Today’s Challenge
Put your bugout bag to the test.
Tonight, sleep outside for one night, even if it is on the back porch or your balcony. You don’t have to go to a campground – just outside.
Only use the supplies in your bugout it for this. If you really want to test things out, use your bug-out bag for supper, too. You can also do a campfire meal if you’re allowed to have a fire where you live.
Do you have the supplies you need if this was a necessity?
Here are some resources on bug-out bags.

- Lessons from an Urban Survival Course with Selco: Your Gear and How to Pack It
How good is your bug-out bag?
Is there anything you need to add to your bug-out bag after this test? Is your bag filled with the supplies you need? Share what changes, if any, you would make after this test.
