If you guys are following the catastrophe in Nepal... That is a situation where evacuation/displacement is both the only option, and not an option, because it happened without warning and caused total and complete destruction of everything in its path.
This is exactly how useful “Bug Out Bags” are 99% of the time. This is exactly why Hydration, Sanitation, Temperature Control are the only priorities in a bag that can fit inside a five gallon bucket.
