Hi I’m an Alaskan Athabaskan and very happy and proud to see what you have done with the skills of my people thank you so much for your amazing videos I have to say I have learned from you this time around. And am very grateful and happy to come across your videos and I will continue to watch so I can get back to my place back in the woods of my long lost life of where I grew up the city is just not for me and I knew that just came to help take care of my dad who has recently passed he is no longer suffering so not need for sadness cause death is a part of life and we all knew that. Now I am ready to go back to my life on my land back home after I save up to rebuild there Watching your videos really gives me so much hope and focus on where I need to be 😊❤. Keep up the good work. My village is Venetie ❤ & Arctic Village. ❤

I put a rain water collection at my cabin 4 years ago and it’s hands down one of the best systems I put in. It’s one of those “I don’t know how I lived without it” kinda things. You won’t regret it

I am very envious of your lifestyle. I think you are what nature intended man to be. When using a knife, curl your fingers and let the knife be guided by your knuckles. That way you won't cut your fingers off. I worked in a restaurant as a teenager and that is how I was taught. It has served me well.

This was the perfect video to see how the daily cabin life goes at your place. I must say that Norman is the most German Shepherd looking Husky I've ever seen. He's so cool to watch and I look forward to seeing him in every one of your videos. I'm looking forward once again to seeing you rebuild that dilapidated wood shed.

Your are doing a fantastic job with video. May I offer one little tip. Dawn dish washing detergent will take the oil right out of skin on your hands. If you use some dish washing gloves you can protect your hands and they will not dry out and crack. It took me years to figure this one out. All the best ...

In regards to your 6 year old expired pancake mix.... many years ago, my brother and I were helping my 80ish parents move. I was working in the basement clearing things out. I came across canned pears in a Mason jar that were about 50 yrs old. I was ready to dispose of the pears, when my mom said... don't throw those pears out, I'll eat them. They looked fermented and really gross. I would have loved to see the look on her face eating the pears 😮
