Glad your back.. really missed your trapping videos those winter

[@talpid2312]

Your Dads a good story teller. Glad to see you guys healthy and back at the cabin. Keep going

[@TheWildNorth]

Yeah he has some for sure. We will see more of him he retired recently so hopeing to have him at camp more.often!.

[@ScottDore-jn3nf]

Glad to see you at the cabin hope all is well stay safe brother 🍀🍀 had the same thing happen here in Maine a ruffed grouse smoked thru deer camp 😂😂😂😂

[@TheMuskokaman]

I've had the same experience with bush chicken, Flew right into my cabin window while I was sitting at the table! Scared the hell outta me! LOL I seen fellas in the Yukon who used spray foam for chinking on the same vertical log style. On the inside they whitewashed everything to keep it bright inside & I think they used brown Mono caulking over the foam on the outside. The whole cabin was made of poplar & rebar for spikes. Clever engineering I think & not too far removed from an old beaver lodge in design. Glad too see you back Andrew. Happy Abo day from Ontario👍👍

[@TheWildNorth]

I used spray foam it's so messy and ugly. I will stain the logs this fall I think!

[@godsoffspring4195]

LOL. Seen that once with a pheasant. Was eating supper and looked up just in time to see it soar right into the large living room window, Shook like a SOB but never broke. Knocked the bird out but it revived in about 10 mins and took off. 😆😂

[@TheWildNorth]

That's a great story I guess it's fairly common.

[@godsoffspring4195]

@@TheWildNorth Probably about as common as when one of us walk into a super clean glass door thinking it's open. LOL.

[@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837]

Hello Neighbor ! The cabin is looking good It will be nice all sanded it will brighten it up :) That chicken certainly gave himself to you :) Great video 👍

[@claudelabelle7099]

Andrew...... your back. So nice to see your videos, watching then relieves all my stress.... your fortunate to have a dad to share good times with.

I'm jealous of your cabin! Enjoy your day

[@davidgingerich2230]

Good to know you and your dad are doing well. You can't take that dollar with you. I really miss your videos.❤❤

[@TheWildNorth]

Yeah dollars mean nothing. Money don't buy happiness whatsoever. I'm moving back to camp.

[@not2tees]

That is a trip, doing all that sanding. You must have dreams about it! That selfie stick gives you some good shots, very cool.

[@TheWildNorth]

The Sanding is very rewarding. It's nice to see the logs clean up.

[@deadpinecollective]

Awesome. Good to see new vids

[@kurtreinhardt6789]

Great to see you again Andrew- logs look awesome all sanded down

[@muskrat411]

Im out at camp to. Looking for beluga, but none around yet. Still snow on the ground here and there and sime ice in the lake. The ocean was frozen where we were.

[@TheWildNorth]

More to come!

[@wild1595]

ANDREW!!!!!! Man i really miss your videos. Keep them coming EVERY chance you get PLEASE!!!!!

[@TheWildNorth]

I'm it buddy was filming the other day on the quest for a 20 pound pike. Was way too windy to fish could only hear the wind blowing.

[@rangerreno1249]

Love the chicken stories. Too bad about the damage. Great vid. Thanks

[@RatdogDRB]

Thank the Lord your cabin was spared in the fires! Planning to cut a fire-break around it? Attack of the killer chickens! They're out to get you Andrew! At least it wasn't a bear messing around. Rudy's lookin' good. Don't feed the mosquitoes too much.

[@TheWildNorth]

Yeah I am going to cut a few spruce trees down around the cabin. And do some fire proofing. Years ago it was all fire proofed it really grew up though.

I never watched a hocky game in my life that sticker was on the door from the previous owner of the door.

Hope you and Ben can get out and catch some fish. That 20 lb pike is waiting for you around the corner. 🐟

[@TheWildNorth]

I will finish that series eventually I promise you that!

[@TheWildYam]

Woodland Uber eats! Nice work on the cabin. Glad it was spared in the fires.

[@user-kvnMN]

The fires were not that far up into Canada. I don’t know exactly the perimeters, I do know fires burned into United States. Upper Minnesota areas burned, the smoke carried all the way into Twin Cities; (Minneapolis and St Paul ).

[@TheWildYam]

@@user-kvnMN We had lots of fire in Canada. Burned 16.5 million hectares of land last year. Was a terrible.

[@TheWildNorth]

Three quarters of the nwt is burned from last years fires

Hi friend yes I agree it looks very nice it will be nice wen it is done!

[@rodfroelich5908]

Andrew, so great to see you and father that you're well. Now its summer, wr have to see you fish for pike and make bannock. You should try dipping bannock into haw breakers for flavor. You are surely missed.

[@TheWildNorth]

Now with this 360 camera fishing videos will be on the way inwont miss a shot!

[@davidraines1380]

Andrew I got to camp in Vermont one day and found a ruffle grouse had gone through a window and was still alive. We had to chase it down and it was dinner also

Was it a ruffled grouse?

[@brinkee7674]

I was on a flight out of Orlando in a WWII Texan(I think) back in the 90s and the pilot was an old WWII vet pilot. We took a chicken through the wind screen and oh what a mess. Blood and feathers everywhere. The old man landed like a champ and apologized to me. I said are you kidding, I have a memory for the rest of my life. I apologize to you as I know that wind screen is not cheap. He tried to return my flight fee, I said no and gave him an extra $150. I hope you eat the chicken. Happened to someone I know in Maine, froze solid on the ground. They ate maybe a month later after defrosting it

[@TheWildNorth]

That's a very interesting story my friend. Thanks for commenting.

[@JimBairdAdventurer]

Love your vids man!

Fast Food TheWildNorth Style! lol

[@vulcangunner58]

Good to see you back, Andrew. I like your style of log cabin, with the logs vertical. Is this a Canadian or Native style of structure? I never see that type here in the States.

[@TheWildNorth]

Wen inwas a teenager years ago I helped build 3 log cabins with the vertical logs and I liked that style. I was taught by a metis elder. I only seen a few around like that!

[@mikecollins8241]

Wasn't sure if YT wasn't showing me your videos, or you weren't uploading.. anyway, glad to see you back :)

[@riverrockranger812]

Run 1” white rope between the logs. Looks great. Might be i bit pricy though

[@TheWildNorth]

There's lots of big ropes from the boats in the shipyard just laying around. Maybe I will look into that thanks for the info!

Good to see the cabin is safe from the fire, now to save it from the ants! Do some youtube schooling on it. Might be some good tricks or hacks for ant removal. Keep us updated Rock n roll andrew

[@muskyhunter1535]

@@TheWildNorth let’s go. I will fish with you.

[@brinkee7674]

Sanding would go quicker if you used a rough grit(maybe 80) then finish with finer grit. Seems like more work but I would have that done in 2 to 3 days. Looks like you had a random orbital sander

[@TheWildNorth]

I had 40 and 60 grit paper. If you could do that in 2 or 3 days your highered. Cabin is 16 ft by 24 ft. I'm open to ideas how to go abouts the cracks between the logs.

[@brinkee7674]

@@TheWildNorth Depends on what your looking for with the chinking. I've used many through the years like Log Jam, Mortar Match, Perma Chink which need to be used with backing rod(filler). Otherwise you can go with old method of Two parts Portland cement, one part oakum, one part random grass found on the ground or moss. The first group should last the longest and is easy to use but will cost substantially more. The first group is flexible so it expands and contracts well unlike the stiff Portland

[@PaulyOutdoors]

@@TheWildNorth I don't know if you have or know anyone who may have one, but if you could get a belt sander with 40 grit...that would make that job super easy and quick. If the finish product is too rough, you can always go back over it with something like 80 to polish it up smooth with the orbital. Not sure about the gaps in the wood walls....I guess the quickest way to fill it in would be to spray expanding foam into it like you did the windows. Then cut out the excess and sand it down flat maybe? If I had my passport, I'd drive up there with all of my tools to help you out in a second! I'd have to stop and pick up Uncle Gary on my way though :)

[@andrewmcdonald8783]

Great story about accidents with wildlife! Too bad when the 'locals' are pushing you on the home improvements....

When did the swearing language start? Surprised to hear it from you. Otherwise good to get back in the woods with you. Ants are there due to the rotten wood from water leakage.

gonna do the 20# pike challenge again this year?
