Wow, He's opening a big ole can of worms.
I'm not bugging out if at all possible. If the local power plant melts down my bug out plans involve vehicle travel. It would have to be a really worse case scenario for my to have to go it on foot with a rucksack.
www.assaultweb.net has a lot of SHTF fantasy types who spend every minute of their day debating this stuff. You might want to lurk there for awhile.
BTW: Cache usually means stuff stashed away from home, often hidden. If you own more than one piece of property, it's generally a good idea to split your gear up, rather than having all your eggs in one basket. I split mine up by Caliber. I keep most of my stuff at my primary residence. But I keep all my 7.62x39mm guns and ammo at a seperate location.
