Off Grid Cabin Living: -35F Dangerous Cold Temps And Deep Snow

We are having ourselves a cold snap with severe cold temperatures at the off grid cabin. #cabin #offgrid #homesteading

[@bbbaaa976]

Probably the best Ryan's kzbin.infoUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans on building a shed is hardly ever found. And Ryan takes the mystery out of different types of foundation options, etc. He even shows how to build a shed with different designs. Very comprehensive, covering different roofing materials, siding, etc.

That was awesome 👌

People from warmer climates will never understand the wonders of frigid weather. It’s so peaceful. The smell of burning wood. The crunch of the snow under your feet. And a cup of hot cocoa as you sit beside the fire.

I love that you brought the chickens inside. Shows your true character. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@bhpalmer]

love the way this guy cares for his chickens.

[@nancyl3843]

You brought your chickens in for the night. And this is why we love you. God bless you, Kyle.

[@brett19890]

He should set up a heating pad for the chickens in the coop. Not that hard to do.

[@sandraewers178]

Yes and he took them to the outback cabin. Sweetness in the mountains

[@markm477]

I can't explain enough how much I love these videos. The peace, quiet and tranquil remoteness, and the escapism it gives us viewers. What is even better is Kyle never ONCE, pleads us to "like and subscribe", he simply enjoys what he is doing. The anti-youtuber youtuber 😄 And I have no words left for Skeeter, despite decapitating Santa, he is the absolute dog of dogs.

[@andreadejarnette6733]

O kyle, I was so concerned about those chickens! I am so happy you brought them in.

So glad you brought the chickens in for the night - Happy New Year - All the Best for 2022 - Thanks for sharing....

You are so sweet how you take care of your chickens,good on you for being so kind we could do with more people like you in this world.Your dog is so beautiful.

Don’t the chickens get too cold , is my question ??

[@ashleighjaimaosborne3966]

Thank you for looking after the chickens so well. Happy New Years to you and yours. 🇨🇦

[@tastyfrzz1]

Yep, growing up by leech lake we'd put up seventy cords of wood per year to heat the house, Milkhouse, and water heater for the cows. The cows kept the barn pretty warm. It would get to -30° F quite often in the winter but you'd still have to clean the barn the next morning. Only problem was that the air would get so dry and cause nose bleeds. Have to keep water cooking on the stove.

[@wagen_blast]

“Warmed up to -17” … you Minnesotans are built different!

[@UncaDave]

You are a good Chicken Dad to take them in the house. What a guy! That’s the only way to be with you livestock. I used to put my cattle in the barn when it got cold. Their bodies actually warmed it up. Great work, Kyle!

[@juliannedispain1637]

Shoveling snow is so hard. Your chickens look comfy and still laying eggs is good. Skeeter is awesome. He needs a book deal..A Day in the Life of Skeeter. Another awesome video and Happy New Year!

Of course you took the Chickens inside , that made me smile as does the way they ignore their furry friend joining them in the coop . Love your videos , Happy New Year to all of you x

Those 3 eggs found in the kennel was those chickens way of saying Thank You for bringing us in last night and not letting us freeze, mighty decent of you, have an omelette on us.

[@williamwilliam728]

I always tell people when it gets down to -40 in our Alberta town, "well at least there's no mosquitoes!" Silver lining in everything. Your love for the chickens is impressive...hopefully you'll get that chance to pass on such love and caring to a few Kyle and Kylie Jr's. haha

[@ConservativeVet84]

I was thinking same thing here in Montana...-30 F...no mosquitoes

[@darrellcaruk8880]

Im living in Central Alberta Canada , were having the same cold temps here. Got my wood stove on 24/7. Burning nothing but dry birch. Great Video by the way. You are in your Element. Oh another thing , if you put some sort of window coverings on. It helps a bit .

[@markholmes1346]

That was a informative video showing the daily routine that you have to go through on a remote property, stoking the fire, tending to the chickens frequently, boiling water frequently, starting your vehicle, charging your solar batteries, a lot of different things people take for granted, thanks for showing us what it’s all about! Happy new year Kyle, Cierra and of course Skeeter! Have you had any wildlife on your trail cams? Kuddos to you and your lifestyle, love your work ethic, keep it up young man

[@gupers4680]

The woodstove with glass door is nice. Some suggestions: If you do not hive firebrick lining on bottom and about 1/2 way up the sides and back wall it is definitely worth adding. A masonry blade in a skillsaw can cut the pieces to fit. Another thing is NOT TO MAKE ALL SMALL STICKS of wood. Leave some larger or "fatter", same length. They will take longer to burn, less repeat filling of woodstove. Use damper on your metal pipe chimney to regulate burn speed. Yeah, I put heat lights out for my chickens here in ID mountains. Add straw, cheaper than alphalfa (or whatever) and chickens can be warmer and like to eat straw as well. Where is Kitty? I am trying to train my cat to be "OK" in cargo-trailer-camper, similar to Kitty. Make a shelf by under any window and Kitty will like it. Cheers.

[@jlustar2801]

You are so good to the chickens Kyle. 🥰 they are lucky to have you guys

[@sueyates3555]

That's really nice that you brought your chickens in the house. And Skeeter is so good with them. Also glad your car started. And if I was younger I would be living the same life.

[@gbp3616]

Bigger split wood might prevent so many fire stokes through out the night

[@bobstewart4342]

unsplit lasts longest

[@gbp3616]

@@bobstewart4342 doesnt burn worth sht

[@reidcaron6408]

He needs a damper in the stove pipe so he can shut it down. It makes a big difference.

[@gbp3616]

@@reidcaron6408 for sure but those logs also look one swing away from being kindling

[@nunofyourbizness5975]

Its a tradeoff. If the logs are bigger you get less heat but have to add less frequently. If they're smaller cut you get more heat and less time. You pick your battles.

[@patriciafoster3347]

And I love the chickens. And this is my favorite cabin in the snow video ever!

[@susanharold7290]

I have never seen seen snow, I appreciate the lengths you go through to show those who never experience it.thank you very much Kyle....my son's name is Kyle too.

Where in the world are you, Susan?

[@mikeoutdoors4729]

Awesome progress. Love how you stained the chicken coop and added the chicken picture above it. Very nice

[@wvob6752]

Love the dog and the chickens. Worry about the chickens in the cold weather. Oh, you brought them in. Great. Fresh eggs are the best.

[@valerieforsyth8278]

If you park with the engine facing the sun, the motor and windshield have a better chance of warming up a little when the sun comes up.

[@herbertwerner2287]

I think that's what makes being off grid great... its seriously cold outside but your nice and toasty inside. Free heat can't beat that.

[@MsCarmaJ]

Skeeter and the chickens, I feel a mini series coming soon. Happy new year Kyle, Cierra and Skeeter.

[@douggibson9084]

Thanks 👍 Kyle . Keep the girls warm, you and Skeeter stay warm as well.

Hi Kyle, my first video with you, new sub, 71 years old and living in SW Ontario and I don't know how you can stand that cold, brrrr. Sometimes we get 12 overnight and I find that cold but then again I'm kinda tiny, 5ft and weigh about 80 lbs,. lol! Happy New Year, love your dog, so cute bounding through the snow!

[@covenant58]

I love how you live. Your video's are so refreshing.

Happy New Year to you Cierra and Skeeter! I'm in upstate SC and it was 76 here today. My best friend lives in Chanhassen, MN and he's enjoying -7 today. God bless you all... ❤️🇺🇸❤️

[@DiddlyPenguin]

Kyle those are lucky chickens. U really care for them. 😁. & as for Skeeter still totally mad. I hope it warms up a bit soon 😁

[@dbrunecz78]

i love everything you're doing here, but you should try to get those solar panels at least 2 - 3 feet off the ground to help keep the snow off, being black i'd expect unless its really cold most snow would melt slightly and slide off on its own with even a little sun light. being on the ground if it slides off it just piles up at the bottom, requiring you come along and clean it off

[@rebeccapratt3089]

Alll to say is you a good young man,God Bless,the way you tend to care for all around you,blessings will come

[@suemurphy1730]

Those chickens are really good producers.Cold, being moved, change of surroundings. They are definitely worth their weight in gold (eggs).

This is my first time watching one of your videos. I really enjoyed it. Stay safe, warm and God bless.

[@markmorris3579]

You want to try using a shop broom to clear the snow off the solar panels.

[@ositagordita8550]

Love Skeeter! Hope you get a well-stocked wood shed before next winter!! ✌(close to the house 😁)

[@JDOff-Course]

Yep way to cold for me but great to see you and Skeeter are enjoying it. He really does good with those chicks too. I used to have chickens at my house before I sold it. Do miss getting those eggs from the coup. The cabin is looking great. Can’t wait to see the porch project and anything else you come up with. Y’all stay warm!

[@sandfan1]

Originally from Wisconsin and boy, this takes me back. I couldn't handle that anymore, but I do like the memories of when I could.

[@dougdiplacido2406]

Happy New Year to you , Skeeter and Cierra. You do a great job of surviving in the elements.

[@disco4535]

I wonder if you could build a box (out of insulation board, or wood and regular insulation), inside the chicken coop that they can all fit into and huddle together if they get too cold? That way it wouldn't take much insulation and all their heat can fill that smaller area. Thing is, like you told me before, they can withstand really cold temps so they might not need it much, maybe 3 - 5 times a year. So not sure if it'd be worth it or not, or if there is even enough space inside the coop. Of course taking them inside the house is cheap, really quick and easy too lol

[@CavemanCBB]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Great video. Amazing soul you are taking care of the chickens and skeeter. Glad you got a 17 below heat wave. :)

[@loganthomas857]

I live outside of Dallas Tx, when it gets in the 30s people start freaking out LOL. I’ve always wanted to spend a winter where they get snow for a month. Keep the videos coming.

[@edwinlipton]

Know exactly what you mean, spent over half my life in a place I really didn't belong, Midland, Texas till I moved into the Cascades 2 yrs+ ago. It was -3 @ 7:30 this morning and 38F. Inside😰. Didn't have any wood left that early. Its 68F now inside -1 outside tonight. Kinda like the thought of being thrown of the planet a popsicle, like ole skeeter throws a tick off his back.🤣🤣

I absolutely love it. I have been in my cabin in Mammoth Lakes, Ca elevation 8,000ft. After some record setting snowfall for December 2021....173 inches...the temps dropped last night (New Year Eve/Morn) to zero F. I have never experienced -35F but have seen 20 below. I normally call Phoenix, AZ home....So good to see cold temperatures again. Happy New Year.

[@UneakTershai]

Thanks for sharing your day with us. I have no idea what goes on in these parts of the country. Interesting to see. ☃️💕✨

[@barfass]

Do you use larger round logs on the fire before you go to bed? That is the way I was always taught. It takes much longer to burn through a round log than a split one. If you were to put 2 nice sized log pieces in, you may be surprised what you have in the morning on those cold nights. Maybe you already do that? Cheers man.

[@annef6345]

You should put boots on your dogs feet. He has them too cold too. Happy new year!

[@lynsmith2698]

We just came out of a deep freeze up here in northern BC coldest was -38C it’s kinda brutal at those temperatures. On the upside. We could also throw hot water in the air and watch it turn to snow. We also got up a few times during the night to keep the fire going. You always appreciate -10C when the temperatures come up. Happy New Year

My wife and I really enjoy your channel. Very informative and entertaining. Skeeter is cool!
