Some things to think about before you put a bug out bag together!

First things being first, we need to understand what the function of a bug out bag is.  
Simply put, a bug out bag is an emergency evacuation bag. It should be designed with that in mind.  In addition to all the cool gadgets we see in the flood of videos online, you should include a container for your prescription medications, important papers, contact list, etc.
So how do we decide what we should include in the bag? First we need to ask ourselves some basic questions. The answers to these questions will help determine what is needed for your bag.
      
 Where am I going?
How am I getting there?
What is the environment like?
How long will it take me to get there?
What problems could I encounter along the way?

Once the questions above are considered and answered, you will have a much better idea of what to include in your bag.
