How far to Navigate to your BOL?
This is sort-of navigation related in terms of understanding how far you will have to navigate to get from your day-to-day home to your Bug Out Location.

RE: How far to Navigate to your BOL?
i live in the country with a good geo location from most problem, but just in case i have a few scatter points with stuff there. i also have a close bol that is with in walking distance if need be, and if that fails plans for a 200miler out of the way.
failing to prepare is preparing to fail and perfect planing pevents poor perfomance always stick in my head.

Bugging in but still looking to bug out if I can find somewhere suitable.
That bird house was a legitimate expense.

Good philosophy. It is one I follow too.

Live but put away a bit for just in case.

RE: How far to Navigate to your BOL?
Where I live on the south coast it is so ridiculously over populated that finding a suitable BOL is quite a challenge. Bug-in is my preference but I don't think it is practical as, a) my house and garden are not secure enough to withstand a determined onslaught with too dodgy boundaries and too much window area, and b) my location is too close to a major city from which visitors could be expected.
I'm hoping to move home shortly and these concerns are going to play an important part of the selection.

Brian,

I think that is a wise decision. Even if nothing happens your quality of life will improve anyway.

Myself I'm looking for a place not far from where I am now with a bit of land.

Finding land without a whopping great bag of cash on hand is like finding hen's teeth down here, but my location search includes renting adjacent land. Still a challenge, but possible, and when TSHTF who will be looking at contract law and land use restrictions anyway.

The original owner of the land presumably, they may well want to re-negociate the deal, possibly by taking 50% of what you produce on the land or something. That's unfortunate but it still leaves you with 50% more than it will leave someone without any land (rented or otherwise).
