When you see something suspicious or six guys with shotguns ....same would apply with a motor home , towing a trailer, and vans or lorry ....you just as well put a big sign on the side saying ....I have food,water,water filter , spare fuel , solar setups , medical supplies , and more baked beans than I could possibly need ....in short to stand any chance you would have to be in place early ! Any hesitation , will cost you for sure .

Secure a good BOL before hand and plan how you get there route wise and on foot , set some caches along the route.......even four wheel drives are not the answer......that’s only in your head.

100% agree with you SS.

Well equipped transport will get targeted, under equipped vehicles will get turned around and sent back to where they came from.

Every day my dog alerts me to my wife's imminent arrival home from work. He hears and can identify her little car over 2 miles away. Several minutes later even I can hear and see it from a point about a mile out.

This winter we had regular snowfall and laying snow for over three weeks. Even when temperature and conditions deter all but the most crazy ( like me and my dog) its enlightening to see tracks in the snow in even the most remote areas of our daily forages. Foot tracks and tyre tracks reach the most remote areas and do so regularly. My estimation is that any bug out caravan would be located and drawing attention within 24 hours of its arrival... thats in normal dry conditions, if wet or worse snowy, its tracks would give it away even sooner.
