Great videos keep the coming

You need a permit to film in the White Mountain National Forest for commercial purposes, including posting for You Tube. That is if you are uploading to You Tube and receive any compensation from posting on You Tube. You can only film for personal use. " "Penalties for filming in a national park without a permit can include fines. The National Park Service requires a permit for all commercial filming, including for individuals or small groups who generate revenue from posting footage on KZbin. This is to ensure that the natural environment is not disturbed and that the activities do not interfere with other visitors. " You are not filming for personal use but are receiving alot of income from your videos so what you have done is illegal. You can be fined and restricted not to use the National Forest if anyone chose to bring it to the attention of the Forest Service and persued the matter with them. Good luck with you filming.

What a great set up amazing mother to have helped you through the process 🫶 maybe 🤔 maybe buy a medal back splash so it doesn’t melt more 😊I see a lot of people using them cooking on their door areas ❣🌲🍁♥

Additionally...for a low key ventilation approach...investigate using the floor and the frame channels and duct the air down vs thru the roof...

Thx for sharing your cool buildout. I am hoping my employer lets me buy my 2012 when I retire!!! it only has 29,000 miles and Ive been the only driver since new. Its been serviced twice per year since then. Only recommendation I have is your bedframe issue. Dont try to re-engineer the whole thing for comfort...get two pieces of 1/8" paperboard or 1/16" melamine for under your mattress...in a pinch those would even make something you could sacrifice for snow or mud traction...

Im On my way to build my van soon too 2011 ford transit

I see you have perfected the inverted brew method! I just got one of those Go's and that is definitely the way! ☕

I love your set up.im making a van over always looking for space ideas... love your bed😊 you are talented ❤

Thanks for sharing!

How much did you sell this conversion for?

Great job...single lady van...single HOT lady van.lol

this is a beautiful van. well done! you seem like a very down to earth genuinely kind soul. best of luck on all your future adventures! may the universe guide you well

Just discovered this video. Seems like such an interesting job and has never really knew this was something you could do. I may try and do this in the near future! Thanks for sharing and hope you enjoyed your winter up there.

Hi!

put some cheap 3 ply on top of the slats drill a few holes in it for air

How’s it looking up there these days?

Awesome!❤

Abby no longer works at the cabin but the video which 500 thousand people have watched remains. The little known cabin was a last place left in the White Mountains that you didn't need a reservation but now it will be overcrowded and ruined. Abby wasn't hired to ruined the cabin but she has. If you are concerned about what she has done contact the Randolph Mountain Club and voice your concerns so that they will no hire other professional KZbinrs that can make thousands of dollars at the expense of the cabin. Contact them by email or phone. Also post here to ask Abby to delete the Video to save the cabin. Doubt you would as this is how she makes money. One hundred year old small cabin open to the public has been ruined by a KZbinr/ Instagram poster. Bet the other caretakers and RMC members just love what she has done.

Wonder how much money she makes with so many views. Few thousand or more. Hope she enjoys the spoils of her videos. I agree with the post below the cabin is or will be ruined due to overuse. The video will remain and views with increase even after she is no longer there. It was a nice place but someone just had to ruin it.

I'll bring 2 wheel cart that carries all that stuff if I can eat what you cook

The diet is not good count as you go some of that serious bs sounds healthy but no

More than any other vid i've watched, this highlights the desperate need for a hightop. Living on knees cant be done and its showing here in spades. Vans seem big until you begin filling with a build and the space evaporates immediately. I have no idea how a couple with a dog and cat manage this.

Some swingers on ya girl, well done.

Can I ask what you did for a mattress in your van? I have the same and can’t figure out what will fit.

Hey!! Can you tell me what you used for a mattress/what size? Love your van.

The cabin holds 12 people first come first serve with no reservation system. I was already busy and sometimes filled up before you as a You Tuber got the job and made a video that 500 Thousand peopel have watched. Imagine how crowded and exploited the cabin is now after such exposure. There won't be any room anymore. It must be great to be famous but now people will reconize you as the person who ruined a hundred year old cabin and tradition in the White Mountains due to overcrowding. A lot of RMC members and guests will and do really resent you for destroying the cabin because of your selfishness so will other caretakers and the RMC Club itself. Why don't you delete the video and try to preserve the cabin. You would lose money from You Tube but people really don't like what you have done to Gray Knob. You were hired as a caretaker not someone to destroy Gray Knob which you have done. People have posted on hiking forums how destructive you have been and they are really saddened and upset about how you ruined Gray Knob. But hey it all about you and your You Tube channel and number of views and all the money you make from 500,000 views not others or Gray Knob. You are a KZbinr with 24 videos / 700,000 view and you cross post to Instagram and you have sponsers. That should add up to several thousand dollars a month of income at the expense of Gray Knob. Can you not see why people resent you posting for profit at the expense of a hunded year old cabin and Mountain Club. You have ruined it. I have cancelled my membership to the Randolp Mountain Club. Thanks

👍 it was said that we can only join the dots looking back. Wishing you glittering stars

9 summers on fire towers in Alberta. Stories for hours. Memories for a lifetime. It's an adventure. Enjoy. Peace out.

I'm not anti-people but I dream of this type of solitude. That evening hike had to be amazing.

😍

I often wonder how someone could be so lucky as to find a job that is so perfect. I pray for your good health.

Id dump

goes in to set up camera to film herself coming in the door

Do you carry some sort of firearm or other self protection tool(s). Seems appropriate for such a remote scenario..

Oh it's so cold that you decided to wear 1mm thick leggings and a shirt that is equally as useful? Get real. But at least you brought broccoli

Not to pee in your Wheaties, but you're 28 and making life decisions based on choosing those that are exciting and carry uncertainties, is not the way to manage your life. You must either have some sort of privileges or haven't experienced the challenges which would press you to know that life isn't going to just take care of you, regardless of your feelings and beliefs. I wonder what your perspective will be 10 years from now? You think you have time, as you said, but you really don't. You're approaching 30, your 1/3 of your way through life. This doesn't mean you need to be career-driven, you don't need to collect things, but there is some base needs to take care of yourself as you age. Well, unless, of course, you have family money or just have no appreciation of how time flies and your responsibility to take care of yourself throughout your life, not just during your carefree youth.

Awesome. I spent a night or two between there and the perch. I seen northern lights at crag camp. Its awesome.

Talk to the guys who own the hut if there is a possibility to install a so called RAM PUMP, to pump the water to the cabin. RAM PUMPS need no external energy.

Cool. This is why I decided to join the military at 28, after I'd already earned two degrees. I wanted to live a "life less normal, and I knew if I didn't do it then, when I was still young and fit, I'd regret it for the rest of my life. I was an anti-poverty advocate for a few years out of university and that made me very aware of how privileged I was, and I wanted to give back. I served for a decade and, yes, it messed up my "career track," but I've done things "normal" people wish they'd done but didn't. You're living a great life on your terms. I'd have loved to have had a girlfriend like you if I could be 28 again. 🙂

Hi Abby, Loved your video. I’m Hoping to hike up there in next week or two. Is there electricity of any capacity or a way of plugging in a charger? For cooking, I would just bring a canister stove and my own cook-pot/spork?? I have a 4 season sleeping pad and a zero degree bag.. Any other tips or info you can recommend? Thanks for your help.. Kevin

Beautiful situation!

When cooking with gas, the flames belong under the pot, not beside it.

So glad I found this. I grew up visiting the Whites and live in NH now. Looking forward to more of your adventures.

Nice life!

Abby is using snowshoes :O

Not much energy food in cheese and soup. Good luck out there. Dangerous to be on those rocks in the ice and snow. I hope you carry some type of weapon in case there are predators around the area.

🙂👏

I worked in a fire lookout here in Arizona (the other state with white mountains) and I know how you feel. Not everyone gets to experience this.

I want to live here forever
