I know how vast the west is. I travel from Washington State to Ohio and North Dakota to Louisiana. I also know how many people there are in the cities.

You say you're setting this up for the extended period. Unless you plan on secreting an enormous amount of gasoline or diesel your generators are going to run out of fuel. At that point those generators are nothing but scrap to be melted and used for something else. Got blacksmithing experience?
At some point people will be looking. 20 days you say? That means the ones that eventually will make it out to your neck of the woods will be the really nasty ones that survived or a group that is cooperating. More than likely with someone that knows what they're doing.

20 days in your extended time period is a drop in the bucket.

Not trying to downgrade your experience or planning. Just trying to play Devil's advocate.

What is the alternative?

You aren’t offering me anything. Better than being within 10 days of the city and I have somewhere I can go to from that point.

It is fine to advocate something else, just don’t know what it is.

No, for the most part I am using windmills and not fuel based generators.
