Brooke Whipple, Girl in the Woods & ALONE Talks Moving to Alaska, Off-Grid Cabins, & Survival
Welcome to Episode 14 of Baird Country, where we dive deep into the remarkable life and adventures of Brooke Whipple. Brook's popular YT channel is "Girl in the Woods" and she was on both ALONE season 4 and 5! Join us as Brooke shares her extraordinary journey from rural Michigan to the rugged landscapes of Alaska, where she and her husband Dave Whipple carved out a life in a small log cabin while raising their children. With tales of battling forest fires in Montana, caretaking in the remote Aleutian Islands, and her gripping experiences on the survival series Alone in Mongolia and northern Vancouver Island, Brooke offers invaluable insights into resilience, self-reliance, and the beauty of living off the grid. Tune in as we uncover the secrets behind Brooke's remarkable story and her unwavering spirit of adventure.

Your story is so crazy, interesting, adventurous!! I love hearing about how you got from Michigan to Alaska. You need to write a book (if you haven't already)!!

Brooke’s tiny A-frame video was invaluable in my own tiny A-frame build. I’ve now built 2. All with zero experience. Thanks Brooke!

@Runningoncoffee05 26 дней назад

Brooke: "I was cutting classes to play ping pong" Jim: "cool". 😂😂 Another great podcast!

Awesome podcast Jim. I follow Brooke and Dave on a regular basis. She has some great stories and experiences to share. You all are awesome wilderness adventurers.

@marygordon3032 24 дня назад

Hey Jim I’ve learned a lot watching this woman and her husband from time to time and they are awesome people! 👏👏👏👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💯💯💯

@billiegoodman4872 26 дней назад

Jim, that was wonderful as are you. I have watched your(and Ted’s) channel and enjoyed your content! I only follow a few wilderness channels. You guys and Tori and Heather are awesome. Brooke is my girl. I have immense love and respect for her love of nature and for her fun loving yet audacious spirit in tackling projects that would take some several men to compete. To me, you are all wilderness legends. Thank you all.

Nice interview with valuable information and not just for women but anyone seeking something different. I'm older but it hasn't stopped me from trying something new, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks---yes you can, the difference is, does the dog want to learn?" I'm anticipating the log cabin video from Brooke, everything she does she sticks with it with determination.

@tessab2800 24 дня назад

Im addicted to these podcasts while commuting. I’m a middle aged woman who’s a wanna be Tori or Brooke! So I really enjoy the conversations with other Adventurers

@alariaesculenta8177 28 дней назад

Great woman to interview ! I'm so glad you had her on, what an inspiring life, so much knowledge and expertise....

@joanebbighausen4953 27 дней назад

Yes, only lately have we been introduced to Jim’s family- his Mom. These people are just fascinating!

@patbeaudoin4237 28 дней назад

@JimBairdAdventurer 28 дней назад

Thanks a lot and I’m glad you liked this! She is definitely amazing with all the thugs she’s done and the way she’s chosen to live her life.

@clairea-t7045 27 дней назад

So on "A Lone" the film company has all that cut out film, all those clips that they didn't use. They could go back into the unused clips and make a WHOLE NEW program of the same season but with all new footage that know one has seen. THEY SHOULD DO THAT!!!

@janasunnarborg8525 25 дней назад

I so respect Brooke. What an incredible journey she has had. So many hardships yet such strong inspiration. Great content. Excellent interview.

@shelmstedt 27 дней назад

That was a fantastic podcast. Both of you are so much more adventurous than I ever will be, but I find you also very inspiring to live the life you want to live. I love listening to you.

@estherford8209 26 дней назад

Great interview. Have watched Brooke and Dave for years and love their videos. Looking forward to watching Jim now too!

@suseyq4559 28 дней назад

Brook, you filmed one of my favorite videos. So much so, I shared it with my husband. Which one? The A frame when you couldn’t get the window/side to close. You tried and tried and tried to close it, adjust this, unscrewing that. You forgot you tied a rope to hold it up. It’s my favorite because it’s something any of us could easily have done and have! Thanks a bunch Jim, Brooke and Dave….love your channels!

@UPNorthwomaninwoods 27 дней назад

@markmaryanderson1856 27 дней назад

Thanks Jim,,,,,,,the Bairds and the Whipples are such shining examples of how to live an adventurous life. Taking the time and effort to share the Keys with us. Overcoming our doubts and fears with vision and inspiration like you guys share. Add an attitude of gratitude with a great love for Nature and you've got the Keys. Thanks again,,,YAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

@fredsimmons2793 12 дней назад

No high horses for Brooke or Dave,they walk the walk and talk the talk.Thanks Brooke and Jim.Anytime I think of Brooke,I see her stripping bark off logs and cutting and trimming trees.What a mate.I'll always remember Brooke and Dave driving all the way up into upper Michigan and helping U Tube family try to put a water well in.That was heart all the way .

@jimfromm3981 28 дней назад

Brooke put your Yurt on your U.P. property. It belongs in a setting like that. I know that land. Some wonderful values are waiting along the river after the fire. It truly is paradise.

@ADVENTUREKM 25 дней назад

Two of my favorite youtubers. I remember watching the alone show you were on, comparing your experience but wanting you to both win. Brook should of stayed in her first shelter and the Baird bros didn't have a good shelter at all. So good to hear Brooke's adventures. I think Brooks raft trip is on RU-vid, I have watched it. Every kid that liked Huckleberry finn always wanted to build a raft...cheers

@DavidJones-ly9bh 27 дней назад

Great show ..very interesting..and inspiring.

@cheriecoffee336 12 дней назад

Jim, you are a great interviewer. You guests know exactly how to answer you simply due to the way that you frame your questions. Th are not simple questions. They pull so much information from your guests. Nicely done!!

@kathytomlin3968 20 дней назад

I came across this on utube,love girl on the woods. You are an awesome lady and so talented. I loved hearing you go back to the beginning. Loved this video!!!!

@kristingrounds4163 28 дней назад

Great pod once again ....love Brooke's channel! Thanks for having her on and sharing her story!!

@stevenwarner7348 28 дней назад

Brooke so sorry. When you talk about that property in Alaska. I still can not let go of what to do with the Bunker. Just me. I know. No big deal. But I would still say that the Bunker is such a huge asset there. I get it. Not in your plans. Sorry can't help it. Take along some 6ml greenhouse grade (high carbon) plastic, frame a 12 pitch roof - just rafters - with left over logs ~ smooth all the surfaces then cover that with the plastic and you'd at least have a greenhouse kind of setup. It might be cold in the winter but the 12 pitch roof would shed the snow. Just saying. 😜

@victoriamaaske7420 28 дней назад

I like the looks of that property too.

@sharonmchugh8294 26 дней назад

Loved watching this-rewatched your season to re- fresh memory of it all. Would be amazing if you had the father and son team's from your season ( or the other bro to bro teams) on your podcast to compare familial experience. They were so humble and sincere. Would love to hear their after story. Feel like it would be important to hear.

@user-so5fd6gi3m 24 дня назад

You got all my favorites on...!!!!!. making me so happy... love it.

@majordave4789 27 дней назад

Love these podcasts and adventure stories, so inspiring. What would be cool Jimbo is if you asked your guest to bring pics of their adventures and include them in the video. Like a pic of Brooke on that river raft or of her and Mike in the Aleutian Islands.

@dianajones7999 27 дней назад

Her and Dave ....😊

@mattvaandering 27 дней назад

Loved this interview but i gotta say that it eats me up inside as a suburbanite longing for the wild

@chefvaleriewilson8738 14 дней назад

That was a great interview! I love Brooke's 'Girl in the Woods' RU-vid Channel. I think I have watched all her videos, some even more then once. I live in Michigan and love her Upper Peninsula videos. Her passion for nature is contagious. I have loved nature my whole life and she inspires me to love it even more. I say, 'Get outside and get happy' often.

@deborahparnell8862 28 дней назад

@rockytopwrangler2069 15 дней назад

... Good podcast Jim ... Brooke is a treasure to the outdoors community ,, But for a moment now ,, She's Gone .... Love her "Git-r-Done" attitude ,, wish I had it ,,, many projects , although important ,, waiting for next step ... will happen ,, but no motivation .. low energy ...

@alweedo8377 28 дней назад

You forgot to say she loves Abba.

@cheriecoffee336 6 дней назад

Haha, Jim. When you talk about your earlier filming without the tripod, my hubby and I refer to that as your Blair Witch era. Lol.

Are you two aloud to write a journal of your own experience from ALONE, including details left out? Or is that intellectual type property that you can't own. Also, to the winner of ALONE, vegetable broth was probably required since your body had been deprived for so long. Gradually, introduce food to your system. Don't re-shock it. Love GIRL IN THE WOODS content.

@rockytopwrangler2069 15 дней назад

.. But being limited to a small area with no resources for optional foods ,, i.e. seeds , other possible game in other areas etc. ... not to mention the show runs through the toughest seasons for food gathering ... Food is actually the suffering part ,, all could create a shelter , some much better than others .. leaves mental toughness to endure .. for some more social , not easy ..
