Join me as I build a 1700s trapper cabin-style shelter inspired by the History Channel's ALONE show. This project took time, dedication, and traditional skills to complete. Please visit my website to get more information: www.melanie-sawyer.com/
I share the process of constructing a log bed, walls, and even a chimney to prepare for the cold weather. This shelter provided protection and became a part of my daily routine, helping me stay grounded and focused in the wilderness.

This is amazing watching you do this. Old Mr. Geriatric said he didn't get picked LOL. My neighbor did a bicycle trip from west coast to the east Coast and trained physically for sometime but he said the mental strain was by far more overwhelming than the physical strain so the same thing on a quest like Alone. 43 days is amazing.

Ryan who heads the whole thing had constantly told us about the head game...I was happy for the most part to be by myself..it was the intrusion so to speak of filming, laughing camera equipment, miking up, med checks and the following interviews and making sure I had enough batteries for everything that was the killjoy. Lol. I am always thankful for the experience tho!

@lawrencekeller6029 Ай бұрын

This is interesting the head games. You where not living off grid as you were used to. To much interference from the outside world that's definitely not what those people are used to LOL. Be safe out there. Blessings and Balance, Balance & Blessings for from Balance comes all Blessings. IIByrds

Respect to you Melanie I loved your setup plus you were competing against some big guns I really hoped you would hang in there because I could see you could've easily won .. Was sad to see you tap out . Respect nonetheless

Great shelter, love the stone fireplace and chimney - well done!

@MelanieSawyerForager 9 ай бұрын

Thank you so much! It was a quiet project I could do every day to keep the mind busy and not expend too much energy doing/creating. My shelter was megga cozy. I had no real need for a fire even when the snows happened. I wish there had been footage shown of when I first found the clay and how I lined the chimney and surrounding walls against fire. My dude is a chimney sweep so I had to keep it up to code so to speak 🤣

@mkmason7727 10 ай бұрын

This is so cool! I would watch an hour long video about your shelter. Using the clay is so clever!

Good morning!! Thank you so much! I was TOTALLY extatic when I discovered it in the lagoon! Was a 4eal bugger to drag up to the shelter but totally worth it!

Awesome shelter, Melanie. Two questions: 1) have you built similar shelters in the past, and 2) what brand of recurve bow (and what draw weight) did you use on Alone?

@MelanieSawyerForager 9 ай бұрын

Hello James!! That awesome bow which you sadly don't see me use is from Ray at @riverbendlongbows I have to say it's so freaking good! I love it's balance and feel.

and about the shelter, yup .I have built shelters in this design before, I usually use canvas or tarps to create all the walls and don't go for the log, mud and moss chink but I had some time on my hands and treated Mibday -Friday as work days.. shelter, fire wood and food prep and harvesting and then Sat and Sunday were play days where Id take off and go explore the land around me, foraging, hunting, snaring and fishing as I went
