Thread: Off-grid survivalist from Utah

  1. #1

    Default Off-grid survivalist from Utah

    Hello folks!

    I am a long time off-grid survivalist from Utah. I designed and built my own solar survival cabin, drilled my own well, harvest rain and gray water, and use a solar composting toilet.

    I garden, hunt, and fish for most of my supplies.

    I am always interested in sharing ideas about simple survival shelters and off-grid living.

    He's been kind of quiet lately, welcome to the forum lamar.
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"

    Well, looks like he gone, but if you want to catch up with him, google lamar5292 , only 13 pages of all the various other forums, blogs and so forth, peddling his book.

    Sorta too bad as some of his stuff was pretty good.................too bad about the 'tude".

    Why would he build that little cabin smack in the middle of an auto salvage yard?

    Still trying to figure out what happened in this thread that was untoward.
    I was intrigued with the topic, watched 2 of the survivalpro's videos, and the next thing I know, he is banned.
    What have I missed?

    The thread was removed. He was having a bad night or just had a burr under his saddle making some unnecessary references to "arm chair survivlists", etc. Despite being told several times to relax he continued and was banned. No biggy. Happens all the time.

    And if he hadn't been stopped there, the next thing would have been unnecessary references to "lumpy chair survivalists", and then all hell would have broken loose.
