I made it, I'm here. After all that I've learned of what may come I decided not to sit around and wait for it. I picked up and moved to Alaska with little money in my pocket. I looked at jobs and ended up working in a cannery in Petersburg for the Summer. It was hell and I don't recommend doing it unless you have no other option. It is very dangerous and the pay sucks. I was working 16hr days toward the end of the summer when things picked up. We were processing millions of pounds of salmon a day. It is truly amazing that Salmon even exist with all that we took over the Summer. It was disgusting work, very unclean and not sanitary at all. Well I finished out the Summer there with a broken hand not to mention that I put a fillet knife through my palm the first two weeks I was there, I'm definitely not cut out for that type of work. I could not believe how many foreigners were working there. It was like I was in a really cold part of Mexico. I was the minority (Caucasian) the rest were from parts of Russia and Mexico.

Anyway, I hopped on a ferry for 60 bucks and made it to Juneau. When I got here I stayed at the Juneau International Hostel for 10$ a day until I found a place to stay, I was renting a room for 700$ a month. That wasn't the best option either but it was all I had, this person I was renting from had (no joke) 40 different birds making noise 24/7 it was driving me crazy. I got a really good job and have since moved out and now I am wondering if I picked a safe part of Alaska... Im in Juneau obviously and pretty close to the ocean.

I was looking at some maps and I am pretty sure I am as safe as I can be for the coming polar shift. I am surrounded by mountains which I hope will break up the tsunamis if and when they head this way. The mountains will act as gigantic break walls there are many of them between myself and the ocean. If someone could look at my location and let me know if there might be a better place I would appreciate it.

I have most of my survival gear purchased and just need to find a cheap place to get MREs or some other type of food ration. Thanks, any help or suggestions would be awesome, you guys are the best! I love the ATS clientele.

I have a pretty amazing story so ask questions, fire away!

How pissed are you going to be if nothing happens?

Wow what a journey. I am sure you will be much better off than a lot of us. And $10 a day for motel, you should live there lol. As far as mre's, most I have seen are expensive, maybe try making your own? There are plenty of sites explaining how, just search for "homemade mre's". Good luck! S+F

i heard that the new updated map shows alaska underwater

Dry dog food usually has allot of nutritional value for a low cost as does dry rice and beans. You'll need a good supply of fresh spring water so go with the giant office size bottles if you don't have another source for water. Become proficient with a bow and arrows and teach yourself how to make your own. There are plenty of videos on youtube for making your own bows and arrows.

Alaska has many beautiful places. I really doubt these SHTF conspiracy stories, but what the heck - maybe you will land a good job up there and start to enjoy your life there.

Ok Rambo ...so what made you pick Alaska ..? Isn't that as coastal as you can get ...?
While you are there... maybe you should start building a large raft .. or boat ... you know .. just incase ...
How do Ramen noodles hold up as emergency food ..?

Awesome! Now all you have to worry about is HAARP, being invaded by Russia, polar bears and Sarah Palin. Seriously though, hope you enjoy it!

I'll be in Denali National Park from May 1st until September 20th.

Not because the end of the world, But because it's one of the nicer places to be a slave.

this guy sounds like he's in Denial Park.. if this dude is telling the truth...oy vey.

Honestly, I don't mean to scare you but I couldn't possibly think of a worse place to be than along the pacific rim anywhere, should anything earth-shattering (pun intended) occur.

Central Canada would probably be your best bet.

I'm in an uncharted town in Kansas... But... I was born in KS.... Here in ks people started packing heat for "whatevers to come" its kinda ridicules... According to hopi creation myth... Sometimes the pole flips twice.. And they had boats... Truth is... There may be no safe zones really. I like to think I'm in one tho. :-)

Extending down into the Northern US Prairies. One of the most geologically stable areas on the planet. Though, I wouldn't want to be here in a drought.
