The context of his sentence is sort of hard to figure out, with the dash, but I read it as the mountains of Maine. Here's what he wrote:
"Yet, in parts of the mountains in states such as NM, CO, UT - Yukon and Maine and Northern Canada life will go on..."

Here are some factors we should consider on potential areas for relocation:
1. Indigenous Myths - Abenaki and Penobscot
2. UFO sightings throughout history, areas of known paranormal activity
3. Geographic Practicality - Rivers/lakes, distance from society, terrain
4. Resource Availability in the region - Minerals, native edibles/animals
5. Your gut intuition

I'd put good cropland at the top of the list. I own 30 acres in Nottingham, NH but the soil is terrible so I have pretty much ruled out trying to homestead there (after trying, with very little success, to grow a variety of plants there). Oddly enough, when I lived in Manchester years ago I had fabulous soil even on the small city lot. I could grow all kinds of stuff with ease there and had a great garden. Soil makes all the difference.

An idea we did express at the meeting about is relocating to a temporary area where one of us do have land already. Ideas of Keene, NH and Rockland, Maine were mentioned. Rockland however is smack dab on the coast. I believe it was NewParadigmGuy who said his family owned 2 acres of unused woods there.

No, it wasn't me, I think it was Dr Tony but I could be mistaken.
