This weekly column features news stories and event announcements from around the American Redoubt region. [1] (Idaho, Montana, eastern Oregon, eastern Washington, and Wyoming.) Much of the region is also more commonly known as The Inland Northwest. We also mention companies located in the American Redoubt region that are of interest to preppers and survivalists. Today, I’m offering an eclectic assortment of videos from inside the American Redoubt region. These describe and show geography, historical tidbits, amazing scenery, wildlife, and some genuine characters. Pictured above is Salmon, Idaho, circa 1940.
