It’s been a wild ride these past few years. If you’ve been following my HD videos, I was #vandwelling for 2.5 years in my Volkswagen Vanagon. I put many miles on her, riding the nugget from hot spring to couches, and cabins. It’s a lifestyle I would go back to, but my survival situation has changed.
I bought a new van! And it broke down. Costing me a fortune. Then I was on foot, and in a tent. Winter hit. I had challenges, and the weather was nasty. It was the worst I’ve ever seen it in the #PNW Now I have a place to stay, a fast car, a part-time job, and an office to make more videos and #Art. I am very #blessed and grateful.
So here we are. Standing strong in the chaos. Better prepared.
What do I want to do next? Stay tuned.

Watch and learn how to get a free home, vehicle, or abandoned trailer like this one I found. It was left on a back road in Oregon. If someone doesn’t claim it by the posted time on the public notice, then it will be towed and impounded. To get a free house, etc. just call the Sheriff and tell the police it’s yours now, and you will be taking responsibility of ownership.
I could put this on a friend’s property, or pay only $35 per month to store it locally. Decisions…Decisions…and here I am blogging about it.
Bug Out Bag and Bicycle – Winter Camping Gear Setup
Dear Survival Journal,
I got a way late start. Was also considering busing to the warming center in Astoria, OR. That’s smart.
Hiking 7 miles ain’t. But I was determined to bog through the uphill swamp: half in the dark. I got turned around at one point where trees fell over the path. I also slipped once, but rehearsed in my head what to do. I threw my 1 gallon water jug, and braced myself. Yup, I carried a heavy water container from Ave. U to The Hiker Cabins on Tillamook Head. My shoulders and arms are torn up. My 110 liter Kelty backpack had to be 70 pounds.
Plus, I was running on a bum sprained ankle…wore a too tight brace…My left shoulder hurt the most. It was so tight. But I had an indica BHO cartridge in my vape pen to finish off. It was charging in my bag on the hike with a portable power bank charger. I brought too much stuff. Like 6 pairs of socks, an umbrella, a dud smoke grenade, and a giant tarp. It’s 11am – dark at 4:25pm. So cold. My hands are numb.

Cam here. Thanks for visiting my emergency preparedness blog. We are pumping out a bunch of new videos this month, so I hope you like watching them. Please share this quick informational production with friends. Here’s the short link to copy and paste: https://youtu.be/7O-KCu_Jqf4 This is important and fun stuff for preppers of all skill levels.
I threw this kit together with gear items on hand that were laying around unused and therefore extra. We have the basic survival necessities covered for the most part, but improvements can always be made. I did notice there wasn’t an emergency blanket in this canister, and they can be purchased for $2. However, if there’s a tsunami wave on the Oregon Coast, I like my odds of living. I have kits like this one gallon cache, plus backpacks loaded with necessities, and bikes with racks placed strategically all over the Pacific Northwest.
What’s your plan for safe escape from danger? Stay healthy out there. And keep your head on a swivel. Few things are more valuable that situational awareness. Cheers.
Survival Bros shows you exactly how to get FREE CLOTHING IN LIFE! Click on the HD YouTube video above for the exact mission details. All you have to do is visit your local painting supply company store, and request a complimentary painter’s shirt or even a hoodie. Every painter needs a shirt, preferably one with sleeves to protect themselves from paint over spray, and drips. Trust me, I’ve painted houses and after pulling globs of latex out of my chest hair, a barrier of soft, breathable protection is a must.
It’s simple: Request swag (politely), get gear. Try this method of acquiring, and comment on the blog post here if you have any luck. It’s worked every time for me when I need fresh clothes to wear, and there’s more than one paint shop to pick from.
I got another free shirt, this time from Rodda Paint in McMinnville, Oregon by asking…
More proof you can do this too.
Send me (Cam) and email at thesurvivalbros@gmail.com if you have a photo you’d like to share, or want to suggest a topic for me to write an article about here on SB. Thanks.
