@Scubbie @Tfmonkey Best quote which has served me well when stockpiling a little at a time --
"Get a case if you can, and a can if you can't."
The principle applies to anything you're wanting to store away for a rainy day.
I also recommend more than one kind of silver. Junk silver is 1) immediately recognizable by the year but 2) is also easy to disguise as normal change ( and also easy to distribute among your crew for the same reason).
Maybe all raccoons are preppers?
@Scubbie Just have a way to collect, purify / filter, and store water. Multiple redundant techniques at once. Iodine, bleach / chlorine pills, boiling, evaporation (distilling), morning dew collection, rainwater, filtration.
@Scubbie I mrant to say *more than one way
@RoninGrey exactly water collection,I have a lot of springs here and locations accessible
@RoninGrey @Tfmonkey I have standard hurricane supplies and freeze dried foods some junk silver and alcohol in airplane bottles for trade,water purification and collection capabilities (will still need water maker when I get a boat for saltwater distillery)and medical supplies guns and ammo, deploable solar for marine applications and solar generators I have a plan and am working a plan that will allow me to scout out some areas and leave stuff along an escape route
