What the shit is this...
Wow. Wonder how many more people are hidden out in that vast wilderness. The truly empty places on earth are becoming quite rare.

Wow x 3! Thanks for posting!

Not quite as wild of a story, but check out "Alone in the Wilderness", if you haven't already.

Yes, but wouldn't you check if the rest of the human population is still alive? Besides, two daughters need sexual partners :laughing

Oh, and you can climb a hill and look.

Wow, that is amazing. Truly sad ending though. I guess not everyone has a thirst for knowledge, I dont know how I could hear stories of "the outside world" and not want to know more. And maybe provide for your family a little better, but wow. Truly amazing.

Living off the grid? It wasn't so very long ago, There wasn't very much grid, even in America.
The Mountain men, and settlers had no grid. Even now, in major area's of Alaska...People live remotely..get supplies flown in to their isolated cabin once a year.

There was living, before the grid.

Team Clueless, Captain
this reminds me of a joke

After a long career, Jim wanted to get away from it all to live a secluded life. He found a cabin for sale. It was next to a lake, about 40 miles away from town. "Just perfect", Jim thought. He'd go to get groceries once a month, the only time he sees other humans. A few years passed and one day, Jim heard a knocking on his door. A man dressing in rugged mountaineer clothes was standing outside.
- "Yes?" Jim asked.
- "Excuse me, friend" - said the stranger. "I'm Robert, I live about 2 hours of walking distance from you. I'm hosting a Christmas party this year, would you like to come?"
- "I guess I'll go" - said Jim, after thinking how long it'd been since he was at a party.
- "I should warn you will be some dancing" - said Robert
- "Not a problem"
- "And I should warn you there might be some kissing" - said Robert
- "I guess I'm fine with that"
- "And maybe some sex involved".
- "That's fine, I guess."
- "Well alright then! See you on Christmas!".

- "Say, what kind of an attire should I wear?" - Jim asked as Robert was walking away

- "That's up to you. There'll be just you and me at the party."

Made me think of this - the whole thing shows up on PBS or tv occasionally
