im looking at it as the **** is already hitting the fan and now is the time to get the bugout truck, caravan stock underground bunker going water filtration system up and running as well as supplies from medical to seeds and so on. I am looking at by the end of 2022 having a total underground hideout with a hidden decline that i can drive the truck and caravan down. I have everything that i have thought that i may require from wind turbines to solar panels and im not talking about one solar panel and one wind turbine i have shitloads of 3 phase wind turbines and shitloads of solar panel as well as every thing needed to be able to use them. Many communications radios of different kinds as well as compound bows and the list goes on.
Still got the truck to camo yet but will do over the coming weeks and i also have alot of other stuff that is there for trading if i need to but im sure that i have forgotten lots of other stuff, but it give you the idea of just how serious i am trying to be, but things happen slowly when your only one person and i am also working on remote camera setups that can be monitored over a large area.
Oh i also have everything required for a aquaponics setup that will run underground and feed a group of 5 and i have been doing Aquaponics for around 10 years now.

Welcome to the group. Sorry for waiting so long but we have had so many one post and done. I was about to suggest aquaponics, but see you have that covered.

Do you have your location sorted? As in do you own the land where you want to build the underground bunker? It will need to be quite a size to fit your caravan and trailer, any thoughts on how you will engineer that?

I haven't gone the underground route at either of my retreats, but will put a 12 person buried fire bunker at my coastal retreat once the house is built.

As for tunnel size to take my gear underground i have a mate in the mines whos job is to tunnel (no idea what his official job is called) but he will help me out
