1. Plentiful Nearby Food Supplies - common consensus is 1 year on hand. Unless you already know how to raise food don’t think its gonna be easy.

2. Lots of Land - depends, how much can you protect?

3. Shelters - anything specific about the shelter other than insulation, wood heat, and wind power with back up generators? generators are noisy and require gas. What will you do when gas runs out? I vote for solar with battery banks if you get enough sun.

4. Guns? - and more guns. A minimum of four, handgun, .22 rifle, shotgun, and hunting rifle. Possibly also a ar-15 type.

5. Ammo? - several thousand rounds for each gun, plus spare parts.

6. Tools? - yes

7. Sanitation? - If you eat then you are gonna need this. Improper handling of sanitation kills a lot of people.

All of these are deep subjects by themselves.

Plentiful Nearby Food Supplies -— Meaning there is a massive supply of food I know I can procure from the wild. I have the skills for this, I have no doubt about this.

re: sanitation

Buy some 1 lb bags of dry chlorine pool shock. You can make lots of bleach from it and that stuff has a 20 year shelf life unlike LC. Mixing rules are on the net.
