I had looked at something like 20 acres in Oregon for 15k up in the higher mountain area.  Have to be careful how an area is zoned.  The one I was looking at was zoned agriculture, so the only permanent structure I could put on it would be something like an open floor barn.  But I would look for a bug out property in WA or OR before I'd look for one in ID!

price of land.  And it seems that Idaho is where everyone's air craps.  Cleaner air to the west

But it's also closer to nuclear fall out if that were to happen (unlikely I know, but so is the SHTF) from Seattle or Portland... though...
what part of OR/WA were you looking in? The Wallawas (sp?) are beautiful, with lots of ponds everywhere if you're in the right area.

What are we going to do when the Yellowstone super volcano erupts?

If they build the new reactor in Bruneau staying away from the west becomes moot.

 The answer is NO we have lots of different area to go to
water on canals, different rivers with channels to setup
diversions to meet needs and lots of wind to go with.....
