Finally a good fucking thread.

True. I live in Arizona and it has to be the most boring place ever.

>>508538728 (OP)
No the city is the inhospitable shithole this is paradise in tranquility

I drove thru Flagstaff area one time and it was majestque.

>>508538728 (OP)
Ev'ry tyne you go out to 4 peaks you figure out a new way to burn it Jose.
That's why it's like that.

Deserts are easy to survive if you know that deserts rules. There's food, year round with bursts often in Spring and Fall. Dig if you want out of the heat, get underground away from a flood area. Drowning is the main cause of accidental death in the desert. Insects are severe at night. Ball lightning is fucking real. Water is found in springs and cacti. Snakes and lizards are good eating. Deer and rabbits/hares are fine if handled with care and cooked well. Traps work well. Learn how to avoid stings and bites. My experience is mostly The Mojave growing up. And a bit as an adult in NTC, some as OPFOR. Devils claws fried in animal fat and/or butter is one my favorites. Had some last night as I grow them easily in my Central Texas garden. Learn to recognize both dumb and aggressive rabies in mammals. Agarita is a good friend. Prickly pears are big stands of potato sacks once you learn how to handle and prepare the paddles. The paddles are year round. Devils claws from June to September. Agarita branches are year round, but the fruit is only in May sometimes a bit into June. Rabbits are dangerous, lots of bad parasites. Handle with care and cook well. Armadillos only if desperate. They indeed carry leprosy and taste disgusting. Greasy, gamey, bleh. Avoid jumping cholla. Or carefully collect them as a horrifying area denial weapon.. Trust me, it's effective.

They are OUR shitholes, so stay the fuck out.

>>508538728 (OP)
No. shitholes are not a measure of difficult geography, they're a label applied to the people living there.

North is better desu but I'm stuck in Phoenix, and it is pain.

>>508538728 (OP)
Where would 30% of the world population live today if air-cons were never invented?

>>508538728 (OP)
ayylmao

That's the opposite of where I live. At least my skin is moist.

>>508538728 (OP)
>>508538995
YEAH THIS. THOSE CACTI ARE SUS AS FUCK!

>>508540693
What's there to do in Phoenix other than challenge yourself to stay out of the heat? The road system is a giant grid.. Just that curve in the freeway going east/west. L.A. is weirdly close.. Everybody runs red lights.. What the fuck is up with that? University of Phoenix area seems gay. The military surplus shops are better than the ones I have here in Texas. Y'all don't have fences out in the desert I noticed.. If a person just decides to off road out of town, is it just ignored or does some pissed off rancher get mad you put tracks in his dry ass sand? Who owns those stubby mountains just outside of town?

>>508540743
We lived in deserts even before acs

>>508540829
That's tundra or ice self on the right.. Means that water is fucking cold...

>>508538995
You took the words out of my mouth. Wish I had saved it.

>>508538728 (OP)
Don't you mean uninhabitable?

>>508541459
I thought it was all fake and gay

>>508541432
It's a glacier and the water is super cold.

>>508538728 (OP)
Yeah, they're the niggers of climates. White men live in temperate climates with lush grass and forests and an abundance of natural bodies of water.

>>508540743
The same places, mostly. People lived in jungles and deserts long before there was air conditioning. Some cities like Phoenix might not be as big as they were, with some Eastern seaboard cities absorbing that population instead. But it wouldn't really change anything significantly .

>>508541539
Looked real to me but since it was getting lots and lots of reposts for a couple days there I didn't think I would have to save it.

>>508538728 (OP)
There's gold and silver in the desert, and peyote.

>>508538728 (OP)
what kind of stupid ass question is that

rocks are hard and not soft to the touch by definition? why are they not soft like dirt?

>>508538995
That is the original

One time I drove to Desert Hot Springs, CA in July. By the time I got to my destination my flip flops that I left out in my truck bed curled onto themselves and turned into a ball. The climate blew me the fuck away. I was even scared to get in the pool just in case it was actually boiling. And these are 'posed to be resorts that people swear by.

>>508542476
It's just a bit of heat

>Wish I had saved it.
My phone bricked about a week after I saved it. I was retarded and had the entire system split between internal and SD storage so it all corrupted but anyway.

>>508541325
It's a boring hellscape of golf courses and shitty strip malls as far as the eye can see .It's so boring the only "fun" thing to do is drink yourself to death and do meth. The sprawl is so comical it takes 45 mins to an hour to go do "fun activates". But that doesn't matter since there's a bunch of tweakers and Mexicans everywhere.

>>508538728 (OP)
Hey that's 4 peaks I climbed to the top of that bitch. Browns peak

>>508538995

>>508543100
>Browns peak
This nigga really went there

>>508538728 (OP)
There's actually a lot of food in the desert. It's water that's a problem. But there are lots of springs on the mountains you can find if you have a map.

>>508538728 (OP)
I got ya.

>>508540470
you sound far out and likeable

>>508541596
Nice. The ocean can't be far, and cold water saltwater fish are the best. All that humidity is coming from somewhere.

>>508538728 (OP)
They are habitable.

You have to learn to adjust.

See Vegas, Phoenix, or Texas.

Thanks, my wife and kids tell me that as well.. But I literally have no friends anymore at 52. They've all moved away, drifted away and yeah, died. I had literally dozens of friends from childhood into my early 40's.. Then I just stopped making any new ones, and well.. I don't mind, more time for the garden, my own shooting range, hunting. This place, my knife making and blacksmith shop.. My two sons are interested in helping and doing their own similar projects with me.. My daughter goes on more hunting trips with me than my two sons combined. Wife and I still close after 26 years. Kek! Maybe that's why.. I'm happy enough so I don't feel much like leaving home that much. Semiretired, run a cattle and meat sheep operation. 270+ acres near a Central Texas river. I haven't been off this property since March so far this year. I get money leasing a cell tower on a hill, now we're 5G. A highway a little over a mile from that tower on my property edge is the intended service. But it brings this place a bit into the 21st century.

>>508540829
Nice

They are spiritual and the desolation is cleansing and hardening.
If you can not live in the desert, you can not live, if you can live in the desert, you can live forever.
California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Utah, and Nevada have the holy deserts.

how is this political. Is this forest propaganda? How much do the (((Mountains))) pay you per post.

>>508538728 (OP)
Deserts are temporary, an ecological transition from a previous cycle

>>508538728 (OP)
That's why nearly all desert civilization is found near watercourses.

Same. It sucks. Nobody should move here.
