    Default The best place to live the wilderness for years and years and years?

    So lets say you wanted to say screw society and head for the hills for good. Where would you go?

    Almost a year and a half ago you came here and asked the same question.....and you're still looking?

    Well - since you started this thread a while back http://www.wilderness-survival.net/f...226#post238226

    And in that thread I asked you.....
    Are you looking to buy a piece of remote property, or just freeload on somebody else's land?
    To which you responded......
    Freeload on somebody else's land.
    I still got nothing for you other than if society is that bad, why are you still a part of it after this much time?

    I'm looking for another wilderness place. The place I had didn't work out.

    So - tell us where you went - how long you stayed - what worked - what didn't - what you would do different.

    No wonder it didn't work out.
    You might consider changing your attitude, for starters.

    Certainly not to a web forum.

    The first places would be to see a few old friends, have a few beers, reminisce, and let them know I was dropping out.

    Assuming I lived through that, to Mom's. That one would be tough, before, during, and after.

    Then, the bank. That one would feel good, for a little while.

    Then, I'd just follow my nose and/or stomach. I certainly would not drive stakes, society finds me.

    He won't have to travel far to see mom. Maybe up the stairs out of the basement. I think we have his number.

    aw, I was gonna recommend pitching camp near a moonshiner's camp, pot farm, or methlab. Those places seem to be notoriously difficult to find and are most definitely occupied by like minded freeloaders. I also recommend a police officer costume, just for laughs.

    Since you want to get away from society AND freeload on other peoples properties let me suggest a place that's probably quite near to you. It's located in Chino, California. It has some wide open areas where you can pitch a tent or hammock and not have to worry about paying bills or working or any of that stuff. Here's a write up on it.

    I would say Southern California, or as the locals refer to is, SoCal. Lots of wilderness. I would also say, stay far, far, far away from Utah.

    It's too bad that we have jumped straight to "Whack-a-troll"....was kinda interested to see what had transpired in the interim......Then again on the other hand....never mind.

    I would also add that a very good tan is helpful. Make sure that you have no ID and the only words you say is "No habla Engles".
