The Boonies

In today's technology driven world, those looking to escape society must go where no else thinks to look. From underground caves in Arkansas to the mountaintops of Idaho, some go to the extreme lengths and places, redefining "off the grid."

On the edge of the world, even the most solitary must rely on a few trusted allies to endure. For those who choose this life, a little help can go a long way.

For some, finding peace of mind means hiding out where no else thinks to look…but that solitude can come at a high cost. Those who choose to live outside the grid must adapt to a constant barrage of obstacles. They must find a means to overcome, or find themselves without the resources to endure.

Life off the grid provides freedom, but that independence doesn’t come easy. Whether it’s finding food, stocking the medicine cabinet, or battling the elements, life in the Boonies requires a daily dose of sweat and blood.

For those choosing to live a life of solitude, there’s always work to be done. Whether it’s protecting your home from intruders or preparing for Mother Nature’s worst, every day presents a new challenge to tackle.

Outside the grid, nothing is given and everything must be earned. One’s existence is built from the ground up with two hands, blood, and sweat. The work is hard, but for those who choose this path, a job well done means a life well lived.
