A spot in the wilderness might provide a solution. It would be wise, though, to pick that spot in advance and to develop at least some rudimentary wilderness skills. Early Preparations: Layout Primary and secondary routes to winter emergency quarters and summer emergency quarters:(recce the area)
Things to consider:
Go over the area, know the distance from home, prepare wood to burn at the site, especially for winter, ensure the area selected has good hunting and fishing possibilities, test in season. Have a good rifle and ammunition with good fishing equipment. make sure you have two excellent shovels pointed and square. Have a pick, saw, sharp axe and knife. be able to snare small animals such as rabbits.
