2 Years Alone Building an Off Grid Log Cabin in the Wilderness, Start to Finish

Reflecting back on the last 2 years spent building an off grid log cabin alone in the Canadian wilderness.
Thanks for watching and Happy New Year! This video is the full version of the 9 minute video on my other channel (Shawn James), which you can watch here: • 2 Years Alone Building...
They both document just the log cabin exterior build, not the creation of the rest of the wilderness homestead, such as the outhouse, food gardens, greenhouse, etc., which can be viewed weekly or by following along in the Playlists on both channels. I'll create and upload an interior cabin video once it's finished later this winter.

I think people under estimate the overall difficulty of such a task that this man accomplished. The strength, the accuracy, time management (seasons, weather, daylight), the mental aspect (being secluded, wild animals, not close to healthcare, absent from family), oh and documenting all of it, editing and everything else that I missed. My hats off to Shawn. “My self Reliance” I couldn’t thin of a better title. Happy New Year!

​@@madd5 Average home price in the US is 428k, the average yearly salary is $54k. Average home price in the US in 1970 was 24k, Average salary was $6100. So it costs 8 full average salaries to buy a home today. In 1970 it only cost 4 and a lot of the homes being purchased today are the same homes that were being purchased in 1970. Average cost of a private college education in the US today is $36k, in 1970 it was $1800. 2/3 the average salary today. A bit over 1/4 the average salary in 1970. Average renters in 1970 paid a little over a 1/4 of their monthly income on rent. Today Average renters pay nearly 1/2 of their earnings on rent. Average Salaries for college grads is even more stark. In 1970 it was 10k. Today it is 55k. An average home today costs 8 full college grad yearly salaries. In 1970 it only cost 2 1/2.

yes, owning your own business accelerates your chance of becoming wealthy.....btw you can accomplish this same goal by working for someone else...albeit you will get there, it will be at a slow and steady pace......remember...slow and steady always wins the race....lol

@@madd5 OMG another child who thinks anyone criticizing the current system must be a communist. Believe it or not, back in the 40s and 50s, when a whole family of four, a dog and cat, with a two car garage in the suburbs, etc, could be comfortably maintained on _one person's very average nine to five job,_ that was still capitalism. Countries that have free university education, universal healthcare, _those countries are capitalist systems too._ The choices are not only "suffer under the current *incredibly unbalanced* system" or "turn into China" you know. There are an infinite number of ways to improve people's lives within a capitalist system that we are not doing -- mainly because people have been told to believe that any improvement is socialism and bad for... some reason they don't understand and can't explain.

It is mind boggling to see how an extremely difficult task was managed by a single person.His knowledge and ability to use basic tools was very impressive.

It was obvious you had the ability to overcome any and all obstacles.

[@baxbax8701]

Absolutely nailed it sir! Good comment! I built my house but I used modern tools etc. It was “difficult” to say the least. But the most challenging thing was staying motivated. It is a monumental effort mentally, especially when things aren’t exactly going your way. This guy is an inspiration.

Many Men have the financial ability to support such an undertaking yet lack the skills ,stamina ,mental and physical ability while many men only lack the financial ability to achieve such a task. A task such as this takes so much more than what is being shown. Success must first be achieved in society in order to be able to fund such an undertaking. Hats off to you for such a very hard journey and work in order to even be able to start a project like this. I sure hope someone who receives this one day understands what it took to happen. One doesn't simply trot of into the wilderness ,drop some trees and build a cabin ....years, n years of hard work long before the first tree was ever felled 👍💯

This is more like a real log cabin construction compared to some others which I see using commercial lumber. I am very impressed with the effort he is putting into this build. Just digging down through those roots and hard dirt reminded me of how hard it is to do. Moving all those large logs is very dangerous and you have to know what you are doing not to get hurt. Rather than the chain saw board cutter I would have gone with the one with the large circular saw blade and used it to make regular lumber for the floor joists, wall studs and rafters. But then it would not look like a log cabin. I don't know about using wood for the below grade foundation, rock and some kind of cement would be my choice. He knows what he is doing because he always has the right tool to get it done. Kudos to all the great video shots of the work, makes me feel like I am right there watching it being done.
