As a former Alaskan (Anchoragite) who partially heated my home with wood, you may need another cord. We were balmy compared to what you’ll experience. Can we send you things? Or do you have an Amazon wish list? I’d buy you a sled for pulling the wood now that you’ll have snow for awhile! Unless of course you want the work out. Always important to do that for Alaskans. So you stay sane. Love your videos and you’re almost at 100k! Yay! That will help a lot I’m guessing. I hope you agree to do sponsorships for products you believe in. We’re in a different time than when your parents started. Really expensive now and even more so in Fairbanks. Maybe a quad company or a sled company! Lol! Keep up the good work.
I had heard you mention that your son has a channel on YT. So while browsing through, his channel was recommended and began watching. When he placed the bacon on the stove I figured he was your big boy.
@catmindy2187 well it's about his life from his perspective. And it is his Adventure. He's 18 years old what were you doing at 18 years old? Your comment comes off as you projecting your own faults. You might want to take a long hard look in the mirror and at your own life before you tear down somebody else. Nobody is tying you to a chair watching these videos...
@catmindy2187 do you watch to criticize? Of course the videos are about him. Is there something else you'd like to see? He did ask for suggestions. He's a young man trying to discover life. Did you have it figured out when you were 18? He's done more than a lot of kids his age I know.
Video ideas: 1. A walk around all of your property. Show the views from the N,S,E,&W. 2. Discuss what your your spring plans are. IE A garden, a well, toilet/shower issues. 3. After reviewing of the comments about your cabin, discuss what you plan to do in the near and middle future. 4. What is a shopping trip like? How far, how expensive? 5. You plan for bear visits. Great job on the videos. You're going to make it through the winter. Decide not to quit and you won't.
Video idea- Give us a video of you picking out an actual defense weapon past a hammer, even a cheap and old double 12 gauge would be good for the time being, pawn shops would be good. More than that, maybe making candles and the like to save on generator fuel (you are just using that right?)
He is an intelligent young man. He has lived this life in Alaska all his life. He will get things done in his own time. Let him make his own decisions.
I'm going to suggest that you stack your firewood right next to your cabin. When the Alaskan deep snow hits you do not want to have to dig your firewood out of a snow drift some distance from your cabin. You should stack it up on the south side of your cabin where the sun will hit the firewood stack and help keep it from freezing together.
@@mikehunt4797he has a lot of his own wood… but it needs to dry out…. No shame in buying a cord or two… he's doing a great job for being an 18 year old,kid on his own!
The reason the stove piles smoke out into the cabin in the beginning is because there's a cold air table within your exhaust vent that is preventing smoke from rising up and out the house. Remember hot air goes up, cold air comes down. It's something they teach you in one of them pesky schools :P hehe. But anyways. If the gradient is high enough the cold air triumphs and pushes any heat or smoke that tries to rise up, acting like a cork in your vent. You gotta break through that cold air blockade first. Before lighting up the stove all the way, you can fire up a small bundle of newsprint or paper and hold it right up the ventilation port within the stove, in order to have it's hot air rise and push the cold air out of the way. then you can light up the whole stove.
1. fix the roof video. 2. A walk around the local area, shopping, fishing etc. 3. Build a Swedish hottub using the stove for heat. 4. A much extended day in the life video (30-40 mins) 5. Do you have a pet? You need a pet. 6. A live W and A.
Get a video of you putting a fucking heat shield on that god damn stove before you burn your shit down! Seriously dude. That is a walking nightmare for me watching you use that stove against that wall with no heat shield. The fact that you haven't burned your place to the ground yet amazes me. Please. GET A GOD DAMN HEAT SHIELD ON THAT STOVE!!
Here are a couple of ideas you may want to consider. String an elevated line [ 60 inches up, or so ] from near the front door to where you park the car. Buy an extra cord of wood when you can afford it. [[ if it is available, buy hardwood, not softwood ]] Before the snow gets too deep, turn your car around so that it faces the road. When you have the $$, stock up on some extra food --- canned goods and some basics like rice, noodles, etc. Best of luck with the Winter weather changes; I'll be watching.
Hi Mick! So glad to see you again! My thought for you, Electric Blanket! Ash Bucket for your stove is something I'm sure you have. Stay packed up with dry beans, rice, sugar, Self rising flour & oil. Please stay safe, world is at war. So glad Cabin's finished enough to live in. Praying for you.❤✝️
@@sarahko2014 He has electric. He has 2 lamps that are plugged into outlets. Then in past video's he mentions if he runs out of firewood that he has electric. At least that's what I heard & saw.
How about the galvanized chimney panel on the wall? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Poison. If his chimney deposits catch on fire, and they will, the galvanized plate will hit a flash point of around 600f. At which point he gets poisoned by zinc.
@@CScott-wh5yk he also used an interior door which has no insulation, instead of an exterior door. the pipe on his wood stove also appears to be the wrong way which is dangerous and is probably the cause of all of the smoke billowing. a smoke detector could save his life if smoke billows and floods the cabin while he sleeps. he also needs a shelter for his wood, or it'll get wet from snow and will take days to dry out and become usable. if it's cold outside, you don't have time to waste days on drying wood because wood is your heat source. criticism will save his life, if he takes the criticism seriously. edit: he did mention he has to replace the door, but that should be his top priority. edit 2: having the wood stove that close to a wood wall with no hearth or barrier or anything of the sort is a major fire hazard. It's even more concerning because it's close to the door so if a fire does happen, his only exit is blocked (besides the windows).
Hey, I'm not anywhere close to being in Alaska, but we use wood for heating as well and I have a tip since you don't have a woodshed (yet). Tarps are your friend! Just put a tarp or two on your pile of wood and it won't be covered in snow (or water once it melts), and it'll lower the chances of the liquid to put out your fire. Great video, excited to see how you handle the winter months! :D
Your wood stove/fuel is the most important thing in your life right now. 2 chords probably isn’t enough. Agreed get that wood covered or you’ll be fighting it all winter. Best to get your wood supply cut/stacked in the spring and let it dry all summer. Next season maybe. Good luck
Just a suggestion, when you mentioned the roof isn't done, an easy temporary "cheap" fix would be putting a tarp or two over it for the winter, as it would keep leaks from getting in. Also, depending on how expensive it is, may want to consider putting a tarp or poly over the wood to keep snow off. I know the floor is insulated, however, as cold as it is going to get there, have you considered putting poly around the base of the cabin and down to the ground? Would block wind from blowing under the cabin, or you could also use pine boughs and then bank the cabin where there is enough snow - and that would be FREE! Awesome job so far! Keep up the amazing work! ✌️
Video on how you put tin on the side and behind the wood stove so it doesn't catch the wall on fire! You could bales of straw around the base of the cabin to keep out the cold and keep the floor warmer.
Absolutely! I was about to type the same two suggestions. Please get something around that stove. And straw is a great cheap insulator. And if no wood shed, how about a tarp over the wood?
I'm a mom and admire your strength and determination to make it out on your own, and the strength of your mother to let you do it without interfering. You are both strong people. I am concerned that you don't have any insulating layer between your wood stove and your interior wall. Wood stoves can get hot enough to cause spontaneous combustion. Please make it a priority to protect yourself from that happening. Thank you for your videos! I really admire you and enjoy watching you grow as a person and be self sufficient.
My mom runs a wood stove here in Arkansas. When we put it in she put concrete board on the walls and then put metal on that to reflect the heat back out.
I've been on an Alaskan adventure with a group of Alaskan teenage scouts and I'm convinced a guy that's grown up in Alaska is capable of making it through an Alaskan winter. I have lots of confidence in Mick.
Hello Mick sometimes the reason that a wood stove will smoke when first started up is the column of cold air in the pipe that the smoke has to overcome to make it up and out to the sky. One way to overcome this is to use something like a piece of newspaper that you put into the smoke pipe and light it to preheat the pipe and help to establish the draft. Then you light the small pile of kindling or other starter material to get the fire going. I realize that you may not have a good supply of newspaper to use for this but a little bit of good dry bark should work almost as good. I have been a wood burner since 1979 when I bought my first wood stove. Have a great day. Tom down here in Canada in the Maritimes at the NB-NS border.
You may want to build yourself a simple sledg to haul your wood to the cabin. I dont think you'll get it sll in before the snow starts piling up. Also get some tarps to keep the snow from packing into the wood piles. You're doing great. Mike from Maine.
So, How many trees have you cut down, chopped, and stacked at the age of 19. Oh and how many cabins did you build at 19. This is Micks first year, and first attempt. He will gain great value from his experience, and I give him credit for what he has accomplished, perfect or not. He also has a great group of you tubbers willing to cheer him on, and offer advice, which I know he will take to heart.@@davidhillen1682
Video ideas! *Building a woodshed. *Building an outhouse. *How are you getting your water? *What's the plan for extreme cold? *Food procurement (town run?) *Building an insulating layer around your woodstove (it's dangerously close to the wall)
I agree with the comments concerning the wood stove clearances to the wall and other combustibles. A simple sheet of metal with wood block stand offs would help. I live high in the West Virginia mountains. This will be my third winter.
Glad to see you have something besides Ramen. Bacon and eggs are life! Video ideas: First real winter storm, and your thoughts about it. Water collection/storage. (how you do it) Calling your parents to keep them from worrying. (The mama in me just had to go there... sorry🤣) Shots of the Lights when they come out. Finding the drafts in the cabin (and what your solution is to fixing them) Finishing the ceiling. Where did you get the wood from, and what was the cost? (everyone likes a price comparison) We are rooting for you, and we are betting that you WILL make it through the winter! (just keep stock of that bacon)
You have such a rich, soothing speaking voice, I could hear you narrating movies (where narration is used - or voice-over). Looks like you've settled right in. Thanks for sharing!
Will you be adding tin/metal panels on wall around woodstove? I always see it, wood wall protection. You've accomplished so much, done so well, it's heartwarming to follow your journey. 😊
Ignore the nay-sayers! Those of us that appreciate what you are doing are very happy to know you are alive and well and warm and fed! Just seeing those mountains is reward enough for me. Thank you Mick!
@@artful1967 The folks in the comment section bashing the "critiques" and "nay-sayers" are a part of the problem. He has maybe a six inch pitch on his roof from top to bottom across ten feet or so. If he gets that supposed twelve feet of snow, and that roof collapses, he's a dead man. The door and stove both deserve criticism as well. It is perfectly fine, understandable and even reasonable to want to live outside of government overreach and do things on your own. That is my own way as well. However, there is still always a right and wrong in every situation. Building correctly as opposed to incorrectly could save his life.
@carolann6072 you say nay-sayers, I say concerned and more than likely more experienced individuals! And as a mother I can guarantee I along with many are very happy to know he is alive, well and warm and fed. What I see is a LOT of people sharing very important details of things he needs to fix and work on, so he will continue to STAY alive, well and warm and fed!
@@gamermanzeake That is very concerning. It is irking to see someone shirk off good advice throughout every step of the process and then say its "because I want to learn on my own". I guess he will be learning if his roof collapses on him.
I must tell you that I very much look forward to your videos. It's nice to see someone following through with their dreams and enjoying the fruits of your labors.
I dont know if you have heard of this wood splitting method, but it is popular here in Russia: Find two old car tyres, place them on top of each other and stuff them with the wood you need to split (so that the wood chunks are standing vertical and stick above the top tire). This way when the wood is split it does not fall on the sides but stays in place for even more splitting.
The guy here tested this method versus the traditional one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5OA53zFy1TA.html Sorry for the foreign language but the results are the method is 40% faster (although it also has some disadvantages)
I don't see it as courage. He isn't alone. He has family and friends already there to help him if things don't work out. It's not like he moved somewhere, where he's never been and has no one.
I dunno, something so pleasant about this short video, of an update, shots of what you’re up to and where you’re at, it’s just as easy to watch as the longer format. It’s all part of the story, and you are a wonderful story teller.
Great to see your post. I saw your mom and dad 25th anniversary camping video. It great that you guys share the same love for the outdoors. Stay safe ❤
A good video would be build a woodshed for all that wood you’re gonna need could possibly include a covered deck area from your front door to the wood shed. Keep pushing on I know you can make it through the winter if you have a PO Box it would be nice to mention so people can send you items.
I feel bad for him eating just ramen form earlier videos. Recent food looks more wholesome--but I'd second that so we can send him some blankets or something.
Enjoying the peace is therapeutic! I am in my 60's and look forward to your updated videos. What an exciting life journey. Continue to take care of yourself and what is around you. You seem to be a kind young MAN. Keep up the good work !
This reminds me of when we used to go to nearby woods and build "houses" to hang out when we were the kids, we were three best friends, 14 year old boys, sneaking away with a saw, an axe or a hammer with some nails cutting some small trees down and building a shed in the middle of woods. I am still amazed none of us got injured. Had the time out our lives though. These videos makes me feel like someone else managed to accomplish the dream we had as kids, building a house and living in the woods all by themselves.
You sure need to put a metal heat shield on those walls behind your stove! The more that wood behind your stove gets heated over and over the more flamable it becomes over time
Good to see you're doing well, Mick. You got your stovepipe changed out, you found yourself some eggs and bacon, and some wood to chop. You have a good life, my friend. The stove randomly billowing out smoke is probably due to wind blowing down your chimney. Stay safe and enjoy! Looking forward to more. -Dusty
I enjoy your videos, no matter the time between each one, no matter the length. I admire your determination and your willingness to do what you have chosen for yourself. Thank you for sharing!
Your doing great! Learning as you go! I can imagine it feels like folks are being critical of you when they are pointing out things that should be changed, or could be done better. Most folks are trying to be helpful. You know the old saying "...you dont know what you dont know". But through trial and error, you will learn. Its not just knowing what to do, or how to do it. Sadley, it all comes down to money. Without the finances you just do the best with what you have till the right resources become available. I am worried about the woodstove so close to the wall. See if any of your friends have access to some old coragated metal. Doesn't matter how it looks...we want you to be safe!!! Cheering you on from Northern Minnesota! Keep on toiling!!!!
Hope that's enough firer wood Mick. Keep the videos coming so you have enough money to live on. Please be careful when going on Outdoor adventures by yourself, I didn't realize how many people disappear in Alaska, with no trace of what happened to them. I watched a YT video on the Alaska Triangle, and was shocked by the numbers of people who disappear each year. Getting eaten by a big bear or whatever happens to all of the missing folks, scares the heck out of me. Brookie, & Bushy would be heartbroken if you were to come up missing, so please devise a great safety network whenever you go out in the Wilderness. A video of you walking the property lines showing the Awesome winter views would be terrific, those distant mountains are just stunning to look at.. Make longer videos, you will get better, do some hobby wood carving or whatever you enjoy doing and share that with us viewers, we all want to learn who you are young fellow. Keep up the Great work Mick!!!!!!
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼……………………………………………….Youngin, I really admire you! If I knew then ( when I was young) what I know now, I’d be right up there with you! I’ve actually planned in my head what I’d have done and how I’d have done it. It’s too late for me, but I wish only the best for you and I’ll be praying that you make it and thrive, that your cup will be OVER FLOWING!
@@sandrasherritt9708 I've seen enough of his parent's cabin builds and they always put the flashing behind and beside it to protect the walls. I mean, I understand he wants to do things his way but he really can't afford to lose this cabin over a stupid fire mistake.
I wish when I was your age I had the nards to do what you are doing. Congratulations on your achievements!! A couple of suggestions for your stove. A damper in the pipe would help you to control the fire. Second some tin, brick or stone would protect the paneling behind it. Don’t forget a smoke detector. Best of luck. Enjoy the videos
Hey Mick, your cabin is looking cozy and you have some good protein for keeping you strong. Maybe you could make a little pantry of shelves for canned meat, veggies, fruit, flour, sugar, salt, freeze dried eggs, milk for cooking, and baking. Maybe even a big bag of potatoes. Keep them dark and they last. Make sure you have plenty of back ups. Take heed of advice regarding safety, please, or this will be all for nothing. Years ago up in White Cloud, MI, my dad had a shed right next to his place where he stored a few cords of wood. He had a little cupboard door that he could feed his wood into his living room from the shed and into a cardboard box. Saved steps. Reflectix on windows at night and a blanket over your door might help, too.
I’m really looking forward to watching you this winter. I’m considering doing something similar myself. Was badly injured years ago in a car accident and it’s taken me 4 years but I’ve been learning to use my body again. Getting a second chance at life has left me really wanting a life just like this but I wanna make sure the winter won’t be too much for me😅. Ur channel is absolutely perfect for someone like me this is my new favorite show lol
Hey Mick Lots of work ahead of you before winter really sets in But I am sure you will do just fine your determined, smart and have grown up around this kind of thing living with your parents who have been constructing cabins for some time. You know what has to be done and i am sure you'll get it done. Cant wait for the next video . Ontario Canada.
Just stay warm and eat well. Everything else will fall into place. keep up the good work young man. I hope my son does something like this and just “goes for it’’… when he’s 18. Proud of ya.
I think most people in your situation wouldn't make it through the winter. But I also think you're far more resilient and determined than most are, and if you have even half the knowledge or skill in the outdoors as your father, your survival is almost a guaranteed thing. I absolutely cannot wait to see the next video, I want a cabin like yours some day. Until then I'll just live vicariously through these amazing videos.
And if he has trouble, it appears at 2:11 that he's just 75 feet or so from what appears to be a pretty major asphalt road.... the road by which his firewood is "delivered." Not exactly the off-grid Alaska I was thinking. LOL.
@@ep1cg4m3r69 There are a lot of other folks who are doing this a bit more ... shall we say ... legit? and I'll follow them. This all looks a bit staged and amateur to me. (Kid's also gonna burn his whole place down if he doesn't get a heat shield on that stove! And I worry that shallow-pitch shed roof is going to collapse under the first real snow). I'm not totally on my "homestead" yet, but my acreage in Montana, at elevation 6,880 is up a five-mile two-track road. No utilities for miles. Small solar system keeps the lights on, a wood stove (with wood we cut, not have delivered) is the sole source of heat. I just can't take this very seriously.
I am pulling for you to make it through the winter. I look forward to your videos. However, as someone who has insulated and worked on keeping a house warm in one of the coldest and snowest midwest states, I worry about your warmth.❤
Love your videos! I’m eager to watch your adventure unfold! You have a soothing voice so the narration is enjoyable. A question I have for your next Q&A is if you play any instruments? Plucking away on our ukuleles in the dark winter days is something we enjoy here in Maine.
A video just walking through and around the cabin (I know it's not much) and offering commentary on what went wrong, what went right so far, and things you've got planned would be great. Honestly, things that might seem mundane or boring to you can be cool for the rest of us. :)
Hey I'm watching from Ireland and it's scarily warm for this time of year (20 Celsius / 68 Fahrenheit which we usually only get in the summer months) but I'd say I prefer it to what you're getting out there. Glad to see you're enjoying it though, your videos are very relaxing to watch, keep up the good work :)
Really enjoy your videos! A few video ideas since you asked: 1. I know you are short on money, so scavenge to get some items: pallets to build with, Craigslist free stuff section, stuff you find on the side of the road or in dumpsters. 2. You like to write, so maybe share a published poem that captures some element of your experience or philosophical. Then share something you wrote. 3. You have a lot of work to do; however, I’ve often found some volunteer work often helps refill my soul. Maybe volunteer at a shelter, soup kitchen, or animal shelter, even just for a day. 4. Ice fishing adventure with your friends 5. Video tour of one of the towns near you 6. Video of making homemade ice cream with snow 7. It would be interesting to hear what about the biblical quote “toil for your food” resonates with you so deeply. 8. A camera roll share might be fun, especially of different stages of this adventure or general winter shots. 9. A talk about some of your favorite RU-vidrs from different ages of your life 10. I always love a good Q&A Nothing too mind blowing in this list, but I hope it helps in some way. ✌️
Mick, I LOVE your attitude and outlook. Don't worry what people think. It seems you know how to find happiness and contentment with where you are and what you have. Dave and Brooke did a great job instilling that in you. Many people go a lifetime never knowing that. It's refreshing to see that in people. It is one of lifes greatest blessings.
You have a great you - tube presence. Your honesty is refreshing. Just be you. Some people like to harrass, thats just who they are. Ignore. You have to do yourself to learn. You are doing great. I think people will be interested in most things you do, even the mondane. Shopping trips. Improvements. Work. Questions and answers. Good luck.
Hey Mack, things are coming along it looks like. I’m cutting wood here and getting ready for our winter.. I know it doesn’t come close to what you will expect this winter. I do hope you stacked back plenty of food stuffs. We’ve been putting up peas the last few weeks.. oh boy I can’t wait to start cooking them. Keep it up,, you’re learning everyday just keep doing it. As always, Watching from Oklahoma. Thank you Jeff.
Show us the beautiful snowy woods, leaves changing, landscape changing for the winter. Show us all the wood cutting, prepping, clearing, any doings you do. Cooking, eating, making fires. Anything is great. Film everything. Hear a noise, film it. Search for the source. Get a cat and film that lil guy! Everyone would love that!!
Nice job MICKEY you’re doing a great job out there and you’re making it on your own. I am proud of you and I believe you’re making your parents. Very proud. 😊
A short video , but I absolutely loved it!!!! Looking forward to your next one. You need to cook yourself a big pot of Barley Soup during cold weather. It would feed you for a week and it’s so nutritious. I was wondering, are you planning to build an Outhouse in the near future? What kind of precautions are you taking so that no Bear could ever get into your cabin? Are there Grizzly bears in your area? Always stay safe. Keep up the great work. We love you.
I’d love to come up and visit your homestead Mick! I’d bring a cooler full of food and some fixings for yeah! Hopefully by next summer I can make my way up to Alaska! Currently in NWT of Canada! Basically feels like your my neighbour!!
I have no doubt you will make it. I've watched enough of your parent's videos to have an idea how you were raised. You know what you're doing and your learning even more as you go. So many people couldn't do a smidgen of what you've done. I have faith in you and so look forward to your videos. Stay safe and GOD bless
It is great to see the progress you have made. Your house looks great! You are such a hard working young man. I was just looking to see if you had a PayPal account. I am sure I am not the first subscriber who would like to support this channel. With PayPal you get the money instantly, not like waiting until the end of next month like RU-vid pays. Please consider it!
I admire your positive attitude and determination for success with your property and cabin. Your breakfast meal also looks delicious! I'm guessing that the majority of those who are being critical have never been in the exact position you are right now, both from your financial to current solitary existence on your own property. It appears you are doing great and that you do not sit idly, wondering what to do next! I'm sure there will be things you build or plan that you find may need updated or tweaked, but that's all part of living life and learning on a new homestead at any age. I know you are in many prayers for your safety and guidance, including mine, and I look forward to following you into the winter. See you next time!
You're DOING it, proud of you, Mick! Those negative people dont have the balls to even try. It's a satisfying life you are leading. Work to LIVE, then relax, create, think. None of that living to work, just so you can pay off all those loans for the material crap most people must have to keep them satisfied. Like you, I'm fine by myself, with a book, a paper for ideas and art supplies of all media. And a bonus dog (or cat) after you're all settled and money is rolling in. You've got this....life on YOUR own terms. Screw the naysayers. Even if you didn't stay the whole winter, WHO CARES? You can come and go as you please. You're 18 and OWN your house and property. Not many can say that. Once you have a little traveling cash saved up, spend some time with family or friends. Go camping down south, it's gorgeous down here with lots of natural springs to swim in, natural beaches, and places to go. The world is your oyster. See as much as you can of it. You built a home of your own, not a trap that keeps you there working for IT like most of this material country. You rock, Mick. 🥰😎❤️. Cheryl from Florida
Hi Mick, love the videos. one suggestion. get a pair of leather welding gloves to help you tend the fire. The ones iv used allowed me to reach in and move the wood while it's on fire if needed. works great for the quick reposition of the wood.
Hello, I just found your subscription and I’ve subscribed. It’s very enjoyable, simple and I can tell you’re sincere and genuine. In these days it is wonderful to see someone struggling to beat the rat race and to get away from this stifling authority sucking the life out of people. At 67 and retired, I’m an old gal with a home in California and for several years now I’ve been learning off grid living. I enjoy it immensely but thankfully it’s been a slow journey helping me to mentally get behind these new changes that must occur, I often was overwhelmed. As we all know now society is spiraling down and is very undependable. A sled for yourself to cart wood and heavy objects is a great idea. Please consider since a woodstove is so vital to your warmth, invest in several feet of insulating cord and the glue for your woodstove door. I haven’t used the HVAC in several years depending solely in the winter on my woodstove. And when that special cording on your woodstove door begins decaying or the glue unhinges the cord, the smoke starts seeping from your stove. So I have plenty of new cord and glue in case that happens to me again. God bless you honey, be safe And looking forward to your next video.
Mick, please build yourself some steps. Jumping out and down all the time is horrible on your knees. And you thank me when you’re older. Be careful and stay safe out there.
Hey, I’m proud of you just like most of us watching. I’m 70 and wished I would have been more adventurous at your age. (I was later in life) So, crazy cool that you have your own place and making it on your own! P.S. I can almost smell the wood/bacon burning as your stove burns away! Congratulations!
I’m hoping you just have a great winter and am very happy you’re doing so well. No criticisms here. Love your vids and I only wish you the best, you’re doing great! God bless Mick!❤❤
I would love to see a video of you speedrunning to get done all of the stuff you have been putting off. Or a mini tour of how you have your cabin set up and other things you would like to have in it.
A am huge fan of life in the wilderness and I always image myself how /I would like to live in the such cabin. As a woman who loves security of the home, I am always amazed how some people build their cabin especially in Alaska,with huge window and I saw one cabin that has 4 different window in the living room!!!!! I think build cabin in Alaska with very harsh winter, with possible bear entering the house thru the window and doors with glass .....I say to myself do the people think about safety and harsh winter? That is why I like your cabin a lot. In your cabin I will feel safe, I will only change the door, for more sturdy door, plus the door will need to open from inside out, because bears know how to push, but not how to pull.....plus, your cabin is so neat and clean, is simple but looks very comfy........this is my type of cabin........love it!!!!!
