I know that this subject has not been active for a while, but I have a question. In conversations with the wife, who does not have the same idea of being nude as I do, she has been told that if someone see's me nude outside, that they can sue us 'for everything that we have' according to her. Now our place is at the end of the road, with heavy woods/under growth, no house with in about 600ft and they can not be seen when the leaves are out. Myself and some friends that also like being nude, do not believe this but....
Anyone have any thoughts/experience with this?

Hi N in AK. The law varies from state to state. AK may have some of the most restircitive anti-nudity laws in the US. Nudist resorts are criminal in AK. However, on your own land where you don't have an expecton to see other people then its not illegal. As for being sued, anyone can sue anyone but not win. To win a lawsuit the offended neighbor or passing hiker would have to show "damages." How much is the monitary cost to someone who sees a human body? Probably not much. If you were doing something indecent and if someone saw you, and IF they were caused some economic damages they might be able to sue to recover their damages. But I would guess that it would be VERY hard to prove monitary damages. Was he traumatized so much that he had to see a shrink for years or go to a mental hospital after seeing a human body? I doubt it.

gnarlyoldman; thanks for the site and yes Alaska can be restrictive. When the leaves are all out, trying to see into our place is difficult to say the least. There are places that if one works at it, they can into our place, but would really need to look.

Sometimes, it really seems this country has gone "lawsuit crazy"...just to add another view (no pun intended) here in Oklahoma..being seen nude can lead to an indecent exposure citation.....but...if one is within a private yard...and the offended person had to make an effort to see you nude....then they were breaking the law and could be cited for "peeping"..

I'm sorry. I mistook "AK" for Arkansas when its really Alaska.
Here is a photo of my naked adventures in Alaska. This is the Dalton highway a few miles south of Deadhorse.
I'm sure you can find fun places to go naked in Alaska. There is so much land and so few people.

Yes there some places that their are few people and I do get to enjoy being nude. I just would like to be able to be nude at home, outside more.
As far as the picture of you, how much insect repellant did you have on?

Not much bug repeller that day. We were headed back south toward Fairbanks. We just stopped to take a photo. You can just make out some oil rig towers in Deadhorse on the horizon. It was cold and windy that day so the bugs weren't too bad. My skin is red from the cold wind. We did use quite a bit when camping out, and mosquito netting.
Lots of places have mosquitos though.
What part of Alaska do you live? Seems like there must be plenty of good places to go naked even near some of the towns. Not sure of your back yard though. Maybe there are pesky neighbors.

We live in 'South Central', in the Palmer area. Yes there are a couple trails that I can use, mostly during the work week. There seems to be fewer people then, which suits me just fine. There are also a couple places that we can take the motor home, that is visited by few people. I have been able to sit outside at some of these places and relax in the nude and not be bothered.

Thank goodness for an enclosed deck with tinted sliders! Living in a neighborhood it's the perfect way to be outside without clothes. Of course it has to be warm and wife also enjoys the set up. Wall mounted TV and dining area makes for great mornings and evenings together. Would be nice to enjoy more freedom but thankful for what we have!

Nice to see this post active again. I happen to have very busy body neighbors and they can see into my large backyard through some openings in the shrubbery that just don't seem to fill in. My back door is in clear view to my rear neighbor, but I do go out naked to put garbage in the cans and to get to my protected spot. The covenants require that boats and RVs be behind a 6' fence. I have a large area that I can lay out in the sun or work on my boat or my antique camper. Things could be worse.

I have a better setup to use my deck for sunning this year. Still can't walk around but once I lay down, I can take the shorts off. I have to set it up every time I want to use it and the neighbors are probably wondering what I'm doing, but no one has asked yet. I hope they do...good way to get the conversation going about Nude sunbathing.

I have two two story homes overlooking my backyard but years ago we talked to the neighbors and told them we are not very modest and they may see us. I am out in the backyard in full view of their houses at least once a day talking care of our pool, sunning, etc. They do not care and I have checked the local laws, indecent exposure requires being nude AND lewd here. I think most of the issues that nudists have and are afraid of are self inflicted or have to do with the local culture. I really believe the most people do not care as long as you are just going about normal life and not being lewd. Of course there is also being respectful of neighbors. There are also others that freak out and local cultures that are a lot more restrictive but that just goes back to the vocal minority driving the way people live.

We have several two story homes surrounding us. We are most concerned with our next door neighbors but they've lived there a few years now. They are still cordial and friendly toward us but seem to keep to themselves quite a bit.
The other two story homes may have seen me/us naked in the backyard but I suspect that they either don't care, have called the cops but the cops asked ... "what is/are he/she/they doing?" When they tell them we're doing yard work, playing on our artificial putting green or walking back and forth to the trash bins, cleaning our backyard ... the cops must not care of be concerned.
We also live in CA, Southern Cal and I've looked everywhere for laws being more specific than the one FullSun speaks of and I've found nothing. I suspect that is why we've been able to live the way we do and we've never been approached by the cops or our neighbors.
Loves being naked. Plays well with others!
