Always smart-o's, I've been in the backwoods quite a bit. How do you live without water, well first there are water purification kits, and secondly there are rivers, there is snow you can boil, and finally if you have to, you buy 20 jugs of water at a local walmart and haul it down to your spot.
There are these plastic bottles you can buy, they even have this clear liquid in them that I heard it might be safe to drink. Also, sometimes there is thing that falls out of the sky as melted ice crystals. Quite fascinating.
I do not have all the answers, but this thread has some pretty silly responses in it. I am more interested in how the people in Cave Dwellings in Utah/AZ/NM lived without water. I guess if you are used to "pampered camping" in RV's, I can understand how someone could say "how can you live without water". I will give a pass to the 50+'s, but I'm not even 40 yet.
And finally, I do NOT plan to live on the land permanently in an RV, I said I wanted the land to store it and prep it for traveling.
You can just use an outdoor shower anyhow.
I don't know how I can live without running water, but maybe ALL the other times I've done it while camping is a good clue. Also, it's quite obvious that if I bought a plot of land, I would buy a small shed with an air-tight storage cabinet, and guess what, I can even store large gallons of water there, wow go figure!
