Just an idea: In Germany some restaurants have a semicircular heavy curtain just inside of the door to keep the cold from entering during the cold winter days. This curtain is hung from the ceiling on a strongly fastoned rack, and works great to keep that chill out. Might work well in your cabin there.

Reminds me of the life I had up in the Carpathians mountains in an old log cabin where i didn't had not even a fireplace or stove. Had to prepare my food outside using an old barrel in which i used to make fire. Inside the cabin was cold as heck. Showers were with cold water or snow. But guess what? Didn't even had a simple cold, or a tooth ache or anything. I moved back to the city after my training session, found hot water and gas at my reach and i started to have cold, flues, tooth aches, knees problems. I know that living up in the mountains is tough (even a nightmare for some people), but its all so dang beautiful. I miss that time, so next year i'm gonna move to an old friend's farm up in mountains. And i'm gonna take snow showers again :) God bless you, my friend :)

I have a dear old native friend here that lives with his wife in a shanty on the bank of the Yukon River, hundreds of miles from the nearest town. He is also very wealthy. Last year I asked him why they didn't move to some tropical beach and this was what he said, "We have traveled all over the world and could live anywhere we wanted to, but there is simply no better place than here on shores of the Yukon River." I love their view of life. The things they valued were not associated with money at all. Peace to you from Alaska.

Building a cabin takes a time commitment and a some money too. There are lots of things that have to be purchased.

Good evening my friend. I am so sorry to hear about your husband's accident and having to leave the mountains. I love the beach too but I would miss the mountains so much. There was a period of time in my life when I wanted to sail so badly. I wanted to experience being out on the ocean alone at night, under that huge sky. Truthfully, I would still love to experience that. Maybe some day. But for now, this cabin up above timberline, comes close. Peace to you my friend.

The cabin you see here is luxury and looks very new with all the mod cons. Would be ideal. Even a more modest place is still heaven. What you are not seeing is the wildlife that passes by. Moose, birds squirrels occasional bear. It is heaven on earth.

Good afternoon Debbie. I love those stories. I grew up on the outskirts of Nenana. We hauled our water from the creek, a mile or so away, we heated only with wood, and our only "plumbing" was an outhouse. My dad dug a 10-foot-deep hole down into the permafrost and covered it with an insulated cover. He put a ladder down into it and built shelves down there. That was our freezer during the summer months. I remember when we got our first generator. It was a 4-kW Witte. My mom was so happy. Of course we didn't call it "living off-grid" back then, it was just "living". Over a half century later I am still trying to get back to that simple way of life and I believe I will make it. Thanks for the memories. Peace.

We had a log cabin and every wall opened and became a pantry! Underground food storage and a smokehouse! Our dogs, 2 horses, 2 milk cows, 5 hens and 2 roosters provided for companionship and working needs! 1 bobcat that befriended us! Injured and my mother saved him!

Hello Kathy! Greetings from Alaska. You make me want to hear more of your story. I grew up very much as you described. My father dug a deep hole outside the cabin that went down deep into the permafrost. He built a ladder down into it and put an insulated cover over the top. It had shelves all around at the bottom. That was our freezer during the summer months. He ran a trapline, hunted for our meat, fished for the salmon each summer and grew a garden. It was not an easy life but I loved it dearly. What was it about that kind of a life that was so satisfying to a child? Where do we find that quality of living in the world today?

Whatever you do, stay away from Haines, Alaska. The worst place I've ever lived, by far...and I grew up in south Philly.....in fact, I'd stay away from all of southeast Alaska and start off in the Anchorage area. Especially around Palmer and Wasilla. Alaska is NOTHING like the lower 48. Also, it's full of EXTREMIST Republicans, just FYI. Not the friendliest place I've ever lived, that's for damn sure. Lastly, be prepared for NONE of your friends to come see you more than once because travel to Alaska from the lower 48, SUCKS HARD!!!! If all you're after is life off the grid like in this video, for the love 9f God start out in the Anchorage area first, spend a few years there and become accustomed to the different world that Alaska is, THEN decide if this is what you want. I lived MANY years of my life across all of Alaska and to be perfectly honest, aside from not having the northern lights, you're WAY better off building off grid in one of the mountain states like Montana or Washington. I spent years after my Marine Corps tour was up, in Washington and boy oh boy was that a great place. Great mountains, plenty of off grid opportunities and best of all, always still close enough to hop in the car and go to the ocean or whatever floats your boat and several big airport opportunities for your friends to use when wanting to visit. Just my two cents.... good luck and I hope you find what you're looking for. Also, just remember, if you think you need to move to find happiness, you're not going to find it. You must be happy first then find a place you love to settle in. 🙏🖖✌
