If something bad happens this city will burn within 48 hours, all cities within a week. There will be a mass exodus into the suburbs and surrounding areas. Without having a hardened target with large security force staying in place will not be an option for long if you are even remotely close to a city.

As it stands my plan is to grab my go bag at the first sign of trouble and get out before panic sets in. I won't even bother trying to drive, I will go on foot. I will follow the train tracks from my city up to the mountains, this will keep me off roads and largely away from people. I will only move at night until I get out of population centers which I can do in 48 hours. I will be out of the city in 20 minutes of leaving. I will try to find an unoccupied secluded cabin or dwelling up in the mountains. There are a lot of such places and chances are the owners will never make it to them, if they arrived I would leave if they asked me to do so. There is a ski resort way up on the mountain with a large cabin at the very top, it would be very difficult to get to for most people. This is one place I have in mind.

This is just a starting plan to get me to a safe place away from immediate danger. I think the ultimate goal would be to join a group.

This is my very loose plan in the event of a societal collapse.

Have you thought about this? What will you do?

You’ll likely outlive most the horde, but you won’t likely survive. Too much reliance on an unknown you may not even make it to, or be challenged getting there or there. Then you won’t have supplies or a self reliant food system to sustain you. Some teenager with a .22 squirrel gun will pick you off as you scrounge for food knowing if he didn’t you’ll eventually end up a threat to the, because you aren’t prepared.

Get out now, get set up. Load a basement with food and supplies. Find good neighbors that will work with you to defend your neighborhood. Get animals that eat grass (not bagged food). Have a water source that requires no electricity.

When I was in the service as soon as I experienced real violence I understood that soldiers were being used for something very wrong. I realized that there was almost no justification for what I was seeing and doing. The way I mentally coped with what I was feeling was by thinking of war as nothing more than a deadly game. I thought my chances of survival weren't great but I would play the game to the best of my ability and see what happens. I suspect if SHTF I would simply play the game again and see how long I could survive.

I was good at the game too, but there is danger in thinking of it only as a game, no second chance. I want the odds stacked soo far in my favor it’s not even funny.

A sad reality for me is that I will not be able to get to any of the people I love as they are all across the country.
