My brother bought a fishing cabin like this down by you last year. But It has other trailers on lots nearby, and isn't quite as isolated as yours sounds. Only problem I have with it.... snakes!
But the whole procedure gave me some thoughts last year about building a cabin along the lines of your plan there. Fishing/Hunting shack with TEOTWAWKI or at least TSHTF capabilities.
I'm really curious what you stocked up on. I was thinking of the following (security is obviously an issue):
1) Solar Charge/windmill/Battery configuration which could power emergency devices such as HAM, lighting, water filtration & pump, etc.
2) Emergency Water - large cistern?
3) woodburning stove and chopped wood
4) Backup kerosene heat with decent supply
5) Small Gasoline tank kept topped off
6) Foodstuffs
7) weapons and ammo
Other standard survival goods and procedures (fire ready to light!)...
Anyone have ideas on securing some equipment that can be left behind? My grandfather used to have a diesel tank above ground but I know a buried one with hidden hand pump would be better.
If you aren't checking the supplies that often, how do you keep your gear safe? A couple of adult BOBs can run some cash if someone decides to trash your place and steal you safety line.
I'd like to hear from some folks here with real-world experience keeping such a place from roving delinquent marauders. <img src="/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
