That’s all part of the plan. An effective survival retreat is indistinguishable from the homes nearby. But the survivalists are there, learning to live off the land and to defend themselves and their families. They are loosely knit but share a common conviction: they expect collapse. It could be from nuclear war or from governmental break down, maybe due to another oil embargo or runaway inflation. These survivalists are in southern Oregon — reportedly several thousand of them, most ly in a 20-mile radius in the Grants Pass-Rogue River area — for several reasons. Bob McQuain, a survivalist and Grants Pass Realtor of the Year for 1982, explained why the group chose southern Oregon: “Southern Oregon appeals because of its mild weather con ditions, no extreme hot or cold or rain and good climactic sea sons for growing. Rogue River is five hours by car from Portland and seven from San Francisco, too far for urban refugees to make it on one tank of gasoline if collapse occurs. The area also is regarded by some experts as the satestin United States. Government reports on effects of nuclear exchange mate that this little podei southern Oregon wouldbedi of radiation within 48 hoi giving a chance of survivalwil out fallout shelters.

It is not cheap to be a sunt alist. McQuain, who works contract to seek out propertfi said, “A good, average minifal or mini-ranch and you’re loot ing at $100,000 to $150,000.’ He said minifarms average to 10 acres and include ajM ranch house, barn, outbuild' ings, pasture, fruit trees, spots and good water.
