Excellent post, I have bookmarked your page and will be checking out your other articles. Thank you for your organized information on so many topics. The gear reviews are very well thought out and i appreciate you recognizing that not everyone can afford the $300 water filter/ pump, even though it may technically be the “best”. Insights like that are much better IMO than just stating which is best and that you should just find a way to afford it. Common sense no bs reviews are becoming more rare as YouTube channels try to cater to sponsors. Once again, thank you for the time and effort you put into this blog. On a side note, I am currently in the military and at my post in Colorado, twice a year we do a 25 mile ruck march at 6800 feet with 50-60lb rucks. It is not a pleasant experience for most soldiers, so when I see these BOB videos on youtube I can’t understand the massive amount of weight these people put in their bags. Once these basement preppers get outside and realize the woods/safety/refuge are more than 2-3 miles from their house, they are in for a rude awakening. *edit: spelling
