Which Bug-Out Region Do You Live In?The feasibility of any bug out plan depends a lot on your starting point.

Obviously, some regions of the country have more to offer than others in terms of places to go. But every part of the Lower 48 has its share of potential bug out locations. The map below shows eight major regions as I've divided them for the purposes of my book: Bug Out: The Complete Plan for Escaping a Catastrophic Disaster Before It's Too Late.




There is some crossover between the regions shown here, but the illustrator has done a pretty good job of placing the demarcation lines approximately the way I have divided the bug out locations described in the book. Note the page numbers that will correspond to the beginning of each regional chapter. The first four chapters are on general information and planning, including gear and methods of transportation.

My reasoning for these divisions is that these specific regions offer distinct variations in terrain, climate and plant and animal communities. Again, there is some crossover in some areas, but anyone familiar with all these areas of the U.S. will see how survival skills and gear can be different from one region to the next. Natural hazards including everything from weather to dangerous wildlife vary according to these regions, as do resources such as the availability or lack or water, edible plants and game animals. It is this variation that made working on this book such an interesting project for me over the past several months, not to mention the real time I've spent out there backpacking, canoeing and kayaking in all of these regions at various times during the past 25 years. Writing each chapter made me reminiscence about past trips and long to load up a canoe or backpack and go again.

My home base is in the Gulf Coast region, and I stay here because of family ties as well as my love of the water - both the rivers and the Gulf itself. I'm lucky to have a large number of bug out options close by because I live in one of the least populated states east of the Mississippi River. Those of us living in small towns or rural areas are the least likely to need to bug out to begin with, but each region on the above map has its share of densely populated cities where the residents would do well to have a working knowledge of where to go if the SHTF and they have to get out. Keep in mind that the vast majority of the populations of those cities are not going to have this knowledge and most will not even try to leave, but will instead wait for outside help that may or may not come. Out here in the small towns and rural areas of America, most of us would pull together in such a situation and help each other out, as has been proven time and time again when the big Gulf hurricanes have hit the nearby coast. In the aftermath of Katrina, the media covered the chaos and violence going down in New Orleans, while people along the even harder hit Mississippi Coast quietly rolled up their sleeves and went to work digging out of the rubble and rebuilding.

So it's obvious that where you live has a lot to do with how you should formulate your survival plans and can be a big factor in your chances of success or at least the degree of difficulty you would face. But one thing we are blessed with here in the U.S. is plenty of undeveloped and uninhabited lands. It may not seem so when you're driving past mile after mile of strip malls and suburban sprawl, but compared to so many other countries in the world there is a lot of unused land here - both public and private. Have you explored all the potential bug out locations near you? What if you travel a lot for your job or for pleasure? Do you know where the big uninhabited areas are in other regions you frequent? If not, you should think about it. I hope that this kind of information detailed in my new book will be of use not only for bug out planning, but to encourage readers to get out and explore the great wild places available their own region and other parts of the country.

You can learn how to build a quinzee snow shelter in 5 easy steps. This ultimate resource on how to build a winter survival shelter in the woods will teach you how to choose a location, how to size your quinzee snow shelter for camping, the steps to properly shape your quinzee and have consistent thickness, and how to carve out the inside.



Download the quinzee checklist for a handy reference to all the steps of how to build a quinzee snow shelter for winter camping!

How to build a Quinzee Snow Shelter to increase your bushcraft winter camping skills in the cold–You’re stuck outdoors in the snow. Can you Survive?

Download the quinzee checklist for a handy reference to all the steps of how to build a quinzee snow shelter for winter camping!

Do you know what a quinzee is? In any winter survival situation, there are two important things to remember. The first is that your own body heat is one of your most important assets. The second is that snow is a great insulator. A quinzee snow shelter is a great way to take advantage of both whether you are in an actual cold-weather survival scenario or just practicing your bushcraft and winter camping skills.
Are you prepared for a winter emergency?
In a winter survival scenario, your focus should be on heat, necessities like shelter and water, and boosting your chances of being found quickly. A quinzee snow shelter and heat will be your main immediate needs!
Shelter and your own body heat can make a huge difference for your winter survival. Learn to build a quinzee snow shelter in the woods to make sure you are protected from the elements until you are found. You can also use a heat source in your shelter when needed like a candle.
You can also build a quinzee snow shelter just for fun in your yard in the winter – it is a great activity, especially with kids, and will give you practice should you ever need a winter survival shelter in an emergency or that camping trip the family is looking forward to.
Here is also an article about how to find shelter in a natural TREE WELL: https://willowhavenoutdoor.com/pine-...er-video-post/
Before you Begin: Start with a Survival “Can-Do” Mindset

In any emergency, having and maintaining control is important. You must have a positive survival mindset. With snow and sticks, you can build a winter survival shelter to protect yourself and loved ones until help can arrive. Stay calm and assess your location. Start with a visualization of how you will build your quinzee snow shelter. Your positive mindset will impact the outcome of your situation.
How To Build a Quinzee Snow Shelter Step #1: Location First “Look up”


The first step in how to build a shelter in the woods is to assess your location. When assessing location, there are hazards to watch out for – such as widowmakers, wind drops and snaps that can happen when a tree is dead or almost dead. You don’t want to build your quinzee in any areas where a tree snap may happen or large branches might drop. It is important to consider hazards and safety, as you don’t want to build an awesome quinzee in a bad location. Doing so would make it an unsafe shelter, and safety is paramount in the wilderness.
You should choose an area that is nice and flat. It is good if the location is a bit downhill to block the predominant wind. It’s great to have a nice canopy overhead as long as it is healthy and there are no drop hazards and plenty of shade is optimal due to melting that can happen and affect the integrity of the structure.
Pro Tips

• Watch out for hazards
• Choose a nice and flat area
• Block the predominant wind

Step #2: Sizing your quinzee snow shelter


After you have decided on the location of your quinzee winter survival shelter, the next step is to figure out the circumference or size of the quinzee. It should be a little bigger than you are, so you have the ability to lay down and sleep in it. Ideally, you want to create a round dome shape so when you carve it out, you have the same distance all around to give consistency to the walls for strength and durability.
Start in the center of where you will build your quinzee and mark the center point with a stick. If you have cord or rope with you, you can tie it to the stick and walk a circle all the way around the stick.
If you don’t have cord or rope, you’ll need to pace out your shape. To pace it out, face each direction and walk approximately a pace and a half from your center point in each direction.(depending on size you need for you or your party) After you have your four directions paced out, you can connect the outer points of them by walking it to create a full circle. This gives you a blueprint for the size of the snow mound you’ll create for your quinzee snow shelter in your camping area
Pro Tips

• Mark the center point
• If you have cord, tie it to the center point and walk a circle
• If you don’t have cord, pace out directions and connect the outer points for your circle

Step #3: Shaping your quinzee

After you have paced out the blueprint for your quinzee snow shelter, you need to make a big mound of snow within that blueprint. A great tip for saving time and effort is to put a bunch of gear in a mound shape in the middle of the blueprint and cover it with a tarp before you begin to pile on the snow. This way, you don’t actually have to fill that part with snow, which will make the digging it out phase much faster!.
After you have your covered gear mound in the center, you’ll begin the process of throwing up snow against the mound. You want to make sure to actually throw it, so compression happens and the snow crystals fuse together. Create staging areas around the bottom of the mound, then throw snow on top of that staging area and build it up. Make sure you build out the sides and pack them down to have a really solid foundation.
You can use a snow shovel to throw snow on your quinzee if you have one. This is a great method for the backyard! However, if you’re out in the woods, backpacking in the snow, you may not have one. In this case, you can use your snowshoes to scoop and throw snow to build your quinzee.

When building a quinzee snow shelter, it is important to have a dome shape and to take any small random sticks out of the snow as you go when throwing the snow on,you will be deliberately adding sticks later in porcupine phase. You don’t want them to harden in there, as it makes it harder to dig out when you get to that phase and they may also cause splintering – which could affect the integrity of your winter survival shelter.
Pro Tips

• A shaped, covered gear pile in the center before adding snow saves time
• Remember to throw the snow for compression
• Use a snowshoe if you don’t have a shovel
• Remember the importance of the dome shape!

Most common mistake building a winter shelter (creating a peak is dangerous)


ATTENTION:
The dome shape is important, because you don’t want a peak on top. A peak creates extra weight on top, which can be hazardous. We want everything in alignment. The quinzee snow shelter should be the same thickness all around, including the top.
Download the quinzee checklist for a handy reference to all the steps!

While building your quinzee shelter in the woods, it is also important to maintain your body temperature. You want to make sure you don’t start to sweat – building a quinzee can be quite a job! If you start to feel hot, first try taking off your hat, as most of your heat is trapped by your head, neck and core. If you’re still too hot, take off your gloves – that’s another are where you can cool down. You want to follow the No Sweat principle. If you sweat and then get in the quinzee for the night in the cold, it is going to be a very uncomfortable, even painful, night. Wet sweat and cold don’t mix very well! Maintain your body temperature, so your time in the quinzee snow shelter after it is built will be comfortable.
After you have plenty of compacted snow in a dome shape – 6-10 feet in diameter and 5-7 feet tall – it is time to gather 12 – 18 inch sticks for the ‘porcupine’ stage of building.
Pro Tips

• Make sure you maintain your body temperature and follow the No Sweat principle
• Don’t have a peak on top of your quinzee – remember the dome shape.

A great article about building a quinzee snow shelter with kids can be found HERE.
Step #4: The ‘Porcupine’ Phase

In this step of how to build a quinzee snow shelter in the woods, we are going to gather about 50 sticks that are 12 – 18 inches in length. They should all be uniform in length. This is the porcupine stage, which is to set up the quinzee for even carving on the inside. Once you have your sticks, insert them straight and fully into the quinzee along the bottom, about a foot apart, until just the tip of the stick remains sticking out. Then insert them all around the quinzee about a foot up from the first row, and continue until the entire quinzee is covered. The stick points sticking out resemble a porcupine.
The sticks give you what you need from the inside, because when you are inside carving, you continue until you hit the edge of a stick, then you don’t carve in that spot any further. Once the sticks are inserted into the quinzee, it is time to take a break before carving. You need to wait about an hour or so, depending on the temperature, to let the quinzee shelter sinter. Sintering is where the ice crystals come together with pressure, time and weight. This gives the quinzee snow shelter strength, which is very important!
Once you’ve given your quinzee some time to sinter, then you’ll move to the carving stage.
Pro Tips

• Gather about 50 sticks, uniform in length
• Sticks should be about 12 – 18 inches long
• Insert sticks about a foot apart, all over the quinzee
• Wait before carving to allow the snow shelter to sinter

How to Build a Quinzee Hut Snow Shelter Step #5: Carving out your Interior

Lastly, you will need to carve out the inside of your quinzee snow shelter. Make sure that when you’re digging in, you also immediately start digging up until you hit the first stick, so you keep the integrity of the walls throughout the whole quinzee snow shelter. You’ll need to carve up and in, so you don’t have a lot of weight above as you carve forward, as that creates a danger of collapse.
You can dig from multiple sections or directions – if you have more than one person digging,depending on the size we have 4 opening for this big quinzee here. I have each person take a direction and meet in the middle! The breakthrough is an exciting event as well.
Download the quinzee checklist for a handy reference to all the steps !

This will make the digging portion go quicker. As you’re carving, make sure to smooth over the entire inside so there are no bumps. Any bumps or stalactites that are hanging down can melt from your body heat, drip and create ice in the bottom.
When carving, you can use small shovels, pots, snowshoes, or anything that will help you dig the snow out from the interior of your quinzee snow shelter. Once you get to your tarp-covered pile in the center – the one that you had used in the beginning and covered with the snow, you can pull the tarp up and get your backpacks or gear out of there. This eliminated a lot of other digging that you would have had to do if you didn’t use that method of putting them in ahead of time. Remember to be careful of the sticks and not go past them when digging!
Once you have dug out the inside to the point of all the sticks you placed, you’re done digging! Make sure that there is a cold sink that dips down a little more than the rest of the floor right by the door, so the cold can sink down and be in that area.
Another important stage at the end of building your quinzee snow shelter in the woods is to keep a hole or a couple small holes through the roof for oxygen exchange. If it is snowing, you want to periodically check these and keep them clear. When you are breathing, you are breathing out carbon dioxide, and you don’t want that building up in a small space like your quinzee interior.
The other thing you may like to have is a candle or a couple candles inside. Each candle gives off the equivalent heat that a person’s body would give off. If you’re inside your quinzee alone, having two candles in there with you would create the body heat of two extra people! However, candles give off carbon monoxide as waste, so again, you’ll want to be sure that you have clear holes for oxygen exchange for safety.
You can also keep the entrance open for air, but if it is windy, you’re going to want to make sure to have a number of different holes for oxygen. This is a key factor to keep in mind, as it is very important to have good oxygen exchange when you’re sleeping in a quinzee.
If you carved from a number of different directions, you can close up and block all the doors except for your main door that has the cold sink dug out. You can pile up some snow inside for a platform to sleep on across from the cold sink, too. Make sure to put something – boughs, a sleeping bag, blankets – between your body and the snow platform, so your body heat doesn’t melt it and create wetness during the night!
Pro Tips

• Remember to dig up and in to prevent collapse
• If you hit a stick when carving, stop carving in that spot
• You can dig up and in from multiple directions
• Smooth the inside so there are no bumps
• Important! Remember to create small holes for oxygen exchange!

Next Steps: Mastering Your Winter Survival Skills

So now you have the knowledge to build a quinzee snow shelter and not need a tent for any winter camping. You can build a quinzee with as little as 4 inches of snow on the ground. When the wind is whipping outside and it is super cold, you’ll find that with 1-3 people or a few candles, the temperature difference inside the quinzee snow shelter is amazing! You can be comfortable sleeping in it. It also works as a soundproof room – you could scream in there and people can’t hear you outside. This is because snow is one of the best insulators!
We encourage you to practice building a quinzee snow shelter in your own yard, so you know how to do it before you are ever in a situation where you need to do it. It’s a great activity to do with kids – they love it!

(Natural News) According to experts, by 2050 the world could have more people than food. They also warned that a worldwide food crisis “is imminent and approaching fast.”
The leading solution suggested by Professor Julian Cribb and other experts in the field is a global switch to vegetarianism, but this alternative comes with its own challenges. Experts think that 10 billion is the max cutoff point for the population and supporting more people than that is almost impossible.
This means that even if everyone agrees to avoid eating meat, issues related to soil, climate, land and access should still be considered.
If you are worried about a food shortage, protect your family by starting useful prepping practices like home gardening and food preservation. (h/t to AskAPrepper.com)
Dwindling food access is a bigger concern than running out of food. Several factors contribute to food access, and getting food from the farm to the table is a complicated process that has already seen some issues in recent years.
Before SHTF, protect yourself against a food shortage with the practices detailed below:
Foraging

Foraging refers to the act of gathering food from the wilderness. This is a great option if you are looking for a way to supplement your diet without spending money.
Foraging food gives you access to a seasonal “supermarket” beyond your homestead. It’s also a great way to save money or make ends meet.
If you plan to forage, here are some things to keep in mind:

• Sign up for lessons or self-study to learn the difference between poisonous plants and edible plants.
• Only take what you will eat.
• Ask permission before foraging on private property.
• Leave fruits and berries for other foragers.
• Never forage for rare species.

If you’re serious about foraging, invest in these essential tools:

• Reference books and field guides so you can check and double-check if a plant is safe to eat.
• Cutting tools like a pair of quality scissors, a pocket knife or mushroom knife or a small digging trowel.
• Baskets to store your harvest.
• Protective clothing like long-sleeved shirts, hiking pants, a wide-brimmed hat and walking shoes to protect against ticks.

What to forage
There are many edible plants to forage and with some knowledge and experience, you can gather a substantial amount of food for personal use or for selling.
However, what you forage will depend on where you live.
Blackberries and raspberries
Blackberries and raspberries can be found growing throughout the world. Blackberries are most abundant in autumn and are easy to identify.
Pick berries and freeze them as a quick treat or preserve them to use throughout the year. Berries can also be used for jams or pies.
Chestnuts
There are many wild nuts to forage and one of the most popular is the sweet chestnut.
Sweet chestnuts can be used to make pesto. You can also add it to holiday stuffing.
Chestnuts can also be roasted and enjoyed on their own. They can be found throughout the United States.
Dandelion
Dandelions are considered an annoying weed by most homeowners, but when SHTF, this edible plant is a godsend.
Dandelion is easy to identify and can be safely consumed after washing thoroughly. You can eat dandelion raw or use it in your cooking.
While all parts of the plant are edible, they are a little bitter.
Elderberries and elderflowers
Forage for elderberries and elderflowers from late May to early July.
Elderflowers are often used to make cordial, a delicious, liqueur-like beverage. The flowers can also be used to make jams, sorbet, or yogurt.
Nettles
Stinging nettles are a wild green and they are easy to identify, but you will need a pair of thick gloves.
Stinging nettle grows abundantly throughout North America and the plant thrives in damp soil.
The plant is often harvested for food and it can grow up to six feet tall in some locations. Look for stinging nettles growing along the roadside in dense patches.
Wild garlic
You can find wild garlic along the banks of streams and rivers since it thrives in damp ground. Wild garlic is a versatile ingredient and can be foraged from late March onwards.
When foraging for wild garlic, look out for its strong, pungent aroma that is reminiscent of garlic.
Be careful when foraging for wild garlic in Canada and the United States. Lily of the valley is a wild garlic look-a-like, but the flowers, leaves and fruits of the lily of the valley plant are poisonous.
Start a home garden

Compared to foraging, home gardening is a more reliable way of protecting yourself against a food shortage. Whether you live on a homestead in the countryside or in a small apartment in the city, you can grow your own food outdoors or indoors. (Related: Home gardening tips: How to grow onions from seed.)
Growing crops indoors
If you live in an apartment, you can still grow vegetables indoors and in a small space. Use pots and planters to grow your favorite herbs and vegetables.
Here are some foods you can grow indoors:

• Avocados
• Beets
• Carrots
• Garlic
• Herbs
• Leafy greens like arugula, kale, lettuce and spinach
• Mandarin oranges
• Microgreens
• Potatoes
• Radishes
• Scallions
• Tomatoes

You will need basic tools and supplies for your indoor garden. Not all these things are mandatory, but they can help increase your chance of success.

• Air circulation – Circulating the air is essential for healthy plant growth.
• Containers – Use containers of the right size for plants you want to grow.
• Fertilizer – Feeding the soil will help feed the plants.
• Humidity – Depending on the plant, you may need to purchase something that allows you to control and monitor the humidity of the growing area.
• Light – Provide natural sunlight for your plants by using large windows and storing pots in the right location. You can also use a grow light instead.
• Potting mix – A good potting mix will help your plants grow well.
• Temperature control – This allows you to monitor and control the temperature.
• Water – Most plants need to be watered regularly to grow.

Growing food in an outdoor or indoor garden could save your life during a food shortage so start planting today.
Food preservation

If you have a garden, learning how to preserve can help make the excess food you grow last longer.
Learning to safely store food and preserve it long-term will help you overcome a food crisis. If things go well, you can also earn extra money with this skill.
You can store and maintain foods using a root cellar or cold storage. Store crops like beets, carrots and garlic in a root cellar.
You can also preserve food by drying or dehydrating it. You can either get a food dehydrator or use alternative methods like an oven or sun drying.
Another option is to learn canning. Invest in a professional canner and other canning equipment. If you want to save money, use a method called a water bath.
In water bath canning, you need a large stock pot to seal jars and preserve the contents. Canning food can make it last for weeks, months and even years.
Raise livestock

The meat industry relies on processing and transportation to get food to consumers. But issues in production will take their toll and can hinder your ability to access meat and dairy.
If you are willing to put in the work, you can also raise livestock on your homestead. This practice is ideal if you also want to eat eggs, dairy and meat with vegetables from your garden.
Depending on where you live, you can raise large animals like cows or smaller ones like chickens or small animals on your property.
Chickens will provide you with eggs and poultry. Meanwhile, cows can give both milk and meat.
Before you raise livestock, check the laws in your state to ensure that you can house, raise and slaughter animals on your homestead.
If a food shortage hits the U.S., life will be challenging for preppers and non-preppers alike.
Find ways to become more self-sufficient so you can provide for your family when SHTF.
