Well at least we wont make that mistake again.
After landing at the airport,
we had 3 hours to retrieve bags
buy food, and get additional tools.
Eventually, the seemingly only
taxi in the city arrived.
Pressed for time and conscious of the bush plane’s
weight restrictions, we purposefully decided
against a chainsaw, and accidentally shorted
ourselves of vital food supplies.
We had filled large and medium sized bags
with food thinking it would be enough...
It was not.
This is our story.
Aug03. Landed at lake. Realized extent of mosquitoes. Began rucking the 400lbs of gear to property. Only made it 1 mile due to difficult marsh terrain and unmarked/ overgrown trails.
Aug04. Re-cut old trail towards property (0.5 mile). Made camp and marked out a spot for the cabin.
Aug05. Rucked back to lake and filled our 5 gal containers with water. Light rain. Began clearing land of small brush.
Aug06. Heavy rain. Cleared large trees from site. Made hammers, tool shed, bench.
Aug07. Began falling trees for footers. Dug holes and burned logs for longevity.
Aug08. Slept in due to rain. We placed first base log, however it wasn't level so we'll have to redo longer footers tomorrow.
Aug09. Re-did footers. Fell more base logs.
Aug10. All 4 base logs are on. We realized that we'll have to get much smaller logs now. Moving the last log 100ft took 2 hours, and our energy is already low. Food rationing has started.
Aug11. We both hit the wall today and had to stop working. Bushwhacked to lake. Wade fishing. No luck. Found canoe for tomorrow however.
Aug12. Canoe fishing. Caught 5 pike. Found Lingonberries. Good day.
Aug13-16. Notching and placing wall logs.
Aug17. Halfway! Water ruck and fishing. No fish. Down to 800cal per day.
Aug18-22. Finished walls. Finally
Aug23. Fishing today. 3 pike. More berries. Great nap.
Aug24. Awoke to the howling of wolves this morning. Placed side roof walls. Fell more trees for running beams. Down to 4~600cal per day.
Aug25. Awoken by hunger this morning. Dreamed of Cookies. Secured side walls with trusses.
Aug26. Best day of the trip so far. Good progress on the roof. Spam Friday. Sat around fire with music and coffee.
Aug27. Placed ridge beams on cabin. Realized lack of nails will be an issue. "X" braced roof.
Aug28. Couldn't sleep well from hunger last night. Secured tarps and pine branches to the roof.
Aug29. Hardest day. Heavy rain last night. Water bucket fell over. Cutting and placing moss from 0.2 miles away was brutal. Then that afternoon we had to trek to the lake for water.
Aug30. Time has come to a standstill these final days. Finished mossing the roof while Cody worked on the door. Got a squirrel today too. Ate bones and all.
Aug31. Our bodies crave fats. All our thoughts are of food. Secured cabin base with logs.
Sep01. Clayed the base and finished the door. Placed flag pole and raised the colors. Its done.
Sep02. Took down flags. Packed up camp. Secured the door. Rucked out with a quarter of the gear we came in with. Flew out. Ate till we puked.
Thank you so much for watching. We plan to go back next fall and finish the rest of it.

I did this 20 years ago. I used chainsaws cuz I wasn't that tough. Still don't pay property tax cuz my place was built from beetle kill spruce. Alaska still respects homesteaders. I drive 30 miles into town everyday so I can work and contribute back to society. Tough keeping up on chores, but the old men tell me it has kept me out of trouble. 20 years no locks on my doors.

It's all Federally Owned Undeveloped Land. You can technically buy cheap land in Alaska. Or you just build out in the sticks. No one us going to bother you. Thousands of Acres with no one around. How do you think the West was settled? It was basically first come first serve. The land is yours, but you have ro develop it. I mean what the hell is the Federal Government going to do with some land hundreds miles away from any sort of if civilization? The Government makes more revenue when people develop the Land. Gotta attract people there some way.

as a 53-year-old carpenter from Ontario. I built my first cabin at 12 years old, by myself, in my local woods. The cabin was 18' x 12', flat roof, covered with 30" x 30" tin...supplied by my grandpa. Did it all with one of my dad's splitting axes.The cabin was made from eight to ten-inch diameter white cedar. I am enjoying this adventure thoroughly

@@markymarc37 Yeah we did. 57 years old. Made a crossbow at 12, from first principles, i.e. we had no such thing as tutorials, I had seen crossbows in comic books. The first one could drive the dowel arrow with six inch nail tip through a inch pine board. The trigger was SUPER touchy, asked an uncle what I was doing wrong. He said "Ummm, the answer is making a crossbow and firing it in the town without training. Come with me" and gave me better gear, and some books, and firm instructions not to shoot anywhere except where there was a backdrop* . He also showed me how to repurpose household things, which was a revelation. You can make an AWESOME trigger from a cupboard catch. * This worked fine, until it didn't.

I've been in construction for 25 years and that was a hell of a lot of work guys. Nicely done. Grab yourself a Vaughn 19oz curved handle califoria framer hammer. Cheap, well made, ergonomically silky and powerful. Field test handle like any wood handled tool before taking it into the bush but I have never had one break. Claw doubles as a pickaroon.

@69jbr69 Год назад

@@swervsplatt9672 Stiletto handles usually fail if you work them hard. Most pro's use a separate hammer for pulling nails/demo if they run a Stiletto. They are alright for repetitive smaller nail application but not much else. Vaughn 19oz curved wood handle cali framer is best all around hammer I have ever found and I have tried pretty much all of them. Only one that beats it is an Estwing solid steel framer, which are basically invincible, but handle design lacks that comfortable end grip, wrist flick crazy power that long curved wood handles deliver. -Rehandled Stiletto-not bad but overrated, still takes an extra swing or two compared to others. -Vaughn 19oz cali framer-Best all around. -Estwing 28oz solid steel framer-Thor's hammer that makes nails, thumb tips and knee caps vanish with one swing. Just leave the 30oz on the rack. They are to powerful.

@69jbr69 Год назад

@@bryanabingart7362 Happy to help and hope you put it to work. They feel a little slippery when new because of handle coating, like most wood handled tools, which quickly fades in normal construction use but you can also do this yourself with a little razor scraping, light sanding and boiled linseed oil treatment. Plenty of tutorials on here to check out and enjoyable to do and make it your own. Again, it is a wood handle and everyone is unique so go power swing it into a 2x4 scrap or something as hard as you can a few times so there are no doubts and it's tested and approved. Than tune the handle up. Vaughan has never let me down but I have had other brands break or heads become lose after this simple test. Than go build that cabin!

@chompers11 Год назад

No one, even the salty old framers around here, use wood handles anymore. Vaughn's fiberglass models are far superior for durability and shock absorption. Wood is outdated tech

@chompers11 Год назад

@@bryanabingart7362 I was responding to the original guys comment. I never said to use power tools.. if you want to break a wooden handle out in the bush by all means go off. He even recommends to field test them because this is an issue. It's the same company and the same tool just slightly evolved to deal with the obvious issues. Feel free to figure it out on your own new guy 🤣 I own multiple of each fyi. Too funny. Imagine thinking a fiberglass hammer is a "tech" or easy answer. Dudes arent even building the handles in the bush like people would back in the day. You dont even know how to talk yo smack right

@69jbr69 Год назад

@@chompers11 Nah, fiberglass is good but in no way superior. Most pro's still prefer solid metal or wood handles and know how to pick ones with preferable grain and test them anyways just in case. Glass is good for repetitive light hitting or heavy shaft splitting mauls/shovels but work it hard with leverage and it will fiber out and turn into a broom. Hell, even miss the nail or wood you're splitting a few times and hit the neck and it will fiber out. I've broke more fiberglass handles than I can remember usually pulling nails and even saw a guy take a hammer head to the face 30 ft away off one of those glass handle grenades when head let loose. I've never used one since I saw that. Plus I work where it can get down to -30. When it's that cold glass hammer handles can simply shatter from minimal use. Wood handles aren't outdated, they are the universal standard proven by 1000's of years of use.

@brettnelson3565 13 дней назад

I'm 61 and on disability myself. Latley I've put a lot of time into exploring gold prospecting and gold mining, which I did my fair share of when I was much younger... I've always been lured and attracted to gold, ever since i got gold fever when i was about 26 living in Northern Cali, in a lttle town called Quincy in Plumas county, on the 3 forks of the feather rivers and many other tributaries, like Spanish creek, Nelson creek, and so many other little creeks bearing gold, all within a stones throw distance in between... I wonder if I can find enough gumption to get after it while I'm still able... not exactly capable of doing everything myself, involved in dropping a shaft, or punching a drift, but I have the spirit... just need to find the right opportunity and perhaps like minded souls that wanna make one last stride to fulfill a dream before getting entirely too old! and wasted away...Btw... I love this video fellas, and the get er done enginuity these fellas display... I totally dig the whole building a beautiful shelter, let alone a sturdy cabin... it is not much different from building a gold mine shaft and drift. This is how the generations before us forged thier ways though the thick of it... it wasn't easy back then, nor is it now, if your not loaded and wealthy. For those of us that weren't born with silver spoons in our mouths, or hanging out our asses,... in order to make it. You pretty much have to be able to carve out your way, and be tougher than nails! You hear these guys wishing they had more nails. Old timers also faced these kind of trials and tribulations... you can only carry so many nails, and tools... the more, the merrier, but there will always be times that you've got to do what you can with what you've got to work with. No matter the circumstances! It is always the the ones at the end of the trail, that took and worked with what they had to work with, and somehow perciveered and won the day... either by making wooden nails... aka... Dowels, or perhaps they knew duck tailing, or any other number of skills that the pioneers of the past presented at the time to move the rest of us forward... Thank God for them! The people that through the ages contributed to making life better for themselves, and then later... all the rest of us who learned from thier knowledge, and even better... thier failures and mistakes. That's what progress looks like. Not everyone is going to be perfect, and make the right decision every time. We learn from mistakes and failures just as much as we learn from success and perfection. Trial and error, is most important, as it guides us away from doom, and despair, and into the light as we do the best we can with what we have to work with... it's not always the the ones that have the best, and the most, and all the money in the world to explore and pay thier way to success! It's the broken back, broke dick mutherhumpers that were tougher than nails, that with thier blood, sweat and tears... found a way, no matter what because, thier lives depended on it. God bless all those who busted and ass to get the project moving forward. I tip my hat, and my glass to all of you. Cheers!

I’m a 72 year old Gospel preacher of 52 years, you young men should be very very very proud, take a bow, raise your hands with a grateful heart and say Thank you Lord. Well done yes well done.

@2807204 Год назад

Love the sense of humour blokes. Amazing team work, congratulations on the build.

@eduardoschiavon5652 Год назад

By the end of the month, it looked like you guys had lost a lot of weight. Reminded me of my army days and of how going through hardships really does build character.

How cool an awesome achievement hand tools and true humour and lots of true grit

@robertritter2046 Год назад

This is so unbelievably cool. Very jealous of the trip and accomplishment. Hoping there is video 2 where we can see more development on the Cabin! Cheers to a killer video

That homemade flagpole and Old Glory flying was an awesome final touch!!! Well done guys! Respect 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

You guys are great, I'm trying this in east texas with a disabled wife and kids, but then again I have a trailer and food within an hours drive. Subscribed. Good job. I was single, id probably ask to join your crew.

@zXWaterPoloXz Год назад

This is some of the most wholesome content I’ve ever seen. Cheers to you guys, y’all deserve it. Hope you guys head back there sometime to make a series out of it. Keep building!

@BitcoinBoomer64 Год назад

Incredible! You guys got a lot accomplished in 30 days!! Can't wait to see what you'll do in the next episode!!

@mrFunkyGod Месяц назад

Keep the humour going lads. It’s a real treat to listen to droll humour keeping your spirits high!

@neilaleksandrov2655 Год назад

Your hard work and tenacity are truly an inspiration to the rest of us... God Bless and hope to see more.

@jamesgibbs8827 Год назад

You guys work well together.. That's going to be an awesome cabin. Smart doing it now while your young and not afraid of Anything in life.. I applaud your Craftsmanship skills and attitude..

You young men did a super job. I'm impressed.

@damiancooper3403 3 месяца назад

Guys, you created something that will be around after I am long gone. Think of what you have done and what will become of your creation for those in the future. Respect.

@OshMax Год назад

this was the perfect mixture of just construction/progress and little quip of banter/commentary from you guys. Really enjoyable to watch

@dawsondavis Год назад

What an amazing accomplishment! I can't wait to see how things progress from here. Please keep us updated!

@gnarbrothers240 Год назад

I don’t know why but when you raised the flag over that beautiful cabin you made, through blood and sweat, it gave me chills and I felt inspired. Thank you guys for this video!

@nodrug2 Год назад

Even though it's not my country I felt the same way.

@smudgekids3203 3 месяца назад

Y’all crack me up! Y’all’s so green. You learned. Did well, actually. Initiative is a powerful tool.

@jezzmahefe Год назад

No words to describe this video of your journey. Mad respect.

@shanen457 Год назад

Excellent! Like my old ranch boss used to say, "Brute force and awkwardness, it's how you get things done!". This reminds me so much of my younger days, I never took on such a large project but I did quite a bit of woods crafting.

@WOH_BRO Год назад

Thank you for this. This is an absolute masterpiece. Probably the best video I've watched in ages. I bet that cracker barrel hit so different. My boys and I started to talk in Canadian accents when we were losing it on one of our backpacking trips.

@theOGwarrior 3 месяца назад

Proud of the guys. The best part is the flag. Goosebumps moment! Thank you for making such awesome video.

@michielfuentez8552 Год назад

You guys decided to do it and you did it. Absolutely amazing. Congratulations.

@japhyjim Год назад

To be young again... hat's off to you guys. Have a nice cabin myself in Texas and realize the effort. Stay the course, it might make you famous.

@TACTICALwaffle2 Год назад

These guys are just out here living my dream. Nice work and good luck to you in your adventures!!

@scottrakes1622 Год назад

This may be the best video I have ever seen on RU-vid. You guys are living every man's dream. At some point we all have wanted to just go into the woods and stay. Awesome awesome video.

@kayhaverkort4220 Год назад

That was awesome. So much perseverance. I am deeply impressed first by the fact that you set out to do this. Second by all the work you got done by hand in 30 days. This better be part 1 of a series on a journey to become self-sufficient out thare.

@GettingToHeaven Год назад

What an accomplishment, guys. Thanks for sharing your experience!

@TYSEROO Год назад

What an experience, you guys are Awesome!! Loved your perseverance, positive attitude and great sense of humor. This video made my day, good work boys!!

@superhawk20002 Год назад

I was hooked when you guys started singing The Bare Necessities in unison. EDIT: That cabin build was so tough it even took out some of the Minnesota accent. :-)

Enterprising, Pioneer men are the reason why we have a built up society. We don't thank them enough.😍

@thechiefwildhorse4651 Год назад

We didn't need all this space to live comfortably. Just for our pyramids. Where are the pioneer pyramids? -COMANCHE NATION

@learnwithandrew1994 Год назад

This was very fun to watch. I'm sure you guys were jumping with joy on the inside and were happy to get that good meal at the end.

@jaye1967 Год назад

I'm glad to see you guys did this. You're probably a bit tougher now because of it. I'm surprised you didn't switch over to wooden pegs for holding things together to deal with your nail problem. Then again, you came away with experience and lessons learned.

@dannyramos5924 Год назад

I think every man dreams of going somewhere like this and pushing there limits. I think this also shows men we are still big kids. Good job guys

@kehenabeach4418 Месяц назад

Gives me even more respect for the generations who came before us and they didn’t have a 30 day deadline.

@robertspera1732 4 месяца назад

Very cool. Tough work, but I envy you for the experience. Well done!

@michaelnadeau3238 Год назад

Awesome job guys! That was hard core. Can’t wait to see what the future brings for the cabin and your adventures!🤙🏻

@jackiereeves9280 Год назад

The most amazing thing about your journey was your raising of our treasured flag. Be very proud of what you accomplished.

@laurahaughton4523 7 месяцев назад

I remember watching this and thought you guys did great. Came back to it through a question about the roof still on such. So I watched you again and your still real. Glad again you survived. I hope to catch you again if you make more videos, take care 🌸

@douglassinclaire9968 5 месяцев назад

Nobody figures out Alaska.. Alaska shows everyone who they are. Especially out of the city. Amazingly well done, particularly for zoomers/mills, glad to see 2 yoots bringing it back, Navy strong.

@live4thehunttoday678 5 месяцев назад

As a 33 year old fat guy that watches youtube and enjoys the outdoors when the weather is fair... This videos is kick ass and you boys did some shit for sure! Funny video! I love this shit! More more!

@jac3975 Год назад

The shit blokes will do to accomplish a dream hey. 30 days in 45 mins doesn’t even begin to tell the full story of what you endured. Huge respect from OZ!

@roxxram9151 Год назад

"Look at our hammers, they're WOOD!" Enjoying the energy y'all are bringing to this.

@JandreKroeze 11 месяцев назад

Before you even start a Remote cabin, you plant vegetable gardens first. A rooster and chicken-pen may also have been a good idea.

@irishcherokee8884 Год назад

proud of you two. Your living life to the fullest.

@kristbane Год назад

This looks like the kind of adventure you will tell your grandchildren about.

@christopherrogers303 Год назад

Unlike their ancestors though, they will also be able to show them this video for proof! Imagine if we had footage of our great great grandparents doing their thing, seeing what they looked like when they were young and what they did for work and fun... our generation has the cameras for it but most people (not these guys of course) just seem content with doing silly dances on social media :(

Hello. Seeing you on a plane and building a hidden house in a deserted place is so wonderful. God is always with you. I wish you good health.

@motel581 5 месяцев назад

I got mosquito bites just watchin this. Nice work boys! Very happy to see craftsmanship meet grit in my fellow young guy

@robbergstrom943 Год назад

Nice work! My wife and I spent a year in Alaska in the 90s (we didn’t know each other then) and we wouldn’t trade those experiences for anything. Looking forward to following what’s next.

@scottculver Год назад

For the rest of your lives THIS will be all the proof you two will need to prove that you can do anything you set your mind to do! Congratulations guys! To be continued.....?

@geoffsaunderson5766 3 дня назад

This is amazing, reminds of how us Brits used to come over and just make it happen against everything, just some rough ideas and loads of hard work, and that looks brutal! Loving it, subbed

@johnelliott5923 3 месяца назад

Great job great adventure! I love the fact you showed no fighting . It was awsome!

@teshayazzie3095 Год назад

You guys did amazing. I dream of being out there and raising my family. I am 1000% terrified of being alone with my kids out there. But I feel like it would be a life worth living.
