Emergency Preparedness Consultant Introduces Customizable Bug-out Bags

A new line of customizable disaster preparation kits featuring durable products field tested to withstand the demands of
survival situations is now available from eBugout.com.

New Richmond, WI , United States – August 18, 2015 /PressCable/

New Richmond, WI – August 18, 2015 – The personal preparedness experts at eBugout have announced a new line of emergency bug-out bags custom-tailored to meet individual needs and budgets. Preppers and survivalists as well as post-9/11 concerned citizens can prepare for natural and man-made disasters by designing a highly personalized emergency kit directly from the company’s website at http://www.eBugout.com.

The bug-out bag has its origins in the evacuation kits carried by US Air Force pilots during the Korean War, and by the CIA ‘trail watchers’ in the early days of the Vietnam War. In today’s uncertain world, a prepared individual might be forced to “bug out” from a dangerous situation with as little as a few moments notice carrying everything needed to sustain life for 72 hours or more.

According to company founder Travis Hoglund, all bug-out bag suggestions have been made based on product durability and reliability under survival conditions. “Each of the more than 250 products we recommend have been personally tested and reviewed by our team of experienced backpackers and disaster preppers. A number of these products were actually field tested during a series of backpacking treks that covered the 2,168 mile-long Appalachian Trail.”

Visitors to the eBugout.com website can read multiple product reviews within each of the essential bug-out bag categories, including recommendation for shelter, tools, fire, water, medical supplies, food, and backpacks. In the words of partner and senior product tester Benton Green, who hiked the grueling Appalachian footpath from Georgia to Maine over the course of three summers, “I learned the hard way what works and what doesn’t. Every item listed has been hand-selected and individually reviewed. If an item didn’t make the cut, we at eBugout don’t want anything to do with it.”

In addition to building a custom bag, website visitors can read the latest blog posts covering a variety of preparedness and survival topics, and register for a free subscription to eBugout’s official e-newsletter.

The eBugout concept was born in early 2015 out of a passion for the outdoors, and the recognition that the preparedness consumer had very limited options for creating a customized evacuation bag with the high quality products that can stand up to the demands of a life-challenging emergency situation. As Hoglund explains, “If a knife blade snaps off while you’re car-camping with the family, that’s an inconvenience. If it happens during an actual bug-out situation, that’s a disaster.”

Preparedness enthusiasts can meet with the eBugout team in person at the Wisconsin Prepare to Survive Expo on October 3rd and 4th in Seymour, WI at the Outagamie County Fairgrounds.
