These days it's better just to bring your long term BOB in your trunk with the way the worlds going. If that's not for you though with a 3 to 4 day trip back home on foot your get home bag should still be pretty close. Depending on what happens 3 to 4 days away from home could be a big difference depending on where you live what's there when you return. If you pack it, I say just go with a long term survival BOB outlook.
Bug Out Bag vs Get Home Bag
Hey guys,
I'm new to the prepping world. The first step that I plan on taking is building a Get Home Bag (GHB). I feel this is in my best interest because I drive 35 miles for work one way. From the research I have done, a GHB consists of enough supplies to only last a day or so, keeping the bag light and easy to carry. I believe with having such a long distance to get home (estimating at least 3-4 days to get home, based on the very hilly terrain), it would be better for me to just make my GHB as if it were a Bug Out Bag (BOB).
Anyone have any thoughts or helpful tips that might help me out on this?
