Tell one person your route and a hard turnaround time — the hour you start walking out regardless of whether you reached the objective. Search parties work from that time, not from when you're "late." Written on a napkin at home is worth more than a plan you carried out there with you.

Nora Solready home

Pick an out-of-town relative as the family's message relay and make sure everyone can recite that number. Local lines and towers jam first during a disaster, but a long-distance call often gets through — so if you're separated, you all check in with the same person instead of hunting for each other.

Keep a manual can opener in the kitchen drawer and a second one in your supply bin — a shelf of canned goods is worthless if the only opener you own plugs into the wall or lives in a drawer you can't reach in the dark. Test it on a can now; the cheap ones slip off the rim.

Keep a list of what everyone actually takes on hand, but also know which meds are dangerous to stop suddenly—insulin, heart and seizure drugs, blood thinners. If a disruption looks like it will outlast your supply, call the pharmacy early about an emergency refill rather than rationing doses quietly at home.

Test your inverter with the load you'd actually run before you need it — many cheap modified-sine units will hum a fridge or a CPAP for a minute and then trip on the startup surge. Check the surge rating, not just the continuous watts, and confirm your sensitive gear tolerates modified sine.

Learn to read a map before you leave the trailhead, then keep it folded to your area in a pocket, not buried in the pack. Phones die at altitude and in cold, and a paper map with a compass bearing doesn't need battery or signal. Practice thumbing your position every twenty minutes so you're never guessing where you were.
