Found the go fund me page that explains the man died from fatal injuries trying to navigate the canyon to get to the road. The female ha da severe ankle injury require surgery. I simply think they made a bad navigation error and got in very extreme terrain and had a mishap. According to the timeline on the page if they’d stayed with the car they would have been found an entire day earlier. Assuming it had gas they could have even run the ac periodically to stave off heat trauma

Sad. I agree... sounds like they got into some rough ground. Leaving the car and going off trail was a risky move. Unfortunately, it didn’t turn out well.

I also have a Garmin InReach. Great piece of mind when I’m far from cell service.

Hmm. Interesting. I’ve been absent from all social media, ect for a long time, so I’m catching up on what’s going on LOL. Good to see something move in the right direction.

Another thought- after the last panic I invested in some spare magpul followers and springs to keep my existing mags running that much longer (hope I never need them).
I did the same

Sounds like a good move!

I have my grandfather’s 721 in 300H&H. Fantastic rifle and caliber! He killed many mule deer, elk and a multitude of whitetails with it. Ammo is expensive and hard to find. You’ll want to reload for it if you can. I did see several boxes of ammo on the shelf though at the Cabelas in akworth GA. Prices were $49 and $75 / box of 20. Not many people buying ammo for that caliber though, so that’s a plus. I’d get it for sure.

I got locked about a year ago from ebay for something similar. I just let them enjoy life without me...
Stinks though if you’re selling a lot though

Sure wish I could find some large magnum pistol primers. Need to up my searching skills I guess lol.

My wife was all wound up about masks while carrying a few days ago. I guess she heard (read) this too. I’m guessing she read it on facebook. Fake news. Maybe in another state but not here.

I’m still full time and considered “essential”. Airline pilot. I feel fortunate to still have a job. There’s hardly any passengers though, so hopefully I won’t get furloughed in the fall. Weird times

I believe that driving for a recreational purpose is listed under essential activity. Keeping social distance in mind. Based on that, and that it is an individual recreational activity, there is a turkey in trouble Sat.
So does this pertain the latest stay at home order? My boat is already on the river in a slip. I was planning to do some fishing tomorrow. Dont want to get intercepted
I’m not exactly staying at home if I’m on the river...

I'm on day 6 of employment and finally got my computer working. Also, I'm happy to report we put our house on the market Friday and had a full price offer accepted within 24 hours. We then disinfected anything people may have touched.
I'm honestly shocked people are still buying houses but I guess the rates are too good for some to pass up..
We just sold a rental house. Had two full price offers, and one of them upped it above our asking price It was on the market a week. We just put the house we live in on the market too. People are still buying, but I’m super reluctant to let a bunch of people walk around inside my house I just hope it sells quick!

We are staying in, and hopefully, will not need to get out but to go to the grocery store in a couple weeks.
Instacart app on you phone works great if you’re in an area that will deliver. You pay a small fee (< $10) per order, and someone shops for you. They’ll bring it to your door.

If she's a flight attendant, wouldn't her employer have guidance on what to do in this situation?
It wouldn’t hurt to contact the FA supervisor or FA union (unless she works for Delta... no union). Depending on the company, they can have a wealth of resources. I’m a pilot, but my company’s guidance is essentially to self-quarantine and call my doctor. They do offer any assistance as needed though.

The coronavirus (CV) is unlike any SHTF scenario I've read about... it's almost SHTF in slow motion... so I've decided to set a $2,000 budget and start prepping for CV.
I occurred to me that this is something we all should do, although our budgets might be different so I decided to start this thread. Let's assume that we already have several handguns, long guns, ammo, and a couple of weeks of food, but not much else.
How would you spend the money? You can go over the budget a couple of thousand, if necessary.
Oh, and what would you do that you wouldn't do normally?
I would start by getting more than a couple weeks of food. Water, generator, gas, cold and cough meds....

Good to hear it has worked well for you! I got the 66i because I wanted to be able to load the OnX chip for private property lines. I haven’t had it very long, but I have tested it some. So far, the InReach has worked well when my cell phone doesn’t . Next month I will take it into the Sawtooth mountains of Idaho backpacking. I’ll let you know how it does.
