How to Disappear
There are many reasons you might want to disappear, some honorable some not so honorable. Maybe you have a stalker or you would like more privacy, maybe you are avoiding domestic violence or identity theft... whatever the reason is here are a few tips that will help you do just that. The very first thing you should do if you would like to make your earthly presence a little less conspicuous is to stop getting your mail at the place you live. A post office box really wont do either because you need two forms of identification linking you to the place you live. However, you can get a post office box with an old address if you have recently moved and still have a utility bill and one other item with your old address on it. Or if you are going to move get the PO box first, then move. Another alternative is to rent a mail box using an old address. If you have a friend that will let you use their mailbox and you don't get a lot of mail you could ask them and have your mail sent there.

Marginal Revolution: How to disappear Tips from a teacher (markets in everything): There are three key steps to disappearing. First, destroy old information about yourself. Then, create bogus information to fool private investigators who might be looking for you. The next, final step is the most important one. Is that last sentence so reassuring? Usually, I don’t hear back from my clients. I occasionally wonder that if I had a) a new identity, b) enough money to live on, and c) a willingness to live abroad and no family for them to threaten, how long would it take a team of ten professional hit men to find me. For the pointer I thank Henry Farrell. Addendum: Bruce Bartlett refers me to www.escapeartist.com.

From a Sarajevo War Survivor: Experiencing horrible things that can happen in a war - death of parents and friends, hunger and malnutrition, endless freezing cold, fear, sniper attacks. 1. Vanishing Point: How to disappear in America without a trace Where there's water, life is possible. True, it may be very difficult and very hard to live, depending, but anyone who's driven, hiked, or camped in the American South West will have noticed that cities and ranches crop up where there's surface water or where there's been a well dug. Within the state of California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, and Colorado, there are deserts, mesas, mountains, and forests where normally people never or rarely visit; not-so-secret places where there's water, access to a road within a day's hike, and where a fairly rugged individual may hide while remaining basically healthy, marginally well fed, and reasonably sane. In this section I'll look at two such environments, neither of which I would recommend, but one of which I'd suggest is a reasonable way to live in basic health while either on the run, hiding out from the law, old girl friends, the draft for an illegal war, putative wives and such.

Katadyn Pocket Water Microfilter Review In my opinion, a water filter is one of the most important pieces of gear you can carry. Without water, your chances of surviving for any length of time are pretty minimal. Not having enough clean drinkable water prevents your body from carry out its normal functions, and can lead to death in as little as three days (possibly much sooner in harsh desert environments). Whether you’re a hiker, a prepper or just someone who enjoys wilderness activities, having a way to obtain clean drinkable water is essential to your survival. While there are a number of water filters on the market, there is only one that I trust enough to put in my bugout bags, and carry as my main form of filtration when hiking. Over the years I have encountered a number of different types of water filters. Why I prefer the Katadyn Pocket Microfilter The Katadyn Pocket Microfilter is no skimpy water filter, the thing is tough and can take a beating. In a survival situation, water is your number one priority.

Frank M. Ahearn - How To Disappear How to use a Compass - Compass and Map interaction Kjetil Kjernsmo's illustrated guide on Using the compass in interaction with a map This is the important lesson, and you should learn it well. It's when you use both compass and map the compass is really good, and you will be able to navigate safely and accurately in terrain you've never been before without following trails. I am not covering map reading here, guess you would have to consult other sources for that, but the lesson will be useful if you have a sense of what a map says. First, a quick summary of what you will learn in this lesson: Align the edge of the compass with the starting and finishing point. Here is our compass again: The principles are much the same as in lesson 1 but this time, you are using the map to tell you which way is correct instead of your intuition. Take a map. You want to go from the trail-crossing at A, to the rock at B. Time to be careful again! Keep the compass steady on the map. There are a number of serious mistakes that can be made here.
