In Deschutes County Oregon we are advised to be prepared to live off grid completely isolated for 90 days in the event of the Cascadia Earthquake Event. Suddenly the rather casual camping gear list becomes a formalized to get list. As in planning for a 3 month camping trip, we need a lot of the correct supplies. (only we don't have to carry it) Like say you have 90 days worth of freeze dried food, do you have 90 days worth of water? Got food and water for those animals if water is scarce or the faucet goes dry, can you create an outhouse, or have buckets and a 5 gallon toilet seat? How do you cook for 3 months, you need a lot of pans, paper plates, plastic cups, or else you need a huge amount of hot water, a way to heat it and a whole bunch of fuel. Speaking of which you also may need to heat your shelter and have a warm place to sleep and to keep your water thawed. Just some of the things I've been dealing with this summer. Jim
