If you had 90 to leave — what would you take?”For most people, the answer is panic, guesswork, and leaving something critical behind.
In reality, evacuation happens fast. Fire, unrest, chemical leaks — you don’t get a week to prepare. It’s often today… or now.
That’s why a Go-Bag — also called a Bug-Out Bag — is your lifeline. It’s a compact kit designed to keep you alive, mobile, and functional for up to 72 hours if you need to leave home suddenly.
This isn’t wilderness fantasy gear. It’s practical, mission-focused equipment to:
Stabilize you
Protect you
Give you options until you reach safety
Mindset First
Your Go-Bag is a decision you make before you’re forced to act. It’s not fear — it’s control. You’re accepting the possibility of rapid movement and choosing to face it prepared, not surprised.
Choosing the Right Bag
Skip the flashy tactical look. You want something that blends in — comfortable to carry for hours, but unremarkable to onlookers. Around 40–60L forces you to prioritize the essentials without overpacking.
The 8 Core Categories
Every serious Go-Bag covers these pillars:
Security
Shelter
Fire & Warmth
Water
Food
Medical & Hygiene
Signal & Communication
Navigation & Documentation
Each category has specific, field-tested items that can make or break your ability to move under stress — and more importantly, we teach how to use them.
💡 Instructor’s Note:Packing your Go-Bag isn’t the hard part — knowing how to stage it, maintain it, and deploy it under pressure is where most people fail.
