I would love it as long as I was safe from humans because the animals won't hurt you. Several years ago, I read that several members of the Mohawk Nation in Upstate New York had returned to the wilderness to be one with nature.

it is the best experience that one can have. once a friend remarked to me that how could there be a place without mobile phone connectivity. it took a lot of convincing to put across that even today there are places where the mobile cannot reach you, try visiting such places and if you can help it( finance, family ties, children, social obligations etc) you would never want to return to the tech savvy world that we have all got so caught up in. nature just takes away the tension from your life and one feels calm and fulfilled with God's wonderful creations around you.

More or less I do. I have electricity and modern conveniences though. For many years I got my water out of a spring fed creek. (I have city water now) I live miles from the nearest town of 300. I can not see any body or any building from my place. Sometimes at night I can see the glow from the lights from the nearest town of any size, 30 miles away.
I live in the forest in the mountains. I would not trade it for anything. Often wild animals come in my yard ( I call it yard it is all trees.) and on my porch. I have seen every wild animal that lives in my state here around my house.
It is good to live off the land as much as possible. Gardening, hunting & fishing.
Sometimes I go for days without seeing any body other than my family.
I don't sleep outside. lol The critters keep me up at night, they are to noisy.

Yeah, well grizzly bears will be happy to see you. As their habitat continually disappears, so does their food source and you'd be a tasty morsel. I'd enjoy being out in the woods for a while, but not for long. You should watch the Nature channel more often. You'll see that life in the wilderness ain't a picnic (and sometimes neither is a picnic).

most animals wont hurt you. polar bears and grizzly bears are no threat if you dont live where they do. there is a lot of wilderness with no dangerous animals. i grew up at the edge of near-wilderness, and lived in the woods miles from the nearest humans. deer, chipmunks, squirrels, rabbits, ground squirrels all get to trust you, even to like you,l pretty quickly. black bears will rarely bother you, same for cougars, wolves, wolverines.... if you have animals come to visit you, its not lonely. my big problem was walking 16 miles or so to the nearest little town, to get groceries, mail, etc. and in the winter i couldnt do it, it was just too hard.

This might come as a surprise but but animals will hurt you. Yes though, I do like living in the wilderness, surrounded by nature.

I been in the wild. It has bugs. Have you ever been wet and cold for days on end. That's not so fun. Animals are animals, and they will hurt you.
I love nature, and the natural world. I also love my warm house, none the less for having slept on the cold, wet, hard ground. Beds are really nice too. They are made in factories and those are supported by cities. So I guess I like Cities and factories too.

I visit the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness annually and stay in a cabin. Being out there refreshes my mind. I love it. I don't know that I could live there full time though...I am too high maintenance for that. And interesting story about a woman who did live in the wildnerness for her entire life...."The Root Beer Lady" by Bob Cary.

When I was younger, I would have loved it. Now, I like having a nearby grocery, doc, and police. As for the thinking that animals won't hurt you, read any newspaper of a suburb and count the number of people gored by deer, mauled by bear or cougar, bitten by everything from bats to foxes, sprayed in the eyes by skunks, chomped by snakes, stung by hornets,invaded by bees, dive-bombed by birds, and cut by a fish, and get back to me on the peaceful world.

Animals won't hurt you? Are you dense? Yogi bear was a very docile creature, not a real bear. A wolverine will do more damage to you quicker than you can blink, hyenas are the scavengers of the animal world but they still attack humans, and wolves hunt in packs so they can take just about anything down.

If I can derive electricity from nature, then I guess it would be fine to stay away from humans for a while.... but, by the time I be one with nature I would have to attend the exams, which are nearing in fast.
