Hey Highlander! I wonder how many preppers will have selected your remote area as their BOL and move in in droves? There would be plenty of like-minded at least...

Always a possibility, but more unlikely, if they dont already have stores up here they are not going to eat,..ok so its possible they could establish something, but would they live long enough to be strong enough to do it

If they have to get here by foot, they are not going to do it, too remote for that, and Rannoch Moor and Glen Coe is a hell of a barrier to cross,.. then they still have days of walking before getting to us

During the 1800s even lowland Scots avoided this are, unless you are a good stalker there is nothing to eat, its also the wettest part of the uk, so that is also against them

I think that anyone who can live in this area after tshtf is going to be someone who knows the area very well, and who can live off it,... not just come here because its remote and they think they will be safe
