3 is my checkin number. Hello 👋 Curtis. I really enjoyed your live adlib stream . You safe from any fires ? As much as I want to come visit BC ,I think conditions change to quickly for me to feel safe right now. Maybe towards September when things settle down.
It’s all good. There’s been fires every year since I was born here.

Minden Nv right here i am so grateful God almighty moved me and my daughter out of sacramento. HUGE DIFFERENCE
I hear the Ranchos in crummy now days.
@@MillesMedia this place is nothing compared to where I’m from in terms of crime ridden or Ghetto.. To me this is the land of milk and honey lol I can now rest and raise my daughter in a much better place.
I live in Nevada, so I can give some insights to people looking here.
over 80% of Nevada is federal BLM (Bureau of Land Management) land, so you won’t be able to homestead somewhere in the desert without trying to get the feds to agree to sell you land. So you’re locked into existing towns that already had private property from before the existence of BLM.
As for Water, According to our state water engineer, we have the LEAST amount of SURFACE water out of any state in the union.
But we do have the MOST water in our subterranean aquifers out of any state. Due to the fact that Nevada used to be a giant land locked ocean.
So don’t try to homestead anywhere near Vegas since they are pumping the water out faster than the natural aquifer can replenish.
There are some places you can homestead, but you’re really going to have to put in the work.
And we don’t have soil, we have dirt. You want to grow anything, you will need to build up soil and water water water everything on drip lines.
Fruit trees need water, more than people realize, because in most states, you get rain and you don’t have to think about it, Nevada gets very little rain.
My sister in law from Georgia doesn’t understand why we need to water trees. Because trees just grow in Georgia without needing to be on an irrigation system.
Also, Nevada has over 300 mountain ranges, so a lot of the land is on hills, and difficult to cultivate.
Nevada is also very hot and windy in the summer. And with so little vegetation, the dust and dirt get everywhere. You can’t escape dust.
I don’t blame anyone for choosing another state to be more independent for homesteading, as NV’s landscape does not make it easy.
But NV is my home and I love it.
If you do live near Reno, the Truckee Valley and surrounding valley’s are beautiful. Access to a lot of great entertainment venues, Skiing/snowboarding in Lake Tahoe. hundreds of miles of hiking trails in the Sierra’s and 4×4 off-road trails. A lot of overlanding trails out in the desert.
Clear night skies (outside of Reno and Vegas) clean air.
Respect to you. Soil is quite different than dirt.
I left Vegas a few years ago. One of the worst cities to be in when SHTF. There are some interesting places in northern Nevada to go to get away from it all.
I love this series
I also live in Nevada and agree with @cybernoid001. Although where I am is only 1 acre on the edge of a small town I am managing to grow a garden, fruit trees, berry bushes and raise chickens. What I have found to be extremely helpful is creating shade. I have put privacy cloth on my fencing to create shade for the food forest and the chickens. I have a very large Cottonwood tree that gives a sweeping shade throughout the hot afternoon so not all of the garden is hit at the same time. I have EVERYTHING on dripline with timers. As we have a well I don’t pay for water either. It can be done, just takes work and being strategic.
I regret not planting elms for a windbreak/shade as soon as i bought my 1 acre of course dune sand. Not the loveliest of trees but they grow just about anywhere and they give the garden the relief it so desperately needs in this hot dry climate.
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
Could you take a look into Idaho, or Montana please? Thank you
Nevada checking in. There are a few of us!
Off-grid, well, RO system to process water, flat 10 acres. Close to town. It’s not too bad!
Having lived in Nevada and driven all over it; you hit the nail on the head.
Look at the Hebrew Strongs, meaning of the words in the kjv.
I’d love to see what you find in Mississippi
kudos to actually pronouncing Nevada correctly, most people in the Union cant. Coming from a guy who has grown up in rural Nevada, Google maps doesn’t do the state much justice. There are plenty of green areas with springs and creeks tucked away from the major freeways and highways with great potential to be homesteads. Unfortunately, the land is rugged and unforgiving to those with little experience in high desert living. As mentioned in other comments, the trouble is most of those wet places are either already privately owned or it is federally owned.
I like how no one likes it, no one wants to come take it away from me. Big plus
Nevada is Beautiful in its own way, and I would love to have a small cabin there someday. However…. you are setting yourself up for a much more serious challenge in most of the state than in Idaho or Colorado.
It’s the driest state in the usa. It is so over priced it’s actually quite sad. There is some really good land here of course if you can afford it. If you buy cheap land you have to still have money to get to it and get the machinery to put in the work to make the land better. I suggest a green house cause late freezes in spring and early frosts in the fall are very normal. A 60 degree temperature difference in a single day is totally normal. I personally and looking to move to West Virginia. If I had money I’d stay in Nevada.
