3 Secret Hiding Spots For Your EDC Survival Gear

Three Of The Best Hiding Spots You Can Use Right Now

Planning for emergencies has always been a wise thing to do. Our grandparents were smart enough to plan ahead for far more emergency situations than we can even imagine.

Along with the modern conveniences has come a lack of self reliance. We depend on electricity to always be on, we depend on the phone lines to always be available and some people depend on the police or government to always be there to get them out of trouble.

Those of us who’ve been prepping for some time know all of those things can go down the tubes and fail in an instant. The electricity can go off for days or weeks at a time, the phone lines can get jammed up and be out-of-service, especially in an emergency.

You need to be able to rely on your own wits and the EDC (every day carry) items that you have with you at the time. But, looking like a beefed up Rambo at the grocery store is definitely overkill. So how do you get the most survival gear on your person without wearing a huge backpack or having bulging pockets?

Hiding Your Survival Gear On Your Person

Here are a few simple tips to keeping these essential EDC items on you without being noticeable to everyone around you. In fact, you may even forget that you have them with you. Check out these often forgotten “secret hidden spots”…

1. The Money Belt

These used to be in fashion many years back, but then they became a geeky, nerdy thing. Well, guess what? We don’t really care about the fashion side of the money belt; all we care about is the hidden pocket on the inside. You can use it to stash extra cash, a small knife or any other survival gear that will fit in there.

2. “Coin Pockets”

You know, that little pocket inside the right-hand front pocket in your jeans? Yeah, that one. We can use that for any number of small survival tools. They are easy to get at and the pocket is actually bigger than you might think.

3. 550 Paracord

Replace your shoestrings with 550 paracord. As you probably already know there are a ton of survival uses for paracord. You can choose a color that will accent or blend in with you shoes, if you need too. This is great for your kid’s shoes. Teach them some uses of the paracord as well and they will have a head start on survival gear and training.

These are just a few tips to keep light weight EDC survival gear hidden, yet within easy reach. There are so many other things that you can carry with you inconspicuously to learn more about them click here.

The main goal of your EDC gear should be to survive long enough to get to a safe place. Whether that is back home or to a bug out location, having the right tools that won’t slow you down and can get you there in one piece is ideal.

Remaining covert in your every day life can be the edge that keeps you alive and gets you out of sudden crisis or emergency situations. That's why you should copy this list of 27 survival gadgets, or use it to customize your own personal every day carry items:

27 Extreme Bug Out Bag Items You Never Thought Of - Hurricane Sandy Evacuation Mistakes

Extreme Bug Out Bags are essential to your survival when disaster strikes.

The recent devastation of Hurricane Sandy was a wake-up call. With widespread power outages and massive flooding destroying homes and leaving others without food, water, and electricity for nearly two weeks so far.

Unfortunately, many people in the path of this storm didn't heed the evacuation warning. Sadly, they paid the ultimate price with over 100 now reported dead...

> Toddlers were ripped out of a mother's arms and carried off in the flood waters.

> A teen son stayed to help his father in a basement that within seconds was filled with water - both drowned.

> Parents were crushed in their car by a falling tree, leaving 2 children in the back seat orphaned.

Look, when a disaster is coming your way, there's a time to stay... and a time to leave. You and I both know that disaster can strike at any minute and you and your family could be forced to leave your home and "bug out" to a safe refuge.

But 99.9% of people are just NOT prepared to evacuate at a moment's notice.

Is that YOU? Do you have a plan? Could you have left your home on short notice and safely reached you "safe harbor"? So many people can not and are not prepared to do that.

That's why this week, we'll be looking at "bugging out" so you can prepare NOW for a time when you and your loved ones may be forced to "Get Out Of Dodge".

Starting with this...

     You MUST have a "bug-out bag" ready at all times!

This is the #1 rule of preparedness when you're forced to evacuate. A bug-out bag (B.O.B. for short) is your go-to survival kit you can easily grab and go, with all of the essential items you need to get to your next destination. At a minimum, you should plan for 72 hours - but it could be longer depending upon the crisis.

The million dollar question everyone asks is...

     "What should I put in my bug out bag?"

This is probably the most talked about topic in prepper circles and if you're like most people, here's what you do...

  *  Buy an "Army bag"  
  *  Google "bug out bag contents"  
  *  Copy the list - hit the sporting goods store - pack up and...

     Ta - Dahhhhhhhh!   "Instant bug out bag", right?

Wrong, wrong, wrong

Sure, there are tons of lists scattered across the internet about what to put in a B.O.B. - but most of these lists are pure crap.

Why? Well, remember... what you pack, you must also CARRY! Most lists are filled with too many unnecessary items and quite frankly, the WRONG items at that.
