The Panhandle Rancher visits once again…..SHTF life on a prairie ranch

  Much has been written about hiding your retreat far off road and deep in the woods. I own and operate a working Texas ranch located 25 miles from the nearest small city of 2,000 souls. Off the beaten path and rural the setting may be but the surrounding mostly flat prairie poses unique security [...]

Guest Post: An “Ecological” View Toward Prepping

by Wyzyrd   I’m NOT talking about “being Green” here. Probably a good idea, but not the point of the post.    If we listen too much to “Doomsday Preppers” and similar media-outlets, prepping seems to entail “Pick your disaster scenario and ignore everything else”.  Peak Oil. Bank Collapse. EMP Attack. Solar Flares. Dirty Bombs. [...]

Guest Post: Fighting fire when the SHTF

  By FireGrump   We often talk about all the things to do to prepare for the worst. Whether it’s eco-collapse, terrorism, natural catastrophe-whatever, we also have to think about protecting ourselves from fire.

 by John Taylor The ability to make a fire I think is an assumed skill that many people think they have and in turn decide that there is not skill work needed.

Guest Post: Inalienable, My Ass

 by Rock Cowles I don’t believe in natural rights or inalienable rights. I think they are desperate philosophical fantasies, much like Heaven and the altruistic Old Man in the Sky waiting to bring us home and grant our every wish.   If we had Natural Rights, wouldn’t we all look like perfect clones sharing all [...]

Guest Post:Why I Prepare…….from KM

  Why I Prepare…   I know what it’s like to be helpless.  In August, 1992 at the age of twenty-two, I found myself in the battle of my life.  Having been diagnosed with a rare form of childhood cancer called Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma, I felt like my life was in the hands of the experts—surgeons, [...]

Guest Post: Why do I Prepare…….. by Blueridgeprepper1

  Have you ever thought to yourself, “This country has lost its moral core”?  Do you believe that because of liberal influences and a misguided Supreme Court we now live in a country that has Freedom FROM Religion, rather than Freedom OF Religion?  If so, you are not alone.  For many years I have noticed [...]
