    Quick video from Mike Glover of Field Craft Survival.
    Worst case scenario is a walk away bug out.
    I doubt anyone will do an actual recon of a bug out, or place caches of heavier items along your planned path, but he brings up some things one may not think about.

    Good video

    We used to camp year-round on an island on the Potomac River. We had caches buried all over that island. Still some there...

    Didn't you tell me that Cache Island sunk during a tragic hurricane incident? ;)

    Good video Blaster.

    Someday someone is going to stumble across one... then there will be a reality tv series about them searching the island to find all the caches.

    They might find a refrigerator we buried there too! It didn't run, but buried underground(coffin style), our ice lasted much longer during the summer months.

    I'm seriously thinking of building some small, strategically placed "decorative walls" of block and cement around the area just for giggles.

    Just make sure the enemy can't use them to YOUR disadvantage. From some of the pics you've posted, you have clear fields of fire. Keep it that way.

    Yeah. Just something small outside the doors. Front door at driveway and side kitchen door.
