I just wanted to say thank you Ariel and Eric for sharing your lives. There are so many ‘fake’ people sharing their ‘fake’ lives. I love that Ariel is beautiful in waders or a flannel and doesn’t romp around in designer leggings with a full face of makeup. I love that Eric wears his gun in a lot of videos and doesn’t mention every five minutes that he is packing, it is just another tool. I love that you aren’t trying to promote green goop smoothies and exotic imported tropical fruits as an ethical diet. You are resourceful, hardworking and have compassion and true thanks for the animals and crops that provide for you. You worked out early in life that the daily grind is a social construct that unfortunately makes most people miserable. You have such a beautiful partnership. Thank you for sharing.

This brings back a lot of memories for me, I was 28 when I bought my wooded land and cleared it myself and wife, with only a pick up truck and chainsaw, it took 2 years all said and done, when I finished my home and business building. I wouldn’t trade it for no amount of money. The feeling of doing it yourself is priceless. Much Respect to both of you.

Hint from a carpenter. Next trip put some hinges on the top of the stairs. That way you get get them lifted up to coat the bottoms with a tar or waterproofing and keep them out of the wet more. Rest the bottom of the stair feet on tilted flat rocks so they will drain and it will triple the lifespan.

@TheUserid82 3 года назад

And if you keep the hinges on the stairs you can pull the pins to put them under the porch/cabin in the winter when the snow level will be up to the porch/deck anyway.

Watching use at the cabin takes me back to my years as a kid when we spent the summer at the log cabin by dad built, Out on the lake catching fish and eating them for dinner. The smell the old Coleman gives off. The Coleman lantern sound. The sound of the rain on the roof at night. I don't miss eating flies that was funny. Stairs look great.

@@drozone3658 it was the first thing that popped into my head on their first video going out on the boat to their cabin and I must have forgotten to comment about it. It gave me such anxiety especially when Eric said they burned more gas this time around, I could hear my grandpa in my head telling me that it’s wise to have ors just in case you ever find yourself stranded on the water. It’s probably more important for them simply due to how remote of an area they are in

A tip I learned fishing in Canada for filleting Pike is to take it in 3 cuts. First fillet is the "backstraps" with the fish belly down, make your first cut behind the head, down to the spine and then all the way down the back. The next two fillets are the sides below the Y bones. Pike have very large Y bones and this method keeps them out of your fillets. Only bones you have to contend with is the line of bones in the back, which are easy to trim out when you separate the two backstraps after cutting away from the skin. Yall have one of the best channels on RU-vid, imo. Keep living the dream!

Nice stairs. I thought no stairs to the cabin to avoid bear from crashes into the front door.🤭🤭😅😅 Very precise cutting with the chain saw there... Next project perhaps wooden jetty for the boat mooring....? Some wooden railings to climb up the slope? Btw,. If you can get a wooden pole lighter but strong (something like bamboo strength) , or aluminium pole, five ft length, tie it on the side of the boat. When passing lakes with a lot of weed and overgrown, where propeller can get caught and jammed, use it to push the boat, to propel the boat out of the area. So less damage to the propeller head. Also when the water recede the danger of damage to propeller hitting stones or ground, if the boat not that heavy, you can use it to push forward. One at the back and one at the front. Also to hang some plastic buoy on the side of the boat to protect the side from hitting something solid.. Etc Your two dogs are a lucky pet. You both make a good parents. Keep safe.

Stuck and seriously considering overwintering right in that position. I never thought of calling it parkour though. I've been there / done that and it only gets worse as the decades roll on past, Arielle. You two are a hoot.

The dogs wanted to be sure the steps were safe to use. So cute.

Breathtaking views as always. I talk regularly with my group of US friends and we all watch your videos. Everyone loves them.

Loved the outtakes at the end! 😂😂😂 You two are making good progress out there at the cabin. The steps are fantastic & it will be so nice to be able to just leave that stove out there now. Once you've got the wood stove installed and the outhouse repaired or replace you'll be ready for winter!

@carolewarner101 3 года назад

@@donaldmiller8629 The door and walls still seem to be functioning fine. Maybe replace the rotten wood and then just put a piece of metal roofing on it. Open air in summer would be cool with the amazing views out there, but in winter you'd have to dig your way through the snow down to the toilet, LOL!

@carolewarner101 3 года назад

@@donaldmiller8629 LOL, I know what you mean. We had a two seater at our little one room cabin up in Michigan, so I've done the same as you and didn't linger due to the cold in winter and the smell in summer! But it REALLY would've sucked if I had to clear a foot of snow off the shitter just to relieve myself and get back into the warm cabin in winter!

Thanks for your beautiful videos. Growing up in a really cold climate including lots of wonderful holidays in wood cabins... brings back good memories. We always got water from the lake, winter and summer 😀 you are already making holes in the ice. Don't need to waste fuel on melting snow!

All I can say, I love watching y'all in Alaska. Hubby and I dreamed of going to Alaska. We did get to live in Colorado for 7 years and loved every minute of it. We lived there in 1972, the whole family loved camping. We bought a 2 burner Coleman stove new for 21.99. Keep living the dream and I will keep watching, best wishes to you both.

Those stairs look nice and rustic! I hear you Arielle "I'm working on my upper body strength..." I'm working on mine too.

I'm loving all the content. Summer time is so exciting up there. And your dogs are just the best. I'm obsessed with Bo :)

The stairs look great. Pike are quite often looked down upon as a game fish, but their fight is great fun, and the taste, if caught in cold water, is exceptional.
