THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Alone and Kenai
I want to explain the dedication part of the video. I had limited footage to work with (for the main construction part) because of all the people and visitors that came to the property over the previous week. So I wanted to do something for everyone that had commented about losing someone close recently. A couple are CZcams channels I watch that may be going through a tough transition. Some are regular viewers and commenters like you that have told me how my channel helps. The scenery of the plane ride was a longer segment of the video for all to enjoy but dedicated to all those who have experienced a recent loss of family or friends. I highlighted a few that I had taken notes on while reading the comment section. Please know that I read all comments on every video I post and I apologize that I cannot get back to all of them! But I sure do try!
Buenos Dias Seule , I really like the new roofline on the artic entry .. I convert old barns here in Europe.. Bunty recently experienced flying for the first time too so your film watched with much interest . We are all tanning here .. you don't like the sun ? you do look pinker before you put the white on .. Buntys gone sort of Mexican gringo bear and Dorks just bare apart from his loin cloth ..Septic sends kisses and wishes you well ...
Thats admirable, shows that you are a person of integrity!
Wow, when our state is in a severe fire hazard all over you are shooting off fireworks, and shooting them off in a remote place where it would be hard for firefighters to get to before it got out of hand? Yeah good thinking all around huh
@@fredinalaska I understand Fred. We just had a break of almost 30 days of rain. We made sure all fireworks were extinguished after. Thank you Fred! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska gotcha, I saw that and was like wtf am I watching lol
I see now how I'm older and disabled and will never have that dream alaska come true. Thank you for letting me continue to a least dream!
Jerry it is an honor to have you along for my journey here! I promise to show you as much of Alaska as I possibly can! Thank you so much Jerry!
I never realized how beautiful the State of Alaska is until I came across your videos. Thank you for opening up a whole new world 🌎 to me. 🌲🌳🏔💖🏔😀⛰ Carri from Ohio
Oh yeah Alaska is as beautiful as it gets! And I moved here from Colorado! I plan to show a lot more of Alaska so I hope you will stick around! Thank you so much Carri Ann!
This video feels spiritual. Almost makes me cry. Thank you for providing us
Ahhhh Thank you so much Jackie! The plane ride over that much scenery will change you that's for sure! 🧡
The new roofline looks awesome. The flight was amazing. Thanks for taking me along for the adventures you are having in Alaska. Take care and be safe.
Just wait until you see tomorrows video! The construction is coming along nicely! I am so glad you enjoyed the video and the flight. That was just so amazing! And I am scared of flying too! You are always welcome here!
Busy busy over there!!!! Can't wait to see everything when it's finished!
Should be all done in a week or two! I cant wait to get my silence back!! LOL :-) Thank you so much Amanda!
That was really nice of you to have a birthday celebration for your contractor. I'm sure he really appreciated it. I loved the flying portion. I grew up around the smaller, non commercial planes. In fact, my dad just had his 50th anniversary of having his private pilot's license. The scenery & music you coordinated was so beautiful. Awesome job! I love the root cellar idea.
Hey Lauri! My contractor is really going all out on this construction project! It is amazing to see my cabin just transforming. It was nice to meet some new faces too. Everyone had a great time! I had cake! I haven't had cake in years! Being up in that small plane was nerve racking but the pilot did an awesome job! Landed the plane so smoothly too! I have to give credit to private pilots! What a risky job they do! So insanely necessary up here in Alaska too. RESPECT to your dad! I am so happy you enjoyed the video! And that root cellar is so big! The possibilities are endless! So much to think about! Thank you so much Lauri! I am really enjoying your channel too!
Hi Alone, thank you so much for your time in responding to my comments and questions. It was lovely to hear from you directly, which is amazing and makes me feel 'connected'. Sending lots of love for your journey and looking forward to your updates. Keep safe 🥰🥰🥰
I enjoyed responding to your questions Christine! I am always grateful when anyone has questions about anything I do here! It shows interest and that is awesome to me. I never thought anyone would even want to watch my videos in the first place! LOL! Amazing subscribers like you, is why I do this channel! Thank you so much Christine and I hope to see you in the comments often! 🧡
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska thank you Alone xx
I lived in Alaska for 21 years (bailed out in 2011) and just have to say how truly impressive it is that you managed to find an awesome and dedicated contractor/crew. The guys are knocking it out and making fantastic progress during this relatively short window of time to get SO much accomplished. Such a valuable relationship/connection to foster. The work they are doing is going to make an enormous difference this coming winter. Wishing you all the best on your Alaskan adventures. eta: Root cellar issues to consider. Rodents can and will chew through plastic storage containers. I suggest investing in metal trashcans filled with sand as your best bet against the little beasts. Give some very serious consideration to your chosen method of pest control. While poison is tempting, there's always the possibility Kenai will come in contact with a poisoned critter.
I lucked out finding my contractor for sure! He is very detailed and professional. Anyone would be happy with his craftmanship. He and his crew will be back for many more future projects guaranteed. If he is ever out in this area hunting or snow machining and needs a place to crash for the night, I told him that he and his family can always use the bunkhouse if needed. I am just happy that this roof will not be creaking and popping like the old roof. I swear that old roof was so close to collapsing! As for anything going to the root cellar, metal is king! Trashcans or barrels. No plastic or cardboard allowed! I want any mice that find their way into my root cellar to be very upset and leave. If not I currently use a flour/baking soda mix on the mice. They love the flour but cannot burp the baking soda so they literally explode inside. Kenai has no interest in it but even if he did, dogs can burp! And this little mutt sure can burp if he wants too! So no plans to ever return to Alaska? Thank you so much Crystal!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska I fly up from time to time to visit with family. Now happily settled on 5 acres in NE WA, enjoying 4 seasons and growing a big garden. I lived in a homesteader's flat-roofed cabin for the first few years up there and remember the first time I heard that old roof pop and crack. Just about jumped out of my skin. Then there was the time when a bat flew through one of the only windows that actually opened. Had to get that thing OUT of the house using an old fishing net. Good times and always a challenge when you least expect it.
They built cabins with just about anything they could get their hands on - which wasn't much! You can't beat the charm though and it's a joy to see you working on saving your place from being taken by the elements. Keep going, girl!
@@crystalmontgomery-yantzie2638 I am hoping this will be the last place I ever live. I want to spend the time and money in making it right, now. So when I get older I can appreciate everything more and maybe relax a bit! LOL :-) I don't mind bats at all! As long as they stay out of my cabin!! It sure is amazing how some of these cabins were built. Most of the abandoned cabin are collapsed or beyond saving. At least my cabin was looked after even though it did sit for 6 years unoccupied. :-)
ALASKA IS BREATHTAKING!!!
RIGHT!? Even though I live here, I still am in awe at the beauty! Everyone should visit Alaska at least once! Thank you so much Lisa!
I have been so busy with my own home improvements, then helping my mom with some of hers, and now nursing lower back pain as a result, that I missed this when it first came out! But, as I sit here on a heating pad, I was able to enjoy watching this video, and all the beautiful scenery!
Thank you!
....and, God bless!
Hey that's ok Sharon! Sounds like you were just as busy! Nothing like a hot bath to fix that back pain! LOL! :-) And then you had one of my videos to watch!! I have one uploading now too! It's slow going though! Sorry! So glad you enjoyed this video! That plane ride was absolutely incredible! Thank you so much! 🧡
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska ...My back is feeling better, but that is a good idea!
Looking forward to your next upload!
:):):)'s
Thank you so much for the beautiful plane footage! Just breathtaking. The mountain ranges and the patterns in the snow where no humans have stepped foot. We miss so much in the bustle of our lives. I never got to pursue my dreams because day to day life got in the way, then poof, here I am at 67and missed it all. So thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul for bringing us along with you. I can still make my dreams come true through you and your adventures. Give Kenai a big smooch on the nose for me and a scratch behind the ear. Stay safe, happy and healthy!
Ahhh well thank you Vanessa! It is an honor to have you along for my journey here! So glad you enjoyed the video! The plane footage was pretty incredible! A once in a lifetime opportunity for me! And Vanessa! You could still take an Alaskan Cruise! Ride the Alaska railroad! Or even take a flight over the mountains! Kenai got the kiss and the pet but is now demanding more! See what you started Vanessa! LOL! :-) Thank you so much! 🧡
The new roofline is a huge improvement. Your root cellar is massive. I would install spray foam insulation and install bear-proof doors. The decision on how to use that space is access dependent. Difficult to open doors with 6’+ snow load on them, so winter access is tough. If you could put in a staircase from above, then you can do all sorts of things. Install grow lights and grow cold weather veggies down there. Lots of pantry space!
Yeah, I’d definitely have an access door from within the house. It would even be a good place to hide if you thought you might need one.
She already said she’ll have access from inside.
Yes! I have the same footprint as my entire first floor! It's an unusually big root cellar! Access from the main floor will be installed this construction period. Stairs down. I will reinforce the outside access but keep it secured from the inside so it can be used as a fire escape if needed. I will have a backdoor installed so I can keep the snow off the hatch as well. I will go into more detail in the next video. Now that I will have access this year, I can monitor the temperatures to see if growing will work. I have no clue actually how cold it gets down there. Many shelves will be made for canning. Earthquake proof shelves! Thank you so much Deb!
@@toscadonna That and a fire escape if needed! Should have stairs to the root cellar in a week or two! Video will be made! Promise!
@@christinabeck9316 Certainly will! Stair access too! It will be a game changer to be able to get down there all year long now! Video will be coming as soon as its done! Thank you so much Christina!
Looks like descent weather for the home repairs, that helps. Wrangle mountains are awesome.
It’s definitely getting warmer now. We had about 30 days of rain! But everything should all be done in about two weeks! Two more rounds of construction to go! I absolutely love the Wrangell Mountains! And glad I got to see them from above finally! Thank you so much Scott!
So happy for you with the cabin repairs. Thank you for the beautiful scenic flight! No need to apologize for a week off.
Hello Barbara! I am very happy you enjoyed the video! I think I need a week off from that week off! LOL! Crazy busy! But that plane ride was a nice way to unwind and just be amazed! Thank you so much Barbara!
Really pleased to see your doing well as I was wondering about the video absence, glad it was just that your busy. Can’t get over how amazing the contractor and his guys are, their like mountain goats on the ladders and roof!😂. 🤗🇬🇧🙋🏻♀️x
Mountain goats! LMAO! So true though! I have to tell him that one! Yeah just too many people on the property and my coworker here. We still had to work M-F too! But it is good to be back editing and I will have an update video for you on Thursday! Thank you so much!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska 🤗
I usually don’t say much but I thoroughly enjoyed your video. It’s was absolutely beautiful and the music you picked was perfect . I am looking forward to the videos about your cabin build and I’m sure everybody would love to hear more about you. I do know you are a kind and caring person working for a better life and you deserve it. You don’t have to respond to this message because I know you have enough on your shoulders at this time. I just wanted you to know that everybody thinks your a beautiful person and I feel we’re fortunate that you share your life with us. Thank you. 😊❤️
Ahhhhh Thank you so much Timothy! How could I not respond to such kind words! I thank you kindly for the compliments!🧡 I am very happy you enjoyed the video! I feel more fortunate that anyone at all is even interested in what I am doing! LOL :-) I had considered not doing CZcams because I was like "who would even want to watch this?" But because of viewers like you, I really want to make sure I upload a quality video. I thoroughly enjoy the interaction in the comments! I love my life here and hope I can show that! I hope I can teach anyone wanting this life to go live their dream! Doesn't have to be in Alaska. Doesn't even have to be remote! I really do appreciate your comment and even if you dont say much, I hope to see you in the comments often! Thank you so much! Thank you so much Timothy!
AWESOME music at the beginning of the flight!! Relaxing!!
So glad you enjoyed the video Kevin! Even though I am scared of flying, the flight was just awesome! Thank you so much!
Alaska is simply amazing. I couldn't live like you do, but what a gorgeous, immense state. Thanks for the aerial tour!
LOL! Yes this life is not for everyone that's for sure! I love it though! It was nice to see Alaska from the air! Even living here you just cant grasp how big Alaska is! I am very glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you so much!
Good content gas prices high people can’t take vacations This video was like vacation without the expense Thank you
HA! That's so awesome! Thank you so much Sandi!
The renovations are going to make a huge difference!
Hello Beth! It will be nice to not have to worry about the roof creaking and popping and leaking! But just the look of my cabin has changed too! Wait until you see the update tomorrow!
Cabin looking good! Thanks for sharing the progress! And the flight was just beautiful! 🙏💕
Thank you so much Diane! The plane ride was awesome! I am so happy you enjoyed the video!
Off Grid Homesteading with Boss of the swamp had great content for solving much of your homesteading questions. We used him for help building our cabin in the Tennessee woods. Love your content, look forward to your cellar/pantry
JC and Lori are without a doubt the "OG's" of homesteading. I would rank JC right under Dick Proenneke. I have learned a lot from his channel! For anyone reading this comment you can find Boss here czcams.com/video/_qRWw4ihuD8/video.html As for the root cellar, I have so many possibilities, it's almost confusing! LOL :-) I have some really good ideas though! Thank you so much Cee Jay!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska we love him and I am so glad I found your channel as well. As we are finishing our cabin in TN we have used a number of his suggestions. As you complete your ceiling. Watch his for insulating the roof, Works wonderfully. I can’t wait to see your cellar! That is an incredible opportunity. So very proud of your courage, determination and independence.
@@cbenji2 JC is where I am getting my knowledge from on insulation. He gets a lot of flack for only using bubble foil but has proven how good it is. I am most likely going to use bubble foil for my root cellar ceiling and maybe on the walls too as I can easily roll it up in sections to control the temperature. If you can't trust a person who has actually done it over and over, who can you trust? LOL! And I love their humor! I think that's why I started doing skits. JC has cracked me up so many times with his wackiness!
Mice and rat’s love insulation. That crew is sure doing a great job. That’s what I need here is a crew of people.
What a big job. That place is going to be beautiful when there done. 👊
Have a wonderful day to you and the crew..!!
Hey Ron! One thing is certain! It's either me or the mice! Since the cabin sat for 6 years unoccupied, the mice kind of had a field day under the cabin. OBVIOUSLY But their days are numbered now! I have managed to kill off most so the smell of droppings, urine and death was just so awesome! NOT! Time to get down there now and scrub!! That root cellar is definitely going to get used proper. Every time I see your root cellar I remember drawing up plans to do exactly what you did! I asked the contractor if he did work in California! He said you are a bit out of his area!
I had not viewed your channel for 6 months. Decided to catch up, glad I did.
6 months worth of videos is a lot to catch up on Paul! 😁 It's awesome to see you back! 🤗🧡
Great video,can’t wait to see the finished cabin! Absolutely love your channel!!!❤
Ahhh Thank you so much Kerry! And I love viewers that comment! I am so happy you are enjoying my channel! I love to hear that! New update video should be out tomorrow! :-) 🧡
Hello thank you again for a great view from the ski of Alaska ! And the progress of the renovation of your cabin. Looking forward to your next video.
Thank you so much Amy! So glad you enjoyed the video! I am working on Thursdays video now! More construction updates!
Hello. I am following you from London, UK. I have binged watched all of your videos over the past few days and am now up to date. I was really surprised when you came up on my feed and am truly glad that you did. I am finding your channel so, so interesting and so far removed from my own lifestyle. I really admire you for what you are doing and achieving. I am in awe of you. It's not something a lot of people could do. You have obviously been planning this for a very long time and from what you have told us, you have a lot of experience of being out in the natural countryside, camping, touring etc. I am amazed at how you are so organised, resilient and how you prepare yourself on a daily basis, going forward. You have a lot on your hands and every minute of your day is spent doing. Do you get much time to chill. Kenai is fabulous and wonderful company for you. I will look forward to your further installments and wish you all the very best with your new build and the reorganisation of your home once complete. Stay safe, keep well and good luck with all you do and i shall be following along the way. A couple of questions. How do you deal with your waste? e.g..Toilet, rubbish, etc. How far is your nearest neighbour? If you needed help in an emergency, do you have a radio or just the internet/phone? What is your long term plan..are you hoping to remain living as you are indefinitely? What possible reasons would make you decide to move back to 'civilisation'. Are your family following your channel and what do they think of your lifestyle now?
Well hello there Christine! Thank you so much for the compliments! I am really glad you found my channel! And that you are still here even after watching all my videos! LOL! :-) I have been planning this life for many years for sure. So much research and then actually applying what I learned in my daily life when I lived in the "city". Gardening, cooking with cast iron, fishing, canning you name it. Never got around to big game hunting though because I ran to Alaska as fast as I could! 😉 Working a full time job, living this life and doing CZcams does take up all of my time but I do get a rare occasion to just sit back and enjoy the silence with Kenai! Until he starts snoring anyway! 🤣 So lets see about answering your questions!
Toilet is a 5 gallon bucket I use in the cabin. I can empty it in the outhouse though. Trash gets burned but recyclables get taken to a transfer station (dump) or I will take them to town and most of the big stores have recycle bins.
My nearest neighbor is about 7-8 miles away by road. In an emergency, I can call 911 like anyone else but it ay take them some time to get to me! That is why I stress the first aid. I would like the EMT's to at least finally get to me with a pulse. I will also have a cleared out area for helicopter landing. Nothing too fancy just a clearing. But I do have two cell phones that get adequate reception. My plan is to get a satellite phone this year. I can get a VHF radio and possibly a CB radio in my vehicle.
Long term plan is to get everything I need built so I can just maintain and live until I die. I do plan to die here. There is nothing that would convince me to move back to civilization. NOTHING! 😁My family does watch my videos and they support my life here. I have been talking about it for so long, they probably are glad I just went finally! But I have found that I talk to them a lot more now than I ever did in Colorado.
Hopefully I answered all of your questions but please feel free to ask anything you like! Probably best to start a new comment though. Replies to my replies usually get lost in the shuffle! Thank you so much Christine and welcome to my journey! 😄
Gorgeous views of Wrangell mountains. Thank you for the footage.
I love those mountains! I could stare at them all day! AND sometimes I seem to do just that! When they show up anyway! 😁
Really cool work on the cabin. Nice remodeling job.
But that flight over the mountains, WOW 😲. I absolutely love Alaska and that was a nice viewing that most will not get to see.
Thank you for sharing 👍
Have a Blessed Day 🙏
My contractor is really doing an incredible job! That flight was most likely a once in a lifetime opportunity for me and it was so incredible to see what's practically in my backyard! So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much Rich! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska You are welcome 👍
I'll be watching the flight again. There's a lot to take in. LoL and I know that the camera can not even come close to showing what you actually saw. Still, very beautiful ❤️ I really appreciate your sharing this. I've wondered why there's ia lot more of this on utoob Alaska has so much to offer.
Wonderful to find a video from you this morning. Looks like Alaska has fully embraced Spring. Good to see the progress on the cabin roof. I am sure you will be happier when that project is well behind you and your solitude returns. As for your root cellar... are you planning first floor access to that space? Remain well and strong. K
Hello Kayt! Oh yeah! Spring/Summer is here! It's taking some time to adjust to these warmer temps! Someday soon Kayt I will hear nothing but the wind, the trees, the birds and Kenai snoring! Access to the root cellar from the main floor will be happening this construction period. Stairs down as well. I opted not to do the rope climb up or down! :-) Video will be coming once that gets installed!
I know your doing the reno for you and it is looking great so far. I must say, if I was the previous owner I would be thrilled that you are putting so much love and money into it. It was their dream and now it is yours. The ride over the countryside reminded me of our small plane ride when we were in Alaska. Totally stunning! God bless and stay safe.
I promised the previous owners I would not be tearing the cabin down and rebuilding. I said I would fix her as is! They loved this property and so do I! Someday they may stop by to see their old cabin and I will be proud to show them what I have had done! They will love it! Alaska misses you Brenda!
Root cellar. Those metal storage racks with the roller wheels are the best. I store dried things in glass jars with metal lids to discourage mice.
Otherwise you have enough room down there for a casino or bowling alley. :)
Hello Bob! Casino or bowling alley! LMAO! But you are correct! It's a large area and it's nice and cool. For sure I will be canning this year and can store all of it down there. Root veggies in sand too! Everything will be metal for storage but probably wood shelving with a lip, padding and bungee cords. I have to make sure they are "earthquake proof"! Maybe a meat and fish processing area? And I can use that cool air to cool down the cabin somewhat! These 70-80 degree days are killing me! LOL! :-) Thank you so much BOB!
Was so worth the wait. Glad you have had time to do something for yourself.
Ahhh thank you so much Sarah! It was fun but I am ready for my peace and quiet again! LOL! :-)
seeing you fix up the cabin... makes me feel a whole lot better about your solo endeavor out there..
Me too Deborah! That roof probably would not have made it through another winter! And what was with that paper mache front door! Like a porcupine could have knocked that door down! My cabin will be far more secured and structurally sound now! It was a tough winter! :-) Thank you so much Deborah!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska I will be praying for you ... cause we can all use the extra help.. ;o) Lord.. keep her strong and courageous and close to you I pray.
Your flyover of the moraine was amazing.
That was a once in a lifetime opportunity and I loved every minute of it! I would recommend it to anyone in Alaska! Resident or visitor. :-)
So nice to see the cabin progress. Lots getting done. Hope you can get inside access to your root cellar. So many options for such a big space. I always think about getting things off the ground like shelving.
Nice you could spend some downtime with your coworker.
Thanks for sharing. Safe adventures to you and Kenai. 💖
Root cellar will have inside stair access put in about a week. I will definitely show it on video as soon as it is done. I will have some "earthquake proof" shelving installed. Braced to the ceiling and have a lip, bungee cords and padding. My coworker and I still had to work M-F but we had some free time to go out and enjoy some of Alaska. I hope she enjoyed it but she always wanted to see Alaska! More updates coming this Thursday! Stay tuned! Thank you so much Deborah!
Thanks for the wonderful hospitality, and the work opportunities that is keeping my kiddo fed! Ive been reassigned to other work :*( but wanted to say that it was great to make a new friend and if i dont see ya again in this life, ill see ya in the next one ;)
Ahhhh yes I heard! You are always welcome here and you know how to get a hold of me! Who knows what work I may need done in the future! Thanks for your help in my videos and I am sure you will be in them again!
This was absolutely breath taking. It was my husband’s and my dream to live in Alaska but kids, grandkids, aging parents and now our health issues have prevented it. Love your channel. I have been binge watching it for the past few days. ❤
Hello from arizona. Good to see things moving up in the world. Good to see everything is going together.
It is definitely coming together finally! Roof is solid! Other projects getting done as well. I will have an update video tomorrow! Stay tuned! Thank you so much!
Nice to see u, great vigil too!!
Those men got hard work ahead. Shout out to the boys!-💙
Wait until you see the progress on the next video! Looks like a different cabin! These guys are really doing an awesome job! They read the comments!
Wow they're doing an amazing job on your house !! They sure work hard - It's gonna be beautiful ! Love your videos :)
My contractor is top notch for sure! I am very lucky to have found him! This round of construction should be done in about two weeks! Two more rounds (two years) to go! Thank you so much
Great video, well worth the wait. Excellent progress on the roof 👍...even most excellent to go sightseeing on the flight thru the mountains with you. Beautiful, especially enjoyed Mother Nature's art throughout the snow drifts and glaciers along the way. Great footage! Thank you for sharing your journey, looking forward to more! ✌️❤️🌞 🇨🇦
I am very happy you enjoyed the video Stephanie! Some of the beauty I saw up there I may never see again! It was such an incredible flight! Looks like the construction will be wrapping up in about two weeks! Then its all about getting ready for winter!! Thank you so much!
Thank you for the beautiful movie… it is certainly not the Alaska I experienced, but gorgeous nonetheless . Such a pleasure,!
Thank you so much Almarita! I am so happy you enjoyed the video! I hope your visit to Alaska was a good one! I will have a new video up tomorrow!
Good morning, (it is morning in New Zealand), watching your progress and really enjoying it. What a stunning landscape, thankyou for sharing. Great to see the work on the Cabin going so well, you will feel more secure with the new roof (warmer as well) and the access to the root cellar, a big area for a root cellar but great for long term storage, good you will not have to go outside to get to it. I enjoy the videos, keep up the good work and hope the rest of your rebuild goes trouble free for you.
I am very happy you are enjoying my channel! all the way from New Zealand too! So cool! New Zealand is some beautiful country! The cabin construction is going great! I will have anew update video tomorrow! And my cabin better be warmer this winter! LOL :-) This was a lot of work! Access to the root cellar from the inside is a game changer! I will have access to a very large usable space finally! Construction will be done in a week or two! Then I start planning for next years construction! LOL! :-) Thank you so much!
beautiful scenery over the mountains of McCarthy; I can't wait to see what else your doing.....
Hello Tracy! The Wrangell mountains are so breath taking! And then to see them from above! Incredible! I have so many more videos planned! So much to do here! Stay tuned! Thank you so much Tracy!
Have enjoyed watching the progress of your cabin. Also, enjoy seeing the beauty of Alaska.
Thank you so much Linda! Wait until you see tomorrows episode! My cabin just looks so different now! It's like remote cabin 2.0. It's so awesome to see this old cabin get the upgrades she deserves and will now outlive me! Hopefully this will become a generational property. The beauty of Alaska just surrounds me from all sides! I cant even believe I live here. I want to show everyone my life and the awesome scenery as much as I can! Thank you Linda!
Great way to start my day . Was worth the wait . Video was very good, like a travel magazine . Thank you. Watch next Thursday.
Ahhhh thank you so much John! So glad you liked the video! I will be here on Thursday for sure! Well unless I lose power again! LOL! :-)
Awsome views. That tin can with wings looked like it's seen its better days though. Lol 🙂
The pilots out here keep these planes in top working order! Thankfully! LOL :-) I have yet to see a new(ish) plane out here though! LOL! Thank you so much Ray!
We were stationed at Ft. Wainwright in Fairbanks for three years. I remember once spring/summer came, the mosquitoes were EVERYWHERE!! We used to joke calling them Alaskas state bird 😜
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!! And yes! How can something so darn big be called a mosquito?? Any bigger and we could gut them for eating! I still cant understand how something so big can bite you without you knowing! GRRRRRR!! Thank you so much!
Can’t wait to see the cabin finished Looks great so far 👍🥰👍
Hello Cindy! Just wait until you see tomorrows update! The cabin is looking awesome! I'm so excited!
Awesome contractor doing some great work. Congratulations. I encourage you to set the place up as an air b&b. With your own area. Think about adding a couple more bathrooms upstairs and using what you consider the winter entrance as a master suite for you. It’s big enough you could have a mini kitchen.
I could offer the bunkhouse as an AirBnB but that would be last resort. I came up here for solitude. But I do have that option at least should I need it. The arctic entry could very easily be converted as well. There would need to be a lot of work to convert it as I don't know how popular a place would be that makes you use an outhouse or no private shower. Again, something I could always fall back on if needed. I'd rather just grow my channel and do that full time! LOL! At least I do enjoy that! Thank you so much Beverly!
Is it possible to like a video....more than once.....xxxxxthis is stunning ....thank you
HA! I wish! So glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you so much!
Thanks for the awesome flight! Good luck with the reno. 👍🇨🇦😎📷
The flight was amazing! And I hate those little planes! But this was a very nice trip. The video hardly does it any justice! Most of the renovations are completed this year. A few more will get done when my son arrives. Thank you so much Marian! 🧡🤗💚
Wow - that was a lot of rat crud. Definitely, it was a good idea to get that out of there. I might suggest spray foam for the ceiling and walls. That will insulate everything, and you shouldn't have the rodent issue, because there's no way for them to get behind spray-on foam. This work is a lot of manual labor. Those new support beams had a vast amount of weight. This place is getting the repairs that it desperately needed. Good job.
Loved the aerial shots. That's real wilderness.
LOL yeah the mice had full run of the place for 6 years as it was unoccupied. I may use spray foam for the ceiling since it is basically the main floor of the cabin. The walls may get bubble foil as I don’t want to block the cold for the root cellar but I may be able to control how cold it gets by just closing up some of the wall. But spray foaming all the entrance holes for sure! This cabin is old but she has a lot more life in her now! Glad you enjoyed the plane ride! I know I sure did! Thank you so much Mike!
Love you’re choices of music . Really talking to me …. Sound like nature of daylights .
Love you’re video ❤
Good morning
I just wanted to say Thank you 😀 I just luv you videos .
Thank you so much Lori! And I just love viewers/commenters like you!
Thank you for taking along
Thank you so much for watching and commenting Jacqulin!
Great video. Exciting to see the progress on the cabin. Beautiful scenery from the plan. Stay safe, have a great week.
So glad you enjoyed the video Angie! Thank you so much!
Spectacular and thank you!!! You are very sweet to let them know that you are thinking about them and now we can too. T
Thank you so much Tina! That plane ride was just so incredible that I wanted to dedicate the video to them! It was the least I could do! :-)
I absolutely love and miss Alaska so much. I’m trying to get back up there. I think I would use half of your root cellar for just that and the other half as a place to get my spring seedlings started. You could also use part of it to hang your meat. I’m so glad you put out a new video. The house is looking great !
Hello Denise! You have to get back here! Alaska misses you! With such a large root cellar, I have so many possibilities! But mostly for storing food for sure! Seed starts will definitely be happening. Maybe a meat and fish processing room! I will have a new video tomorrow too! So sorry for the late response! Thank you so much Denise!
Another “kid at heart” checking in. Did anyone else notice the smiley face cloud at about 16:50 in the upper right corner?
Alone, thank you sharing these amazing views. Stay safe and happy to know all is well with you and Kenai.
Blessings.
HA! I had to go watch it again and I saw it! Good catch! So glad you enjoyed the video Ana! Thank you so much!
I saw it!
This is a process for sure , building in general is a timely process. I am sure it will be worth the wait. Such beautiful landscape view. Thanks for sharing this beautiful journey ❤️ God Bless
I am so happy you enjoyed the video! The construction will be done in about 2 weeks? That will be just round one though. I think I have two more rounds coming. So two more years of projects to go! It is a lot to do! And what a beautiful place to have it done! The awesome scenery just surrounds me! I am very lucky to be living here! Thank you so much!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska yes you are . I would be so happy there. I am building a tiny house and it’s a project worth it all.
@@TheGypsyNurse_ Now that sounds awesome! Tiny house videos on CZcams are so super popular! You should start a channel! I know I would be watching! :-)
Sorry, I am so slow this week. Taking a day off kinda. Your video of McCarthy sure brought back the memories. You see I trapped up there my first winter in Alaska in the 70's. Wow that road is an interstate now lol Back in the day from Chitina up was a full day adventure. Thank you so much for bringing back my memories.
You have been non stop go go go for awhile! You deserve a day off! So glad you enjoyed the video! And that I could help with that trip down memory lane! I bet it looked different in the 70's! That would have been cool to see! Thank you so much!
good morning from west palm beach, Florida. you live in the most beautiful place on earth. enjoy it all. good luck on the rebuild of roof. Mary
Thank you so much Mary! To live here is a dream come true for me! So is getting my cabin exactly the way I want it! LOL :-)
You go girlfriend, have fun
Like the way roof looks and nice scenery from the air
The new roof makes my cabin look new! I love it! That airplane ride was a once in a lifetime opportunity! I am glad I did it! 🧡
That's awesome to hear.
Glad I found your channel..I think you are living my dearm...Love your plans for your cabin..stay safe, my dear..
Thank you so much Melissa! I am very happy you found my channel! Live you dream Melissa! And until then, it is an honor to have you along for my journey! I will take care of the snow shoveling for you! LOL :-) New video coming out today! :-) 🧡
Love flying around Wrangell St Elias N.P :) beautiful, thank you for sharing.
This flight I took was stunning! And I swore I would never fly in one of those small planes! But I just couldn't help it! So glad I did and it was a trip of a lifetime for me! As you know, the video just doesn't do the Wrangell mountains any justice! Thank you so much! 🤗🧡
Thank you so much for this beautiful and educational video, what a big job, you are quite a strong and beautiful lady. I love this so much, the scenery is breathtaking. It is phenomenal. Take care and I can't wait to see your cabin finished. 🥳🥳🥳❤❤❤
Ahhh thank you kindly Johanna! I am very happy you enjoyed the video! The scenery from the plane were absolutely breathtaking! I will have a new video up on Thursday! Thank you so much
Beautiful scenery!!!! Glad youre also having fun!!!- Wrangell Mts is where John Denver liked to go.
I wont lie and say John Denver was one of my favorite singers but he did make a few legendary songs I like. I am conjuring up a CZcams short idea in my head now! LOL! The Wrangell Mountains has always been of interest to me. I can see why Mr Denver used to like the area. It really is (in my opinion) the most gorgeous part of Alaska. I will have more fun when all I hear is just the wind and the birds! And Kenai snoring of course! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska i went to all of his concerts at red rocks!!!!! Lolol
@@coloradopackratprepper I think he only played at Red Rocks didn't he? That is a wonderful stage to perform on! Great outdoor theater! :-)
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska yes i think only red rocks. I never went anywhere else for his concerts!!!!!
WOW, major construction. Pretty amazing what they have accomplished so far. with proper insulation the cabin should be much easier to heat and be much more like a home. You give it hell lady, props.
This property and cabin will get the make over it is due! I'm so anxious to get it all done but I know I have to do this in steps! So much more planned for the cabin and the property. But yes! A warmer cabin in winter is a good start! LOL! Thank you so much!
My dear lord that was absolutely beautiful - such incredible country - the last frontier for sure. McCarthy is where the show "Edge of Alaska" was filmed. Great video - take care.
The plane ride was certainly an eye opener for me! I know I live in the biggest state but to see it from that high up was just incredible! So much snow! When I was in McCarthy eating lunch, I did see Neil Darish (main character) from Edge of Alaska but I didn't speak to him. I am very happy you enjoyed the video Steve! Thank you so much
Glad you got to take some time for yourself, I love your content and don't want you getting burned out.
That new roof line would lend itself nicely to water collection if you are a rainbarrel kind of gal.
Things are looking great.
Hello Kevin! I will definitely be adding rain barrels for water collection but that has to wait until next year. Had to cut out the gutters this round due to the lumber prices for the roof. But that cabin roof sure is going to collect a lot of rain! That will be awesome! I wont get burned out of doing content. I really enjoy filming and editing! :-) Thank you so much Kevin!
Hi, Alone. Nice to see you again ! The workers are doing an excellent job; the new roof pitch looks brilliant-all the angles. I wonder if you can put in led grow lights and have some kind of indoor garden? You can start seedlings and have a place for canning and preserving. Also, a workshop - workbench area. Maybe rabbits or chickens ? Is that possible inside ? !
I admire your ambitious spirit and drive. I live in Montreal and my uncle once told me I should move up to Yellowknife. Not sure, but next year I'd like to find a rural property. Watching your progress and success at fulfilling your plans really helps me with my dreams. Thanks for showing us how it's done ! ' Off Grid with Doug and Stacey' is another great channel I like. Maybe you watch them ? ps.Kenai is such a nice dog, more of him too ! And more Dewey ! You're hilarious ! Take care. Mark.
Hello Mark! Rabbits or chicken inside is possible but their feed also attracts mice. Usually better to keep that away from the cabin. They sure would enjoy the heated area though! Grow lights for seed starts will happen for sure though inside. until I can get a heated greenhouse. Now that the roof has a metal surface I can start collecting rain. Next year. No gutters yet. I actually have been watching Doug and Stacy for many years! I got a lot of ideas from them! Kenai is a teddy bear! He is my shadow! Don't worry though. He gets spoiled rotten! LOL :-) I have heard a lot of good things about Yellowknife! LIVE YOUR DREAM Mark! If you don't, you just might regret it later! Thank you so much Mark!
I just finished watching your video. So relaxing and your cabin is going to be wonderful when everything is finished! This was just what I needed today. Enjoy your summer!
Ahhh Thank you so much Cindy! Four days late in responding! Sorry! So glad you enjoyed the video though! Another update coming up on Thursday! I am enjoying the summer but these 70 degree days are killing me! LOL :-)
The people in Alaska are friendly and helpful, part of what I miss about living there.
And even the unfriendly ones are helpful! LOL! It's like everyone knows how tough it is to live here but are always willing to help. Since they may receive help someday as well! Alaska misses you Denise!
Stunning scenery, I can smell and feel the crisp freshness of the air. Nature at its best. Majestic. The cabin is looking really good…breathing new life into it …it will stand when all of us have gone. I just read, that lived right , life can be our art. I’m loving what you are doing.
The scenery and beauty of Alaska is mid boggling sometimes! Just nothing but real nature all around me! Air so crisp and clean, its unlike any other air! I am definitely giving this old cabin a second life! She will be here for generations now! Love the saying! I guess my life is my art! Love it! Thank you so much!
The new roof seems to be comming along just fine. That was some beautiful scenery from the plane. I know it was even more spectacular in person. As far as the basement I say fix up a small room in one corner and let Dewey stay there let him pay his rent with small chores like removing the old insulation. Getting firewood for the house hauling water washing dishes you know stuff like that just don't trust him with interior design. He not so good at that. I'll bet he would jump at the opportunity anything has to be better then living with a Sasquatch.
LMAO! Yeah I think Dewey has left for good! (MAYBE! :-) I have such a huge area to work with it's kind of confusing! I know I will store canned goods and water. Maybe have a fish and meat processing area. General storage. No room for Dewey though! LOL :-) He and I have a different idea of "quality" I think! Thank you so much!
Wow, a major over haul - of a job, alright. Fantastic that you were able to find a skilled, experienced and reliable crew to do the job - the r-i-g-h-t way! So Awesome to watch. Thank God for these incredibly talented and skilled men - . I am amazed watching them work. And I am happy for you, to get it fixed correctly and have a sanitary, secure structure - once completed and ready for you to get it all set up the way you've wanted, needed. What a huge difference it will make for you. I've been there - where you are located and been from one end to the other- in Alaska. My daughter attended her university studies there. I visited every year each time I went to visit her those near six years - staying 2 months each time except for once I stayed for 3 months. It is a whole other lifestyle there, very laid back, slower paced - peaceful, beautiful and yes can be quite the change and in a good way. Perception and being sufficiently prepared is paramount. Been right there in Kenai - too and I absolutely loved and adored it. If being alone in complete solitude in God's breath taking creation of nature doesn't bring a person in touch with themselves- nothing will. Because it will certainly do that, it's very tranquil and peaceful, spiritual - makes one appreciate life - all around you, for sure. Spiritually awakening. The whales, the mountains, the goats on the mountain side cliffs, the wolves, bears, and that deep dark green ocean - the beautiful white and crystal light blue glaciers - all of it - is just mesmerizing - makes one feel in aw - so breath taking and same time surreal and even dangerous. Thank you for sharing. Best wishes on your home renovations!
WOW Charlotte I don't think I can add to that at all! Very well said! It's awesome you got to experience Alaska though! It's on so many people's bucket list and for good reason! I could not even imagine living any place else. Like you said, life slows down and the sheer beauty of mother nature is certainly mesmerizing here! And yes it is dangerous too but worth it! I can hardly believe I am finally here after dreaming about it for so many years! And to be this remote and still find a skilled carpenter! I mean what are the chances!? Their hard work will allow me to continue living the life I have always dreamed of! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 🧡🧡
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska - My pleasure, looking forward to watching all your videos- Happy days!Best wishes.
@@charlottecannon314 Thank you so much Charlotte!
Just got back from my Alaska trip, it was a great adventure but a sad one too as my Mom passed just a few days before leaving . Glad to see that there is progresss being made on your cabin as Alaska summers can be short and winter waits for no one. Thanks for the scenic tour of the rugged, beautiful and mostly untouched Alaska!
Ahhhh Chip! I am so very sorry. That must have made the "vacation" very difficult! The flight over the Wrangell mountains was dedicated to your mom as well. 🧡
Hi Alone, I have got to say, you knocked this one out of the park. This is by far your best video. I enjoyed the trip to McCarthy. It's been many years since I viited there and hunted there. I used to go there for sheep hunting, I was younger then and no way could I climb the shale cliffs at this age, lol. The mountains was absolutely beautiful. Thanks for taking us along.
John you really have been all over Alaska haven’t you! LOL! I could do a video on some hill somewhere and you would be like “That area has some great trapping!” LOL I think its amazing you have toured this awesome state like no other! I can tell you that I am scared to death of flying….. in a 737! So you can imagine how I felt about this flight! For being my first flight is such a small plane, I had a blast! What a way to see Alaska! So glad you enjoyed it John! We need you back on CZcams though! Been missing your videos! Please take care of yourself and get back soon! Nothing keeps a real Bushrat down!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska
Thanks Alone, you have to remember, I have 74 years under my belt and most of it living in BUSH Alaska. I have about a week left of taking my medication and then the specialist wants me back to probe me and see if the Ulcer is better or not. I will try to put something out soon. I love small planes much better than the big commercial ones.
@@johninalaska9563 Hey John! It was good to see you on video again! So glad you are doing better! We all missed you! And yes! Small planes fly lower so you can see so much more! You feel the turbulence though! I enjoyed it!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Remember, the smaller the plane, the shorter the fall, lol.
@@johninalaska9563 LOL! Thanks John! I will keep that in mind next time!
Your cabin is going to be beautiful when they get through. I know you will be glad. The flight was breath taking. Just beautiful.
And we just started! Roof was mandatory just to survive the next winter! Next? Balcony, out door kitchen, large garden ohhh the list goes on and on! I will certainly be glad when its all done though! Plenty of content though for many years! LOL! :-) Thank you so much Leilani! 🧡
I absolutely love how you are redoing the roof pitch to your Artic room.
That pitch was always in the plans but I guess I never realized how much bigger it just made my "already big cabin" look! Once the balcony gets added, my cabin is going to look like a lodge! More to come this Thursday Eric! Thank you so much
The design that you have on your cabin, is close to the design I want to build
@@ericschwepker2906 My cabin really is oversized for one person. I know a family of 4-5 used to live here but I also think the original builder was living here just by himself. But they always say build bigger than you think! :-)
Thank you for this vedio. I had to watch it 3 times now. In being somewhat bed riddin for about 3 weeks, this really helps the emotional healing. I have a lot more to saybut I will keep it short. best of luck in your adventures.
Thank you so much and its SO awesome to hear the video helps! Please always feel free to say everything you wish! I have been bed ridden before so I know what you are going through (maybe)
Hello, I too loved seeing your new video come up this morning. Your roof is looking great. Next winter will be much more comfortable. I enjoy the fact that although you chose a more secluded lifestyle you obviously like the times you spend with others too. I'm looking forward to seeing what and how you store things in your root cellar. Until next time!!!!
Thank you so much Lou! It's good to be back! I will just be happy not to hear the creaking and popping my old roof used to make at night! YIKES! I absolutely love my seclusion and solitude and it makes gatherings more interesting! Many more root cellar videos to come! Thank you!
Roof is looking good! Glad you got to have some fun time with friends. This time of year it can be sun up to sun down gettin ur dome so we can enjoy winter 😁
I do not miss those days of mouse poop and mold demo. Been there way to many times
You must be getting some rain out there. Here it's like a match box. Pretty scary
It sure was nice to see my coworker again. She had a great time. But we both still had to work M-F so we didn’t get to do as much sight seeing as she wanted. It was nice to see my contractor and his crew having a nice break too. The kids all had a great time as well and they were all playing and didn’t have their heads buried in a phone or tablet! We have been getting more than our fair share of rain here though. Must have rained for the last 30 days?! And yeah just one mouse poop demo is enough for me! LOL! :-) Thank you Gnomie!
Glad you and Kenai are both doing good. I watched this a couple of days ago but I think I didn’t commented. So here’s the comment😂 and a 👍. Place is coming together.
Well thank you so much Brian! LOL! It's always nice to get a comment from you!
Hello from Florida. So glad to see another video. I enjoy watching your journey in Alaska. Can't wait to see what the cabin will look like when it's all done.
Hello Sherry! I apologize for the late response! I will have a new video out tomorrow! I am so happy you are enjoying my videos! I love to hear that! Construction has about 2 more weeks to go for this round. I estimate two more rounds/years and I can hopefully have everything built! That roof was most important though! Wait until you see how the cabin looks tomorrow! It's amazing! Like a new cabin! Thank you so much Sherry!
Watching you from England UK.
Thank you so much Lesley! It's always good to hear from viewers from across the pond!
Absolutely stunning scenery! Wow....
Also enjoying the cabin reno!
Thank you so much Alise! So glad you enjoyed the video!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska next summer I'm planning a month and a half drive along the Alcan from MT to Fairbanks and back. Can't wait to see the stunning beauty up there in Alaska!
@@aliseoliver3537 WOW! That sounds awesome! I really wanted to take the Alcan but Covid kind of ruined that. That drive is supposed to be gorgeous! Be careful though! Once you see Alaska, you wont want to leave! LOL :-)
The mountains are stunning!! I'm so excited to follow along while you do your renovations. Take good care x
Thank you so much Lynne! That plane ride was absolutely breathtaking! More renovation videos will be coming up! Still so much to do!
Amazing 👏 video. I especially like the sight seeing 👀 flight. The cabin is looking good.
I about spit my coffee out my mouth with the rodant feces in the insulation LOL.
Looking forward to more videos. 😀
LMAO! Yeah that was even more mouse poop than I even thought there would be! And it just kept going. Every piece he pulled down was the same! And this is why I refused to store anything down there! I did manage to eradicate the mice but there are always more coming. Have to find all the holes and block them up! THEN I can use the root cellar finally! Next video you should be safe to drink coffee at any time! LOL! :-) Thank you so much Deborah!
Love the roofline!
It sure makes my already huge cabin look so much bigger doesn't it! It was a surprise to me but I like it too! Thank you so much Pamela!
I knew you were worth the wait. Cheers my friend. Wonderful. 👋🏻
So glad you liked the video Ken! Thank you for always being here!
And here I thought you were in my back door. I'm guessing now you are, plus a 130 miles or so. LOL love the scenery over Wrangle. Gives a good feel for how remote some places in Alaska really are.
I mean technically 130 miles (in Alaska) is kind of still right at your back door! LOL :-) I love the Wrangell mountains! And the views from the plane were incredible. Just so much of Alaska that has never had a human foot on it yet! Thank you so much!
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska I thought you were in the Chicaloon area. Lol. You are in one of the prettier areas of Alaska. That is one area I haven't visited yet., or explored.
@@Washkeeton Ah! I live in the Copper River Basin area. Although I did look a place in Chicaloon! Actually many places in the Matsu Valley. :-)
I am so glad that you are making friends and having some people around it really is healthy I know the alone thing is tempting and I do it here too. But I’m grateful that town is only 30 minutes away and when I go there I run into everybody and I talk for a bit and it’s just enough before running back to the solo life. And there are some people in the woods out here of course my neighbors around me but it’s pretty isolated. You don’t want to be too isolated I don’t know that it’s great but a little isolation is OK.
After spending all my life in the city, I love the isolation! I honestly do not mind the contractor and his crew as they are all so polite and professional. Besides the one time at the Glennallen post office, everyone here is just so darn polite! Strangers helping strangers around here because we are all in the same spot and never know when the favor will be returned. I can say that I can't wait to get out of Anchorage or Fairbanks because of the traffic! 🤣 Thank you so much Violet! 🧡🤗💚
Love watching your videos. Your cabin is looking good. The scenery is breathtaking. Absolutely beautiful. My best friend lives in Anchorage. She was born in Alaska and moved back there several years back. It’s nice to see you ladies enjoying one of the most beautiful places on earth. Take care and thanks for the wonderful and entertaining videos.❤️
The cabin has definitely come a long way! Isn't the scenery here amazing! I am almost here for a full year (in September) and I still am in awe! I hope you get to visit your best friend in Alaska sometime! You have to see this place in person! Thank you so much for joining my journey here and I will be joining yours as well! I will see you in your comment section! 🧡
@@AloneinRemoteAlaska it is amazing! Thank you.❤️🤗
I enjoy flying.
I usually don't. But I totally forgot about that when I saw all the scenery! Absolutely amazing!
beautiful pictures, love to watch you ,glad you're fine sheri g.
Hello Sheri! Thank you so much! I am very glad you enjoyed the video!
You're very close to the Kennecott Mine there it's awesome to see see the places that I've been there before it is awesome have a great day great months
Yeah we originally wanted to go all the way to Kennicott mine but opted to take a plane ride in McCarthy instead. I will make it back to see Kennicott some day though! Thank you so much Travis!
