Alaskan Sourdough"What" is the Number one "Rule" reference SHTF....???
What single factor is the most important in any SHTF event......???
ALASKA is a "HARD COUNTRY for OLDMEN". (But if you live it wide'ass open, balls'to the wall, the pedal floored, full throttle, it is a delightful place, to finally just sit-back and savor those memories while sipping Tequila).

Use Enough GunPlenty of guns and ammo is the basic starter.

NormanConquestTrue that, although WAY too many people know that I reload, have guns, stockpile, etc. ad nauseum. That just comes from living in a small community where your kids go to school. Not so small anymore but the memories are still there for the now-grown kids.
Never mistake motion for action.

Stay Calm, make plans.
Find out what kind of SHTF event it is.
With out proper knowledge how does one know how to react.
How long do you see it lasting.
How much of the country is effected.
Are we talking a total collapse of society or just a localized event.

Please explain how being thousands of miles from a SHTF event would allow for any relevant complication....???

Jerry FiskAnn, you made me laugh.
Pdog, yep. Figure it out plan from there with what you have. Act quick, then go slow.

Your situation does not apply to every one here.
What if the balloon goes up on your once a year trip to town. Your in your favorite store just about to buy your yearly supplies.
Then poof it happens.

Yep, that sure would suck. See a bit of that already in rural America. No butter in the local stores for the last three weeks. No 1/2 and half either. Annoying but I kind of look at this as a practice exercise for things to come. Sooner than later.

NormanConquestYes indeed. + that is why I have always had a great admiration for the Amish communities.
Never mistake motion for action.

Aspen Hill AdventuresRandy, even the Amish aren't what they used to be. Large community here where I live, good people, but they stock up at walmart too.
It is really hard to be completely self sufficient- even if you are a member of a large Amish family of laborers.

NormanConquestAnn, I'm really sorry to hear that, just one more bubble of admiration burst. I remember vividly in the late 50s + early 60s when visiting my grandparents in Ohio, that they were totally self-sufficient. Although I would not be willing to live in their theocratic society, I still gave them great admiration.
