>>2838506>Where can I do this,Rural Alaska, particularly native villages that are cut off from the road system.
>and how should I prepare?>LocationPick a village with a low crime rate, ideally one with a VPSO but no VPOs or TPOs. That makes sure that the tweakers stay in check, but you're not being badgered by some faggot at the behest of the tribal council.
Research which villages are cool with whatever ethnicity you are. There's one village near Anchorage that straight up ran two white families out and stole their houses. Nothing really got done about it. Make sure you don't move to some cartoonishly racist village.
>SustenanceMost villages love violating hunting regulations, so as long as you're not stupid you'll be able to hunt all you want. Some really native villages have a "your first moose kill goes to the village elders" rule, so just avoid letting anyone know if you get one. Net fishing is the go-to in the village, and you can get all you need for the year in just a few months. Smoke it or find a way to keep it frozen and you have food all year. Get a botanical field guide to help with herb and berry identification.
>Environmental considerationsIf you're on the Cook Inlet, you'll have decent weather comparatively but a lot of the land is marshy. Mosquitoes are already bad here, they're much worse along the inlet. If you're in the interior, you better have a SOLID insulation setup and some way to keep your shelter airtight. It is currently -40 in some parts of the interior. If you're on an island like the Aleutians or anything directly facing the Pacific ocean, you will need to be prepared for tsunamis. And volcanoes. And typhoons, I guess.
