Another list you might peruse under the “How Much” category.
The Author of this list is Jerry D. Young. He developed it with the idea of “How Much” you ‘d need for 30 years alone.
I dunno, he might chime in on this post
L
ifetime alone in the Wilderness (30 years)
30 Years Alone In The WildernessSituation:
You are fed up with life in the city. You’ve lost your family and friends to an on-going plague. With the plague taking so many, people are isolating themselves in small clans. You decide you would rather live by yourself in the wilderness.
Givens:
You are 45ish, and your family history is such that you can expect to live 30 more years, in good health.
You can live in any wilderness area of the US without fear of outside human contact.
With the steady die-off of humans, natural flora and fauna in the chosen area are making a big comeback and the weather stays in the area’s normal limits. Only things suitable for the Growing Zone of the selected area can be grown.
You can pick your vehicle of choice for the single one way trip, worth up to $60,000.
You can have one trailer that can be realistically towed with the vehicle worth up to $30,000
You can have the guns you want for the situation.
You have $300,000 from the sale of your house, and a self-imposed timetable of 6 months, to get the rest of the things you want. Custom items can be made, and standard items are in stock and available for regular prices.
Where do you go, how do you get there, what do you take with you, and what do you do when you get there? Take your time and include as many details as possible.
Or, what do I need to add, delete, or change, if you don’t want to do a list of your own?
