honestly, i'm loving the altitude and the sparse population alone, having good gun laws is weighing heavy towards wyoming as well... i was uncertain because i knew texas was good but then i looked at texas high altitude terrain and it's just as dry and shitty, and colorado is shitty for guns, and afaik nevada is shitty for guns as is new mexico... so it's now firmly in the lead for my choice, as is Rock Springs and Green River
i'm just gonna try and pick out a reasonable spot to land in and set up, and get myself my legits and a vehicle (probably a motorcycle) and roam a lot to see what is around and follow my heart
