Snow in the forecast? S"no"w problem! With the winter weather imminent, we had a few last-minute prep projects to work on before everything is covered with a blanket of snow. Being prepared is the best thing that we can be for the Alaskan winter, and we are ready! When the snow flies, the scenery is absolutely gorgeous! There’s a reason why winter is our favorite season.

I liked the idea of pulling the "sled" behind the new and improved snow blower. Sometimes, no matter how old we get, we have to let the kid inside come out to play for awhile. It's good for the soul.

@kosta16auto That would be interesting to make a living on KZfaq, although it seems as likely as winning the lottery 😅 We could make a weekly update-type vlog. But we prefer to combine multiple weeks of work into one good video and make entertaining content about a completed project, milestone, or adventure, that we would enjoy watching ourselves. Living the way we are currently is a lot of repetitive work and tasks that take up most of our time. A lot of these tasks are not interesting enough to record and publish. I can see how channels with high dedicated subscription numbers would benefit income-wise from a weekly vlog but in our case, we do not feel it is a good direction to go. We work to put out new content every ten days. Hopefully, this gives some insight 🙂 thank you for your support!

I don't know if you know it or not but when case came out with the 1835 and 1845 they were king of the skid steers here in Pa. I watch alot of the Alaskan shows and your the first I've seen with a case. Did you bring it with Nice job and to retro fit the plow, that's my way of thinking Keep up the great job
@northtoalaska2022
@northtoalaska2022 8 ай бұрын
Yes! It's amazing to think in the 90s the 1845c was the largest skid steer being produced. Things have changed a lot with newer machines but the simple reliable design will continue to live on and stay popular for many decades. We purchased the 1845c in Maryland about 9 years ago. We hauled it up to Alaska with us because used heavy equipment prices seem to be about double here compared to the East Coast. It has continued to be a necessary tool for us, we would be in a rough situation without it!

I love your videos. I watch several other channels, and I'm amazed at how unprepared a couple of them were on their move to Alaska. Likewise, I am continually amazed at how PREPARED you guys are with a place to live, the equipment you need, and the methodical way you are going about setting up your homestead. You've obviously spent a lot of time pre-planning this move. Even getting the skid steer buried in mud while getting your water supply squared away didn't overwhelm you....and you got it out 😉 My late husband and I had jobs at Kodiak Baptist Mission on Kodiak Island for a bit back in 1993, but we never even thought about homesteading. So, kudos to you for doing it now, while you're young. Keep the videos coming as often as possible. I REALLY enjoy them. Blessings as you continue this journey and thanks for sharing it with us 🥰

We had been living a semi-self-sufficient lifestyle in Pennsylvania, so we had already developed many skills and acquired most of the equipment and tools needed to thrive in Alaska. It has still been challenging, but we are enjoying the process and glad we can share our experiences here with everyone. That must have been interesting to live in Kodiak! We have not visited Kodiak, but it is on our bucket list. We will continue to share whenever we can 🙂 🙏 thank you!

I love the opening to the video, no talking just the beautiful mountains, nature, and animals of Alaska. What was the name of the big mountain you could see over the trees from your property? It looks huge. You should keep your eyes pealed for a 7 or 8 foot wide hydraulic snow blower for the skid steer or adapt on meant for a 3 point hitch on a tractor by adding a hydraulic motor. While not quit as fast as a plow the snow blower allows you to throw the snow far into the woods keeping you from having huge snowbanks right on the driveway edge and preventing a muddy driveway come springtime. Your drive way will not get narrower as the winter progresses, with a plow once the snowbanks turn to ice they are not moving and every storm the driveway gets a little more narrow, not with a snowblower you get nice vertical edges and the snow it 40-50 feet into the woods. You have infinite choice of where you want to put snow, make one giant pile near the RV and you will have cold storage into early summer. Working around cars, sheds, the outhouse, etc is so much easier with a blower.

Hi, I see ice on the inside foam on your generator. You could be getting condensation and ice in your starter when it cools down. I run our Honda in a box in the winter to prevent this and to keep the breather from plugging up in real cold temperatures. We also tilt our solar panels a little past vertical so we don’t get snow or frost on them. When the sun is this low you will actually get some reflection off the snow. It’s all about those photons.
@northtoalaska2022
@northtoalaska2022 8 ай бұрын

Just read your comments with Chris at home, we are not using any light source on our chickens yet either. I honestly think it is the breed, they are the Nova gen breed from the mill in Anchorage supposedly they are rated to lay 1.5 eggs per day. We are only receiving 9 to 10 per day from 13 hens but maybe they can do better when they mature. When we were in Pennsylvania we raised around five flocks of mixed-breed hens and most new hens took 8 months or more to lay eggs consistently. Wintertime egg laying was always very slow even with a light on in the coupe. These nova gens have been a welcome surprise for us receiving so many eggs early on.

Thank you! The nearest Lowe's is in Anchorage over 4 hours away but we have a Home Depot that is about 2 hours out. We do have access to a few small Ace Hardware stores within an hour but we usually do not buy from there because of the much higher prices. We save a lot of money if we make the drive to Home Depot and stock up on a lot of items at one time that we need for projects. There are a lot of small food options around this general area because it is a tourist destination in the summer. It is common to see small sheds that sell coffee and muffins or tacos and burgers on the Sterling Highway ( the "highway" is a normal 2-way road similar to a back road in lower 48, not much of a highway)

What is the two story building with the windows? An old abandoned house?
@northtoalaska2022
@northtoalaska2022 8 ай бұрын
Yes, there is an old log cabin here on our property that we have a chicken coop inside of, and use part of it for a storage shed. It is one story with a loft, the cabin is in rough shape from the foundation failing and we will need to tear it down in the future. The original homesteaders out here lived in it Many years ago and it has been abandoned for over 20 years.

I inderstand you have limits and priorities. However, given the climate, I am surprised you did not put up an extra “green” covered space with an interior, insulated, workshop. Working outside, like you showed, seems like an doubtful prospect.

We always called them snowmobiles in Pennsylvania as well! We were told by a family member that it is offensive in Alaska to not call them snow machines.
