Re: Survival Cache

I watched the video and was thinking about the same topic.

My first concern, with the way I lose my keys, will I be able to find a cache in 20 years?

Good luck. It is amazing in such a short time the improvements you have seen, going from 5 minutes to 20 minutes.

As you have noted, my preps have been used for natural disa...
