Staying Alive Out There:
The Do’s & Don’t Of Bug Out Shelters
By Franke Schein
When it comes to survival security, there is only one sure fired way to accom-
plish this task, and that means doing things a little different than one normally
would.
The first , and most important part, is where the nightly camp is set up.
Ideally the camp should be away from any roads or trails, have a water source
nearby, and be located part way up a steep hillside—preferably among the wild-
est and sharpest thorns and briars that can be found.
Secondly; the camp should be arranged to maximize air flow, and also allow for
decent surveillance observation of potential approaches that an intruder might
use.
The next task is to determine what type of shelter that you will be using. This is
probably a choice that will have to be made that depends entirely upon the over-
all tactical situation that you are facing.
Essentially, you could opt to set up a cold camp, or go ahead and construct
some type of shelter, such as a mountain tent or poncho ―hooch‖. Using
either of these types of shelter will be determined by the following:
1. Are you being followed?
2. Are there other survivalist in the area that might spot your shelter?
3. Is the weather sever enough to warrant erecting a shelter?
Whatever the case, a shelter comes in handy when it’s raining outside, but
sometimes it will reduce your ability to see and hear if somebody is ap-
proaching your camp area.
Typically I utilize a G.I. Poncho shelter. As you can see in the picture
above, I tend to gravitate towards the camouflaged ones that help to break
my outline. These types of shelter have been in use by military forces, and
they can be built low to the ground.
The picture above shows a typical poncho hooch. There are many ways to
build such a hooch, but one of the easiest ways is to simply find two
ground saplings and bend them over to form a small arch. The free ends
can be weighed down with rocks or a log, or using parachute cord, can be
staked into the dirt.
The real secret to these hooches, is to keep them as low to the ground as
possible. This presents a lower profile,, and also help to protect you from
driving rain. The arch also allows you some degree of having the ability to
sit up, and move around inside of the hooch.
During periods of snowy weather, it’s also possible to build a similar shel-
ter, but instead of using just two saplings, use four saplings. Each pair
of saplings are bent towards each other, and then tied off
with parachute cord. This gives the shelter much more
strength when snow builds up on top, or there is a heavy
frost during the early morning hours.
Alternatively, one could tie some cross beams at the top and
sides of the poncho hooch that will give it even greater
strength under heavier loads. I wouldn’t take but a few extra
minutes to insure a decent nights sleep.
The Three Level System:
Level One: [ 45 to 65 Degrees and Above ]
Poncho Liner
Level Two: [ 30 to 45 Degrees ]
Poncho & Poncho Liner
Level Three: [ 20 to 30 degrees ]
Poncho, Poncho Liner, and Emergency Space Blanket
Anything colder than 20 degrees dictates a sleeping bag be
used for staying warm during sleep periods.
Both the Poncho Liner, and the Space Blanket can be used
inside of the sleeping bag as additional layering and heat re-
tention during extremely cold nights. This precludes having
to carry a heavy extreme cold weather sleeping bag, unless
of course you happen to live in Alaska where –65 below isn’t
uncommon at night.

Survival Firearms:
The Survivalist Dilemma
By Franke Schein
It’s all to easy these days to get caught up in the trend of carrying around multi-
ple firearms, multiple magazines, and hundreds, if not thousands of rounds of
ammunition. This can be, what makes or breaks a real survivalist.
The fact that so many survivalists are placing their faith into the hands of their
weapons, and forgetting basic wilderness primitive survival skills—is scary in
itself.
It also shows that they actually haven’t done their survival planning, and are ill
equipped to actually make it out there if The Shit Hits The Fan, like everybody
thinks it will.
Survival really isn’t about guns. Even though guns play an important part of any
survival scenario, they come second to everything else when you consider their
practical ity and usefulness.
No matter what type of weapon that you choose to take with you,
it remains that ammunition will always be the number one con-
cern. When the ammo runs out—then what. The gun becomes yet
another item that you will be forced to carry around that takes up
weight and space in your backpack.
Humping multiple weapons, magazines, and tons of ammunition
is nothing more than a false sense of security, or nothing less
than denial of the fact that survivalists require more food than
guns.
I personally opt for one handgun for self defense purposes, and
one long gun for other purposes. The ideal long gun would be a
pump shotgun with several different types of rounds, but no more
than 40 rounds of shells.
My favorite survival weapon is an old beat up Mosin-Naggant Rus-
sian battle rifle that fires a 7.62x54R round. This proven battle
rifle is capable of taking down large game, as well as being used
for personal protection. The down side is that it’s a bolt action
rifle, and thereby, urban survivalist tend to ignore this fine
weapon because they can’t ―spray‖ a thousand rounds into the A decent 12-gauge shotgun, and approximately 40 rounds of
wind. (mixed) ammunition will be enough to allow the average survivalist
to get into his safe area. The addition of a handgun, also improves

with this rifle, or replaced with a modern semi-auto carbine like
the Colt AR-15, or other assault rifle style weapons. The down-
side to these weapons are the tremendous amount of magazine
that must be carried, as well as the amount of ammunition to fill
those magazine.
I personally believe that having one magazine in the weapon, and
an additional 6 magazines is all that is required. That makes it
pretty easy—seven 30 round magazines equates to 210 rounds of
ammo for the weapon. At current rate, the cost of 20 rounds
of .223 here in Alaska is around $12.50 a box. That means 10
boxes will cost $125.00. Consequently, 20 rounds of 7.62x54R
cost less than $6.00 a box, and equals $60.00.
Handguns play another distinct role in survival situations.
Movement Tips:
It doesn’t really matter what kind, or what caliber, as nearly any handgun is bet-
ter than nothing when it comes to self defense. By Franke Schein

Most people tend to prefer the large heavy caliber-semi automatic handguns
like the Colt .45acp or the .44-Magnum revolver. Either of these will perform as
expected, and both are a welcome addition to the survival armory.

No matter which type of survival guns that you decide to use, always remember
that your weapons are to be used as means to get out of trouble, as opposed to
getting into trouble.

Those [so called] survivalist that pack multiple firearms and ammunition are just
looking for trouble, or seriously infatuated with their guns. These are the people
that will probably run out of food first, and then attempt to use their weapons
against others, in order to feed their starving families.

Hell—if you are smart, ya’ might even trade them a $6.00 sack of rice, for a
$2,000.00 assault rifle. Provided that their hungry enough and pose no threat to
you and yours.

Food For Thought…

Executing a well planned Bug Out operation means that you will be
spending a lot of time with boots on the ground—and we all know that
humping heavy a rucksacks through a thick forest, or even a sprawl-
ing hot desert, will eventually take its toll on the physical body.

Notwithstanding the rigors on the feet, one must also realize that
Bugging out will have the same excessiveness on the human mind.

It’s easy to get used to walking a certain way, easy to get caught in
the psychological trap of doing the same things, the same way—time
after time. But in a survival situation that doesn’t hold water.

Movement should be slow, but deliberate. If at all possible, walking

noise should be kept down to a bare minimum.

Stay off the trails and roads. These places will lead to discovery and
death. If it’s absolutely necessary to use a roadway or trail system—
then parallel it from a distance. Equipped with a map and compass, or
a GPS unit, that task can be simplified—thereby making it much eas-

ier to stay on the intended route.

Keep your feet dry; wash them every day. Even if it’s just a matter of
removing your boots and socks, and dipping them into a stream.
Hydrate yourself when ever you feel the need. Having an adequate water in-
take, is what your body will require under high duress and physical situations
Resupply your canteens every opportunity that presents itself. Don’t pass a
running streams or pond water—thinking that you’ll hit the next one. There
may not be another one for days.
Keep your eyes on the ground for signs of boobytraps, wireless alarms, and
trip wire traps/alarms. Setting one of these off will announce your presence
to the world. Even though it’s a difficult job, the point man, or even yourself—
must always keep in mind that you will be sharing the woods with other peo-
ple. Don’t foolishly think that you will be alone out there.
Stay off the ridgelines, and out of direct sunlight. Both of these areas will
make you more visible at distances beyond normal eye sight. Use the shadow
as much as possible, and move deliberately through danger areas that pose
certain risks.
Danger Areas:
Open fields or clearings.
Crossing Bridges
Cross a roadway or trail.
Going around inhabited structures or villages.
Walking on rail road tracks.
Each of these danger area will allow other people to spot your movements,
and potentially intercept your planned route of march. Getting caught in an
ambush because you crossed a bridge without first checking it out, would be
a dumb rookie mistake.
Watch for signs of activity around you. Learn to recognize the signs that
you are following somebody’s route. Little signs, such as broken
branches, twisted leaves, crushed grass, and foot prints in the dirt, as
well as rocks that have been stepped on—will let you know if there are
other people in the area.
Never shoot your weapons unless you are forced to.
Don’t build a campfire unless you have no other choice. Then put it out
as quickly as you can, and move out of the area rapidly. Smoke will al-
ways attract somebody’s attention. The best time to use a campfire, is
when it’s raining. Both the moisture and wind (if any) will help to mask
the smoke and it’s associated scent.
Don’t use a hatchet, axe, or saw when setting up camp. Likewise, don’t
break branches across your knee. Both of these sounds carry a long
way—especially at night when the air is thinner. Pickup dead branches
that you need for your campfire.
Learn to build a ―Dakota Fire Hole‖ to build a nearly smokeless fire. It
saves fuel, and will not smoke as much as a regular above ground camp
fire.
While enroute, always stop often to rest. This is also a good time to re-
main motionless and listen to what is going on around you. It should
come as no surprise, when you hear the sounds of other people around
you.
Use the Triple Loop-Back technique to determine if you are being fol-
lowed by another party.
The Red Dots indicate a deviation from the original path that you
are travelling. You make at least two turns across your path, and
then return to the original route. At each turn, it’s a good idea to
hunker down and wait for at least five minutes before proceeding
to the next turn. This gives you a chance to see and hear what’s
going on.
Movement must be matched to suit the terrain, and your physical
condition, as well as the overall tactical situation.
It may be that there are people coming up behind you, but they
have no idea that you are already ahead of them, even aware of
them. It might be wise to allow them to pass, or detour further off
their track. That is a tactical situation that you will have to make on
the spot.
As a very minimum, I would personally like to have a ―look-see‖. At
the people trailing me, and then deice what my next course of ac-
tion will be. If they look like survivalist just Bugging Out, then I will
allow them to pass unmolested. If they appear to be a para-military
unit tracking me—then another decision must be made. The most
important decision will be if I will continue my original Bug out, or
lead them away from my Safe Area. They could be trying to follow
me to my supply stockpile in the safe area. Always a possibility
that must be considered.
