  • This is my remote cabin in middle of the Alaska Range. It is completely off grid. This video shows the routine of arriving at, and opening up this cabin during the winter months.

    Cold outside, warm inside, food on the table, fresh water from a stream, no annoying people, best companionship, no talking, what more can anyone ask for? This is the way to live.

    This is my dream. I love cold. I love quiet. I love dogs. I love cabins. I love nature. I would give anything to live some place like this. To hear the sound of the cold wind whistling at night while you sleep. So amazing. I would still need high speed internet to do my job remotely though. LOL

      Good morning Erik. You are speaking my language friend. We get some tremendous winds here at the cabin. At times the whole building shakes. I love laying in bed at night and listing to the storms. It is the most peaceful feeling on earth.

      With Starlink Satellites, you could have the best Internet even in the most remote parts of the earth.
      I would love to live and work remotely from such a remote lovely place, as well.
      I would also love to have a private jet / helicopter, to fly around for fun & to quickly visit the nearest city/town, just in case I start feeling lonely.
      PS: I just noticed that someone has already mentioned about Starlink. Yeah! Starlink's fast Internet would be awesome!

    Just an idea: In Germany some restaurants have a semicircular heavy curtain just inside of the door to keep the cold from entering during the cold winter days. This curtain is hung from the ceiling on a strongly fastoned rack, and works great to keep that chill out. Might work well in your cabin there.

    Reminds me of the life I had up in the Carpathians mountains in an old log cabin where i didn't had not even a fireplace or stove. Had to prepare my food outside using an old barrel in which i used to make fire. Inside the cabin was cold as heck. Showers were with cold water or snow. But guess what? Didn't even had a simple cold, or a tooth ache or anything. I moved back to the city after my training session, found hot water and gas at my reach and i started to have cold, flues, tooth aches, knees problems. I know that living up in the mountains is tough (even a nightmare for some people), but its all so dang beautiful. I miss that time, so next year i'm gonna move to an old friend's farm up in mountains. And i'm gonna take snow showers again :)

I have a dear old native friend here that lives with his wife in a shanty on the bank of the Yukon River, hundreds of miles from the nearest town. He is also very wealthy. Last year I asked him why they didn't move to some tropical beach and this was what he said, "We have traveled all over the world and could live anywhere we wanted to, but there is simply no better place than here on shores of the Yukon River." I love their view of life. The things they valued were not associated with money at all. Peace to you from Alaska.

There are resources I would direct you to in regards to finding and purchasing remote property. This particular property does not have property tax but many other pieces will. There are few rules for construction of a single-family homes built outside of the cities. Building a cabin takes a time commitment and a some money too. There are lots of things that have to be purchased. That said, I think it is a middle-class kind of thing, a dream in reach of many people if they want it bad enough.

      Hello Kathy! Greetings from Alaska. You make me want to hear more of your story. I grew up very much as you described. My father dug a deep hole outside the cabin that went down deep into the permafrost. He built a ladder down into it and put an insulated cover over the top. It had shelves all around at the bottom. That was our freezer during the summer months. He ran a trapline, hunted for our meat, fished for the salmon each summer and grew a garden. It was not an easy life but I loved it dearly. What was it about that kind of a life that was so satisfying to a child? Where do we find that quality of living in the world today?

    It cracks me up a little seeing all the comments about him being warm in the cabin while it is cold outside. What most of the people watching this don't realize, is how long it takes a cabin to warm up inside when it has been at ambient winter temperature for weeks (or longer). Especially a log cabin which has a whole lot of thermal mass. Had a log cabin in McCarthy for 12 years; BTDT. The kerosene heater supplementing the wood stove is going to help, but it probably wasn't too warm in there until the next morning. The oil heater for sure would work better than the little propane heater we had (but then you have smelly kerosene in the living space). My brother and I hiked in one February at maybe -15F or -20F, and that was actually the day it had warmed up, so the cabin had been at 30 or 40 below for weeks. It was too cold for the propane heater to start, since propane won't atomize at those temperatures. We spent a rather unpleasant night keeping the wood stove fed, while it slowly brought the temperature up.

      Good afternoon Debbie. I love those stories. I grew up on the outskirts of Nenana. We hauled our water from the creek, a mile or so away, we heated only with wood, and our only "plumbing" was an outhouse. My dad dug a 10-foot-deep hole down into the permafrost and covered it with an insulated cover. He put a ladder down into it and built shelves down there. That was our freezer during the summer months. I remember when we got our first generator. It was a 4-kW Witte. My mom was so happy. Of course we didn't call it "living off-grid" back then, it was just "living". Over a half century later I am still trying to get back to that simple way of life and I believe I will make it. Thanks for the memories. Peace.

      Whatever you do, stay away from Haines, Alaska. The worst place I've ever lived, by far...and I grew up in south Philly.....in fact, I'd stay away from all of southeast Alaska and start off in the Anchorage area. Especially around Palmer and Wasilla. Alaska is NOTHING like the lower 48. Also, it's full of EXTREMIST Republicans, just FYI. Not the friendliest place I've ever lived, that's for damn sure.
      Lastly, be prepared for NONE of your friends to come see you more than once because travel to Alaska from the lower 48, SUCKS HARD!!!!
      If all you're after is life off the grid like in this video, for the love 9f God start out in the Anchorage area first, spend a few years there and become accustomed to the different world that Alaska is, THEN decide if this is what you want.
      I lived MANY years of my life across all of Alaska and to be perfectly honest, aside from not having the northern lights, you're WAY better off building off grid in one of the mountain states like Montana or Washington. I spent years after my Marine Corps tour was up, in Washington and boy oh boy was that a great place. Great mountains, plenty of off grid opportunities and best of all, always still close enough to hop in the car and go to the ocean or whatever floats your boat and several big airport opportunities for your friends to use when wanting to visit.
      Just my two cents.... good luck and I hope you find what you're looking for.
      Also, just remember, if you think you need to move to find happiness, you're not going to find it. You must be happy first then find a place you love to settle in.

      Good evening Raya. Thank you for watching. Many times I arrive at the cabin (in the winter) at very cold temperatures. The wind is often blowing very hard as well. I have redundant methods of quick fire starting because I have learned how important it is to have a reliable heat source. When I leave, I always make sure the fire-starting essentials are all prepared for my return. Peace.

      I always forget that some people don't grow up in the middle of nowhere with extreme winters that require you learning these things. Sobering reminder that I have a lot more skills than I think I do.

      hey there Ron! Hello from Durango, CO. My Filipino wife ( a science teacher) and I live in the South Western Colorado mountains. She's always cold, haha. We're not off grid, but we enjoy the self sufficient life style of hunting elk, turkey, and deer, spending time cutting our own firewood, and we heat only with the wood stove to cut down on winter electric bills, and operating a saw mill so we can add onto the cabin as we want to. Green house will be complete soon. Got chickens and ducks, & 5 big dogs. haha.
      but the best thing is being away from people and the hustle bustle of city life! (mostly that is, we still have a few crazy neighbors, as one would expect living up in the hills)
