Get a meaner dog! Chris

We appreciate our solitude and are lucky to be able to have it where we boondock in Colorado. It may take a bit more effort to find the spots and some of the "roads" are a bit iffy but it's well worth it as we rarely see anyone for the one or two weeks at a time we camp. Have a 4x4 camper and you can get even deeper in, just watch out for those hill folk. They can get kinda funny from time to time. ;)

About the only people you'll see in SE Oregon are ranch hands looking for cattle. Never have I come across anyone the least bit threatening, and I've spent a lot of time camping out there.

Death Valley in August.

Your already there in California. Lots of places in the deserts and mountains on State, Forest Service lands, and BLM lands, that have dispersed camping.......otherwise known as, If you can get there, you can park and camp there for as long as you want. Problem is for remoteness, you have to think 4X4 pickup with a camper. An RV is never going to make it thru the desert washes far enough, or blaze trails on 100 year old abandoned mountain roads, to a remote spot where you will not see anyone for months.

Sounds like a good idea.

The guy in the video went 22 months without seeing another soul in the Mohave Desert.

Not sure if that's plug or a pan- didja check out that guy's vids posted AFTER he'd been out there alone all that time?

Go ahead and scare yourself, O.P.! Here a link to what you'll be after 22 months without human contact.

hey, don't be telling him stuff like that about eastern Oregon. We have had it nice a quiet for many years and we like it this way. we are a nice place to visit, just don't move here. That is what a Governor of Oregon told the people of Calif many years ago.

I went on city-data website several years ago looking at places in Colorado to move in our retirement. Boy, did I run across some snobs who advised me, quite rudely, that that Colorado was THEIR land and they did NOT appreciate outsiders moving in and occupying THEIR wilderness areas, since it would mean less for THEM. One was a guy who stated he had moved there 20 years previously when he had taken a job with a mining corporation. I suggested that a great portion of the land was federal land, owned by all US citizens, but that I could understand their feelings - the native Americans must have felt much the same way lol. I met a lot more decent people than idiots! I must admit. We love Colorado area, and the Yukon is also nice for privacy.

I'll have to spend a few weeks in Oregon now! just out of meanness...

I'm not sure that's the link you wanted to post. I didn't watch the whole thing but, it seems to just be a guy raffling something for someone with cancer.

That, or the person who just has to run their rattletrap Harbor Freight construction generator 24 hours a day because they just have to watch TV, and the concept of an inverter is beyond them.
