gear Test

Hello and welcome to Failure to Prepare! Your source for all things paranoid!Show more

What is the purpose of this video you might ask? I wanted to put my get home bag/bug-out bag, and it’s attached gear to the test. It’s always a good idea to have faith in your gear, and that it will take care of you when you need it most. You can’t pick your weather, or the time of day you might need to use your get home/bug out bag. So I picked last night (Friday), clear skies, full moon illumination (which means colder temps as opposed to overcast skies), setup temp was approximately 43 degrees, dropping down to overnight/next morning temps of approximately 25 degrees. So it was a pretty cold night overall in my 3 season tent.

I will give a description of the major gear, and if you are interested, links to this gear, I will be changing up my tent though, to something a little more subdued, that doesn’t draw so much attention or look like a lighthouse beacon when you turn a light on inside it. I will probably have 4-5 follow-on videos, from this one overnighter, which will be released weekly following this video, I apologize in advance about the lighting and sound during these videos. But either way, hopefully, you will find them useful and or helpful.
