ok, i'm back. i'll try and explain myself a bit better.
heading south for the winter won't be an issue if, i said if, the ts ever does htf.
anyhow, i mentioned the stanley and salmon areas because of the access to wilderness.
expanding on boise, i go one step further than you.
a few things i seriously want to avoid are borders, railroads and major interstates and highways.
troop movements, machinery, weapons etc......boise is in a bad area, very major r.r. just out of town, it's a hub of major roadways.
it's just way to much for me. if the shtf, boise would be used as the hub it is.
if our government was using the r.r. to transfer and ship weapons, anyone getting even close could be in deep sh*t.
does this make sense to you?
you still havent explained how you would plan on getting out of Stanley if ts hits the fan.

like i said before, already. if the shtf, i'm digging in, i've responded that i would not be heading for the desert and would be heading into the wilderness most likely, or hitting one of a few areas where i know people, where i know people whom are living off the grid like myself. i don't see what the big deal here is, i know what the poster asked for, and was only speaking of my opinion. i don't like or trust the boise area, for reasons stated. if you do, great, i hope all is wall and safe there.
the one road in and out is a positive thing, i'm heading the other direction anyhow.
i think we should end this here, once someone starts with calling someone elses thoughts and ideas 'dangerous', i'm gone.
i'd call your dangerous, but it's not my job to judge you.
by the way, op, want a nice little town, with lots of wilderness and many positives.
try silver city new mexico and the gila.
I meant no offense. Im just trying to understand how you plan on surviving the -40f weather there ? the growing season is very short as well. if the weather wasnt so cold I would agree its an ideal area to hide out. the warm lake area (30 miles east of cascade) is very similiar except it has a lot of wild huckleberries growing and the temps arent as extreme
