Egress: Should bad guys come, or snow, or flood, can you get out several different ways? Would you be trapped by deep mud? Can someone fly in to you maybe? Such as in Colorado, mountains to one side and your property faces east leaves few egress avenues if need be in the winter time.

Growing season: Say all is well, the birds are chirping, the wind is breezy, and the sun is shining...can you grow some food? Is the soil rich enough or can you make a nice garden? Is it too treed, or maybe too barren? Is there enough water? Maybe a good well or a running creeek or river nereby?

It is pretty good as far as egress, but this spot wouldn’t be one I would want to flee from.

The wind is almost constant, that is the reason for the wind power, but sometimes the wind will be in excess of 145mph, little worried that your typical cabin won’t be able to stand up to that.

Going to look at what the locals use though for protection.

Actually thinking about not putting any windows in the house and only screens that won’t break or require maintenance with insulated shutters.
