in my opinion. a get home bag is different than a bug out bag. from what i have seen on different forums and youtube videos, a get home bag is ususally a smaller version of your bug out bag. it should have the necessary items to last you a day. it should be small enough to have in your car, truck, bike, transportation device. but with enough food and water and tools to help you get through the day.
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?
