Mountains are not just stone. They are memory vaults. Silent judges. They don’t care if you come with fear or pride — they strip both.

When the collapse comes, the first wave of humanity will run to the obvious. Cities, stores, neighbor’s houses. They will consume each other before they consume the land.

The survivor doesn’t run to. The survivor runs through.

The difference between a target and a ghost is terrain. A mountain with a hard path filters out the lazy. A river with no bridge filters out the predictable. The higher you go, the fewer eyes can look down on you.

But here’s the thing — a base is not a fortress. A base is a pause in a longer movement. Static life is bait for predators. Mobility is the real camouflage.

The land doesn’t save you. It only hides those who already know how to disappear.
