Hello Friends. Welcome to A Remote Western Town.
A Remote Western Town chronicles life in- simply put- a remote western American town. This blog does not support nor oppose any cause, does not serve to judge anyone, and does not romanticize nor insult the American West. It merely attempts to present objectively, life in a remote western town.
To give you some background on A Remote Western Town (population 2,000), I’ll start with the landscape. The elevation is roughly 7,200 feet above sea level. It is a high plains desert, where sagebrush clings to unwelcoming soil in the shadow of 12,000 foot mountain peaks. A Remote Western Town is over 100 miles from the nearest freeway and rail system, and nearly that far to the closest hospital. This is a place where the wind and cold have swept for eons, where inhabitants must rely on one another, and where cattle is king. Formidable. Inhospitable. Beautiful. Remote.
