RE: And inverter system comparison of AC power generation, for homestead use.
Must have been a little birdie, LOL. It is a common discussion in prepping, but they never go far enough. I want enough to feed me for months just laying around.
There is a lot of corp land around the lake. It is public land, and accessible; and a great place to raise a lot of spare food....
The seaberries (Sea Buckthorne) are hearty in the cold, and have 100 times the levels of vitamin c that an orange has. Plan to plant sunflowers for eats and oil; I may put those on an island, because someone might recognize them.

An island? What island? Yeah it would be pretty hard not to recognize a sunflower.
Keystone lake is Large lake, one island is 60 acres by itself (a trail park for motorcycles), LOL! Lots of small ones by themselves....
:)>wow. Is that man made?
Yes, with a BIG damn dam, LOL! It is a V shaped lake, north leg is about 70 miles long, south leg is 55 miles long. Big enough that it has it's own map, and a major hydroelectric generator station. They lost three or four towns to the lake, when they built it. The old highway became two extra boat loading ramps, on opposite sides of the lake.
The dam is about 25 miles east by boat from the new property. Made in the early 1060s, and VERY full with all this rain (bump those dimensions by 25%). A lot of drinking water, LOL.
:)>oh, I thought you were right by the lake. Well that's along way from it if all transportation is down or the highways are blocked for some reason. That lake with those two long legs provide alot of miles of shoreline for homes unless they aren't building along the lake.
I can hit the lake with a pellet gun, LOL! It goes another 40+ miles past me. Several miles wide there too, should be good fishing! My Sister lives on the south fork of the lake, but if I go by boat, it is about 60 miles one way....
All the shore is Corp land (recently flooded, LOL) I am about as close as you can get to the water! May need a sailboat.
:)>oh I thought you said your new place was 25 miles from the lake. Maybe you should learn to type what you're thinking like your liberal friend was doing.
Nope 25 mile from the
dam, on the north shore of the north leg of the lake.It is a BIG lake, LOL!
