BOB walking.

[Scythe13]

Okay, we all know bugging out is a last resort.

We pretty much all have BOBs, BOLs, various routes, and the alike.

One of the reasons we have quite a few Dartmoor trips is to test gear, skills, systems, and most importantly...ourselves.

Let's look at a quick scenario. You need to get out of dodge. You have your BOB packed and ready. The roads are blocked.

You grab your bag (question 1), how much does it weigh?

You head out to your BOL (question 2), how far away is it?

You leave your house at Midday (question 3), how long have you 'budgetted' in time to get to your BOL?

While walking you start to think about how often you have tested your gear and how easy/hard it is to make that journey (question 4) how many times have you carried your BOB the distance to get to your BOL?
