Rose is such a trooper to put up with all Jeff's attempt at comedy. Of course Rose and family are hygenic. You guys are a hoot!!

Beautiful family and I love your daughter's because they are such hard workers. God bless you guys..

I admire you and your family. It's great that you are teaching the family how live like that. You guys are thought and smart. Congrats.

Love y'all's place and how you All pitch in and handle everything. I am also loving seeing how healthy you all are. Robustness is the word. Lol, but really, you all look amazingly fit, healty & happy for the most part. It is a rugged tough life and you are all thriving.

Watched with two of my daughter's, they're impressed. My 8 yr old said your girls look very happy. Thanks for sharing

Jimmy the goat is a Rockstar. One of the 2 of you is not fresh like a rose after 6 weeks... Thx for the vids

You’re all incredible, you are better than any SoCal reality program on TV! What you and your family are doing is amazing. thank you your videos are the best. Keep up the good work. Michigan

You are a respectable family, I appreciate all of you, may God keep you happy

Hahaha....you guys never cease to entertain...thanks for a great off-grid video!!

We had running water at the farm growing up - mom would send brother John to the well to bring a couple 5 gallon pails! when the well froze up, we also melted snow to do dishes, cook, do laundry and have baths - in one of those square galvanized tubs! As the oldest of 5, I was always the last to get in the tub. Fresher hot water was added after each kid, so I always had the most water, but it had washed 4 kids ahead of me! Good times!!

Looking forward to your next video as always thank you and your family

Smashed that like button! You guys are my top favorite channel! Might not put a ton of videos out but I'm as excited as a little one on Christmas morning Everytime you guys have a new one up!

Such a beautiful family and specially i love to see hard work of you daughters. Love u all

You are amazing family. Love you guys and the things you are doing just love it

You guys are awesome. Came across you guys today and been bing watching whole day.

We used to make water that way for long weekends and stuff, and we'd have the pans on the stove, but also a bucket next to the fire to "pre warm". Speeds it up a bit. Out east though, we don't get so much precipitation some years. I think I'd want a bigger container.

You are some funny story teller. I like it. It’s a neat idea to bring the roof runoff into the house in the winter. As far as shoveling snow for water, one pound of snow equals one pound of water. So you will need more snow by volume of light fluffy mid winter snow while early and late winter (spring) the snow is more wet and you need less by volume. At the end, a pound is a pound.

So beautiful family I am watching you from New Zealand your video so great to watch.especially the way you train and teach your girls for there future.

In the best way, your daughters are dingy like you and you wife. Just started watching. Glad I founded this site. You guys are awesome.

Brilliant! That guy (Jeff) has just got to keep to the trail, he is on to something. Keep asking those real questions. Would not be surprized at all if Beefheart was related....I smile, and appreciate. The pauses are important.

we've been out of water for a long time too..and doing the melt the snow for water...we just let some of it sit and melt(my washing machine is now a water bucket station ) ...it works!

Beautiful & healthy life 👍looking forward to your new hunting videos

Just found your channel and love the videos. We live in Alberta and have been looking for almost two years for property to move off grid. Not much comes up for sale except bare farm fields but we are not giving up the dream. Good for you guys!

Oh God I do want to live this place... So much I love them all

Big salute this family..especially to the of this family😊😅

My favorite family ❤️

Your two little girls to me like my twin little boys. Just love them

I love watching your video,,i like sarah she is nice and very generous,i love this family..always watching from philippines🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Here your daughter is hauling snow into the house to melt it and put it in a big pot a second daughter hauling wood to fire the stove. All the while the water is melting off the roof and dripping to the ground all you needed to do was put the pot under the drip and leave for 10 minutes and it would be full. Now it make sense why the girls are so strong. You all do it the heard way just for exercise. Saves wear and tear on the gym equipment.

we love you guys i enjoy a lot watching your family

I cannot resist I have a dug well and yes it has gone dry first time last summer, why not pump that spring you found right to Rose's tap and you can refill your rainwater collector, great channel by the way, love the content, thumbs up

Woooooa amazing....😮😮

Beautiful family

no Jeff its a barn shovel baaahaaa love your videos

Wow great idea water save

I love your daughters, they are such hard workers. I have two boys 9 & 12, can I send them up so your daughters can teach them how to be men?

THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE! We stop water from directly hitting the ground!!!

Beauty with brain 😍 your daughters are very gorgeous

perfect example how i want my daughter to grow up, nice vids again mate! cheers from Sarawak (Borneo)

I like this very simple and humble family take always and g0dbless all

Beautiful 🌹❤

Drink only when you are super thirsty and give your body what it needs. I think what water is left in your body will be absorbed by the stools that need moisture to move in the bowels. Our stools do take moisture from our bladder if needed. So if you ration the water enough to keep you from dehydrating you could live a very long time I would think, but it would not be comfortable. I could live longer this way then no water at all. Of course one can get moisture from plants, but then there would be bowel issues. Just a thought.

I want to be a kid again and live with you guys!!!!!!

I SUBBED BECAUSE I LOVE TO SEE HOW YOU DO EVERYTHING AS A FAMILY AND MAKE IT ALL FUN

snow water! it's very healthy!

New to the channel and I love it! Tell me, I know you’re in northern Canada, but what is the city/town you live in? I also watched the video about how you built your house, does Canada not have building codes or strict requirements like we have here in the states?

you guys are the best at saving $ winter jackets are expensive! hahaha

I liked your life everyday in nature I wish you all happiness اعجبتني حياتكم اليوميه في الطبيعه اتمنى لكم السعاده الدائمه

personally i would have taken a solar panel, connected to some heat mats to put on the roof under the snow so in the winter months you can heat the snow on the roof to increase your water collection system. Also there are solar panel systems that can be used heat your water and collected into a special hot water tank.

saya suka nonton ini,di mana 1 keluarga yg gemar berpetualang yg sangat hebat dan mengnajariri anak2 nya mandiri dqn berpetualang yg sangat hebat,cuman terlalu byk ngobrolnya sih sama bapak yg satu nya (bapak yg kurus)hhhhhh.ok best of the best.by icha celebes.

Liked, shared and commented 😊

Sooooooo beautifull family I loved family 💖💖💖💖💖💖 frome Nepal

i love you from thailand

cooking on the wood stove is the best, take a little longer but worth it

That bit about Rose not shower for 6weeks...i bet Jeff caught some Hell for that off camera.

@ 1:50 I was thinking of myself boy sure hope that isn't the same shovel he uses to clean out the out house

Menina linda 👍👍👍

This video was documenting the beginning of cabin fever

nice weather

I think that I just identified THE MOST PATIENT WOMAN ON THE PLANET!!! You guys crack me up. 😜

I love Sarah..

Why not get some large drums, rig in a waterproof electric heating element, and have a drain in the bottom with an outflow pipe, you could melt in bulk that way.

How much water does that collection system hold? Cool family 👍

⚠️ CABIN-FEVER ALERT ⚠️

I like your family 😊

Can you run the vent pipe across your roof to melt the snow?

Do you have a larger storage tank now days?

Jeff, I’m sure you have already considered this, but the girls shoot a lot of the meat and it appears they do most of the chores. You are really only there for entertainment purposes and I suspect that might run a little thin. One of these winters is going to be tough and the girls will whisper to themselves, “I think he might dress out at about 185". Rose says, “Trust me, 150. Tops.” If you start to see the bottom of the freezer you should probably be on your best behavior or that little goat might be wearing your hat..

Men I love the way you live

Do you run your water through a Berkey filter or some other type before drinking?

Gives you an idea how amazing those girls are, Melting snow for water, even for a short while would drive anyone crazy, and yet there they are happy as can be, So it seems anyways. There was a time when I loved winter, come fall I would set up a prospecting tent way up north, and spend most of my winter there, The business of melting snow for water was a nightmare and the novelty of it got dull after the first winter, one quickly realizes why colonies were built around watering holes lol.

Sou fã de you

Water does not fall from the sky in Wyoming. What is this mystical sky water you speak of?!? 😜😂

Our first year here, in north central New York, we were in our house a week and ran out of water. I was like, Lake Ontario is 2 miles away how can our well be dry...We had to buy a 1500 gallon water tank $400, and $65 for the water.

Did you have to melt snow for your horses and goats or were you able to haul in water from somewhere else for them?

just what i did i had my ski-doo with a sled with a 20 gallon pail on the sled i'd go down to the river about 2 miles away fill the pail with chopped up ice blocks put the pail beside the stove magic water snow water has very little mineral content river or lake ice is good for you

Watch where the huskies go and don’t eat the yellow snow.

Smarter than the average Bear

. 🤗Your smile is always warm, always present as if you do not want to disappear from me😊😍😘✌

한국식으로 바닥에 온돌시스템 도입이 시급한듯 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 바닥이 따뜻하면 물이 얼지가 않아요 ....바닥에 파이프 촘촘하게 깔구 시멘트해서 온수난방하면 겨울은 엄청 따뜻하게 보낼수 있는데......

OMG I just found this channel and wow holy little girls Batman man that is way too many daughters

😂 Rose goes without a shower for up to 6 weeks, 😂 if a smile and look could kill

Một gia đình hạnh phúc

Somebody in the video just stole my 💜❤ 😅

I was drinking a glass of water earlier...and for some reason my brain said "65 million years ago, this water was dinosaur pee". I'm glad I had the foresight to buy plenty of beer.....alcohol kills the pee-ness of water.

@8:12 dirty snow? just don't eat the yellow snow! 😁

😍😍😍😍

I want to walk away from my life and be you!!!

She should have said I saw it on a KZfaq video that's where I learned to collect snow

Wait, so how you filter snow water/rain water for shower and drinking purposes?

It is a proven fact that you do not have to have a bathroom to pee.....so, i will choose the water. lol.

Uuuuumm I love ur daughter so much 😜

ok, hear a true story story. I've mentioned that I lived in grid hell I was born of grid. one winter I came home from school & my mum bless her sead Les I hadn't had a drink of tea all day the pump is frozen up, & I couldn't get water, I sat there & said Mom can't believe you been here all day without a drink, WE have 6 feet of snow outside? mom replied I can't drink snow. If it is so dirty melt it in a bucket Put it through a cloth sieve & put it on the stove to boil & put that into the pump. & it will unfreeze the pump, Mom. I neither thought of that sead Mom. bless. So I went out got the water bucket filled it with snow & melted it & In time it went into the top of the pump & the Hay presto The pump was unfrozen. Well if I'm honest it was the bad winter of 1962 & the snow was so deep we used snow shovels to get to school. yes it was that bad in 1962, we still had snow in Appal & may I think it was the first time I decided to lag the pump I used corn sacks & straw & an old lorry tarp to keep it all dry & rapt it twisted weir to hold in on the pump It never froze agen & mom went without a cup of tea. I removed it in 1970. yes, I kid you not it was on fore decade. it got below 40 at one stage that winter it would start to melt & refreeze at Night WE had icicles a meter & 2 meters long on the house. but a cotton filter will tack out the derby & a good boiling will kill of most of the bugs that matter, I'm suppressed you haven't sunk yourself a well to catch your water table supply. & deep pump Hang on you have one you use it on your ice ring. By the way, have you got the bugs out of the Gasifier? Thought Abbot puling that damp smock through a fire pit before it went to the generator, i had the same problem with our gasifier on wet summers i got over it by filling a pipe full of charcoal About two feet will do it "2 Or 3" pipe will do weld it into a gas cylinder on its side lined with clay & an air fed pipe with hols on it to feed the barn. the pipe with the charcoal will get red hot & create a second reduction Zone now pull your damp smock throw that before you send it to your motor & your gas will run as sweet as a nut at charismas. remember to manta your vacuum for it to work as the oxygen in the smock hits the hot Coles it is burnt off Living only gas on the vacuum Les Hop you like my tail in my day never had the net & cameras like today So have only my memoirs If you go on my page Facebook page Les Thompson You will see me & rabbits . &the grand kids .

Now put snow in the hot water and that will make water as well.

I love from Pakistan awesome videos good girl 🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰

I'm surprised you don't have a Rocket Mass Heater.

Indonesia I LOVE YOU

seandai nya saya ada di sana,

Cold

Why not take the half full water pot outside and put snow in it? It would melt much faster than on the stove, for a while, until it gets really cold.
