30-year-old life-saving SHELTER in the MOUNTAINS. There was a fire here 

Lake Tahoe in California and Nevada states in the USA is stunningly beautiful in the summertime. For sheer awe, the Grand Canyon. For the power of water, Niagara falls is amazing. I have gotten old so probably won't be able to see any more than this, but everyone deserves to travel and see the world and it's wonders.

For me mid febuary climbing mount Brunswick and finding an A frame cabin you could use if you needed to. Mount Brunswick is the mountian on the lable for Brunswick Sardines. Was a pretty cool little trek. It's located just north of Vancouver along the squamish highway along the west coast of Canada.

My traveling is behind me, 'cause I'm old. I appreciate you sitting down alone to your meals, ' cause that is me, too ! Amazing trips : by car from Amarillo Texas to San Diego to Yosemite then home when I was 3 - Both islands of New Zealand , and then to Tahiti - Medjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina - Anchorage to Homer, Alaska - 4 of the 6 Islands Hawaii - both the north and south sides of the Grand Canyon - the southern portion of Idaho - Jackson Hole Wyoming and Yellowstone Montana - Sailed from Houston, TX to Cancun Mexico, Belize City, Belize, Roatan Honduras, Key West, then Fort Lauderdale Florida - all around New York City ( even up the Twin Towers, the Statue of Liberty, and the Empire State Building ) - Spent a month in a very rustic mountain wood cabin with my two sons when they were very young in Eagle Nest New Mexico (where we attracted a bear with a fish we had caught, watched him circle the cabin through the cabin's windows, and lived to tell the tale) - Traveled to Ireland and then Edinburgh Scotland (where my great grandfather immigrated from in the 1880s to manage the Spur Ranch in Texas for the London Cattle Company ) - Yes, I have wonderful memories of my many adventures. I love watching you create dugout homes in the woods !!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR ADVENTURES !🧓

Middle of the boonies around big lake in Alaska. My snowmachine got stuck and I was lost. I built a small shelter from snow about 5 ft deep around the base and evergreen, found dead wood and lay them over and added evergreen branches on top plus some snow. Ran the snowmachine for a few minutes for heat. Worked like a charm

The fjords in Norway! Specifically Geiranger, amazing.

so thru !

thanks

Scarce? That is a burned out forest, there is nothing but firewood there.

Where do you reckon wood comes from? I mean if we don't log it in our own wealthy countries then it will come form poor countries where corruption and no concept of sustainability exists. Usually these poor countries are in equatorial regions where deforestation results in appalling erosion during the monsoon months and a complete degradation of complex ecosystems. It best to not complain too much about deforestation when you're part of the problem I would've thought. I'm not taking the high ground here because I'm part of the problem too but where I am, they have stopped local logging and I'm annoyed about it. I'm not annoyed for the workers per se, I'm annoyed that the shortfall in timber created by closing the local forest industry is going to have to come from places like Borneo. We could just be degrading our own forests - at least we might apply some management to the environment here, but you just know there won't be any in Borneo where every tree will be removed and all the complex soil denuded. What has taken 5000 years to evolve in complexity is lost in 15mins. There is no easy solution.

@@ThePaulv12 In New Zealand we have engaged in sustainable forestation with Pinus Radiata trees which grow very quickly in our climate and are harvested anywhere from 15 ~ 30 years. Native forests are more protected.

Forests are designed to be used. I have 1000 acres of managed woodland that we harvest and replant. If you don't manage the forest it will burn.

Hello! Thank you

Thank you friend

It's easier to build them this way and more important it decrease heat loss in cold weather.

I would go crazy with a door like that. Stay safe Alex.

​@kimkimba1131 why luv?

@@emeraldfox7175 , Having to basically climb down into the the room then crawl to leave. Just want to stay upright to enter and exit a place.

@kimkimba1131 ok,kool gotcha luv,thanks for your response
