I found this recent June 2022 article from a Chicago city woman visiting out in my region. I live along the Grand Mesa highway that she describes. Maybe if she had broken down I could have helped her out in my microkini g-string by fixing her rental car.

"Houses dotting the edges of mountains, seemingly alone in the isolated wilderness, left me perplexed. How or why did people choose to live in such total isolation? Wasn’t it scary? Difficult to get material goods? What if you needed to go to the hospital? I hadn’t seen anything close to looking like a hospital.
I wondered about those people. Were they antisocial? Maybe a little crazy? They must be, right? I surely could never live so alone, or at least, that’s what I thought then."
