- After our long road trip to Oregon and back we felt the weather was right to make the big move to our new home. With plenty of work to be done at the new property, we jump right in and get started removing snow around the yard and unpacking.
We appreciate you tagging along for our Alaskan adventure 😀
Thank you for watching and supporting our channel! 💙

Wow, Eric and Arielle! Moving on the heels of that trip to get the Branson! You both are phenomenal! I am amazed continually by what you both accomplish in a day! I'm looking forward to seeing what this property helps you achieve! The coal furnace/stove is a beauty! Peppercorn, the chickens and bees will surely enjoy their new home! The boys will definitely appreciate the settling in, I'm sure. Congratulations on your new property! Your videography skills and editing are a talent in itself! Thank you for taking us all along!
The amount of work you guys do is mind blowing.. it's never ending but you are always up for the task.. incredible!
They don't have kids
@@rainbelledrops1858 and they make a killing on RUclips. This is their jobs
If you are referring to the “boys”, means the 2 🐕 🐕!
When you have an abundance of funds you would be surprised what you can do!
A word to the wise on the backhoe. If you are not using the hoe, pin it with both of the pins. Less likely to damage the hoe or other property. Likewise, trying to hydraulicly moving the hoe without removing the pins will likely damage the pins.
I know that buying my Branson was one of the best things I have done for myself and those friends that I have been able to help with it. Just today my neighbor again thanked me for moving six yards of gravel for him last fall.
Be cautious about getting water or ice into the loader control lever assembly. It can break if you try to force it when frozen. Damage to the rubber boot allows moisture to enter the assembly. Packing the parts inside of the boot with grease helps to protect against ice accumulation.
Enjoy your new toy.
Thank you!
I would add to that, when it’s this cold out engines and hydraulics like to warm up a few minutes. Maybe you did and edited that out, but setting the throttle on a fast idle, maybe 1000 rpm for 5 minutes will add many hours of life to a diesel (& even gas) engine. I realize you were also racing daylight, I always am too!
Was about to suggest the same thing.
Looking good so far guys! Lots of work to do , you both will eventually get it done! So glad you’re keeping the chickens and the bees! Can’t wait to see the cat again also! Enjoy, love you both!❤
Just wanted to give you a safety tip. I grew up around tractors on the farm, never crank a tractor standing on ground! Many accident has happened that way. Just a tip from an old folk 😉
I’m a little sad you have left the old property 🥲 but looking forward to all the new adventures. Hope Beau and Bandit enjoy their new home. Happy Easter!
All the time I've been watching you guys, I've never heard you tear each other down. That's truly unique. ❤❤
I'm sure they have a wonderful relationship but you only get to see 30 minutes of their day. It's a video so you can add and take away whatever you like.
With the amount of snow you get up there, it may be a good idea to invest in some snow chains for the tractor. It'll certainly make a difference when pushing the plow. Looking forward to see what you have in store for this new property.
I think the fluid filled tires Eric mentioned are how a lot of people handle lifting and pushing increases.
@@duanechadwick331think about sub freezing temps.
I agree that chains would be great.
Yay for the chickens! I’m glad you found a way. Good luck!
I love watching their chickens...they're beautiful.
Gotta admit I’ll be sad not seeing the old property. However, I’m SO excited for the new chapter! Watching Arielle start organizing the jars makes me happy! Lastly.. y’all be sure to take a rest soon, ok?💕
I am 82 years old. When I see the drive and energy you display in getting objectives accomplished, I just watch in utter amazement ho you appear to go seemingly non-stop. I know you stop to eat, to drink a coffee, but you do that standing. But at least you get the areas clean of snow to be able to move around and be able to store things at the right place, no use moving things twice! Congratulations on what you achieve, including getting the tractor. On the way doing that you almost drove past the house where I live, right in Chilliwalk, BC. I very much enjoy your videos, and thank you for sharing your experiences!
So exciting to move to your new home and hitting 700K this summer ! I hope the animals adjust in time and you two take such good care of them they will calm down.
Congratulations on a safe trip back home to Alaska and your new property
Thanks Eric & Arielle! Love tagging along on your new challenge. It's another phase in life to be exited about, scary or not. We are approaching another phase too 😉 it's so exciting, invigorating, and look forward to what each day will challenge us with. Thanks again for sharing...LOVE YOU GUYS 🥰
( from SW Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦 )
I couldn't have said it better myself! I, too, am coming up to a new phase this year, moving 1600 km across the country
Hi, where in SW Ontario? Happy Easter from Oakville.
So glad you have everything on this one channel... So many divide their vids into different channels but yours is so interesting with a bit of everything ❤❤
It is always so nice to see how you deal with setbacks. Unless there is more off camera your "well that just happened let's deal with it" attitude is such a blessing to watch. Thank you.
Your backhoe attachment should have a locking pin which will keep the boom from swinging left or right during normal tractor use. The boom and bucket should be in the fully retracted (up) position when not in use. You should've also gotten 3 point attachment hardware for using 3 point attachments. Removing the backhoe takes practice. I keep my backhoe stored in my barn on concrete with plywood under the bucket.
As a Swede Who lives in a country that is 2/3 arctic
so i like the video. It's like being at home.
North part of Sweden and Norway (Scandinavia) has winter
9 months a year. The snow depth is in some places 3 meters (9ft 10).
The temperature can drop to -45° C (-49° F).
Wonderful to see people who live like we do.
Thanks for the upload.
Woke up here in the UK and it's Easter Sunday morning and saw this Easter video gift from you. Thank you Ariel and Eric, better than any chocolate egg! A new Alaskan beginning for you both and not forgetting Bo and Bandit.
Yay! You're in your new cabin! Love your love for each other , your teamwork and can do attitude, and your love of adventure. Bring them chickens home😊
Looking forward to seeing the layout of your land without all the snow. It’s been raining and cold for two days here in the South. I’m sure my cold would be your heatwave 🤣. Hope y’all have a wonderful Easter weekend! Take care and God bless! 😀❤️
Oh I know you guys have a ton of work to do getting your new place like you want it… but I’m excited for you.. how cool is that having moose in your yard 👍🏻 I know your going to be glad that you kept your chickens too.. happy, happy ,happy for your guys
Probably the first YT’ers with a “Watch Moose” , protect them from bad things….slumming for free food (I’m trolling as I have know idea if Moose are that way at all)
Happy Easter!! what kind of shop are you going to have
I’m constantly amazed at the knowledge you both have! Eric with his ability to put together a heater, troubleshoot a generator and change break pads on the fly…Arielle whipping up homemade noodles and breads. The veggies you grow are flawless. Don’t forget to retrieve that beautiful soil when the snow is gone.
I never commented before but wanted to mention two things: First, congrats on moving in - you both must be so excited; and lastly so cool to hear you purchased from DS Stoves, Gordonville, PA - the area that I was born and raised. I hope the DS Energy Max 160 serves you well in the shop, Eric. Please update us on its performance later. :)
Thank you so much!! We will keep you posted ;)
So happy and excited for you as you begin this next chapter. Best wishes and enjoy the ride!
Wow, wow, wow. I’ve said it before, there’s nothing you two can’t do together, and with grace!
Eric looks so happy with his new toy, it is a beast!
,
I’m happy to hear the chickens will live on too..Happy new home! Can’t wait for the next chapter video 😊
Really happy for your new place. The thing I notice immediate is space, space, and more space. What a great beginning for a homestead. That snow plow blade did a remarkable job of clearing & piling the snow too.
Glad the chickens and Pepper are in the next load. Beautiful new home! Your videos are always inspiring and entertaining.
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH!!!🎉🎉🎉 Moving is DEFINITELY hard work!!!😅😅😅 I'm glad y'all have made your move Safe and Sound!!!🙌🙌🙌 I can't wait to see all of the things that are coming!!!💯💯💯 Much Love and Prayers from FL 💖💞🌴🙏💖💞🌴🙏💖💞🌴🙏
Wow didn't expect your move so fast, but how nice just in time for maybe Spring?😊. The tractor was a good buy and makes work so much easier especially with more acreage. Can't wait for the new adventures on your new home. Once again congratulations on your new home. Be Blessed. 😊🇺🇲
Everything is coming together! In the spring when you all are ready to move the shelter logic, you could screw either spruce poles or lumber to the legs of the shelter logic and drag the shelter logic into place on the wood as skids. We attached 4x4 pressure treated skids to our shelter logic it helps keep it more ridged as well.
Is your wood/coal furnace something that can heat the slab of your shop/ like radiant tubing? If so, here’s an idea… attach a greenhouse to the end of your gable shop wall and run some radiant tubes in a different thermostat zone out into your greenhouse beds, this would extend your growing season. I would first dig out an area and line the area with rigid foam on the ground and up the sides of the perimeter of your greenhouse then fill with soil, and tubes.
Man I would have needed like a month to recover from that trip to get the tractor and here you guys are just going full steam ahead with your move!
I’m loving watching the process! I’m sorry you have to wait for the snow to melt to get your shelter thing back in place.
A rear mount snowblower would be nice on that new tractor
Awesomeness You all made it back to Alaska, with Tractor in tow… that’s a lot of miles.. and challenging to the body and the vehicle…
Your problem solving skills never ceases to amaze me, as well as the research you do when acquiring a new piece of equipment. I love how people in the know give you advise. What a great online community you have.
You should see the glorious toe fuzz my Goldens grow!
It’s wonderful!
I love their Grinchy Toes!
Congrats on the move to your new home. Cant wait to hear the plans, especially for a new garden. So excited to see what you will be building, loved watching the old place start as a bare patch that you grew into an awesome place with all the building work you both did. Gonna be a ton of hard work but I am certain you will make it work. Very happy for you both. Hope Beau settles soon, bless him. Stay safe xx
You know ya love this channel when you are watching another video n see yal and click on over 😂❤❤❤
I love the chemistry & teamwork you 2 have determination of living your dreams can't wait to see the chicken move have a great week👍
You guys are so inspiring. Thank you for sharing this bit of your lives with strangers around the world.
We love love love your episodes and look forward to them weekly, especially the longer shows 😊 we really appreciate you two!
Oh, how exciting! I wasn't expecting a "moving" video. I am re-living my younger days when I watch you. The memories my husband and I made are wonderful. You will always cherish your memories as well. Thank you so very much for sharing your life with us. We love every video. Can't wait for your next one. God bless you both!
I will make this short, you two are amazing ! I lived in Alaska for a long while and do wish I was back there. I really enjoy your videos.
Recently discovered your videos, love them, keep them coming, really enjoy a mug of coffee in the morning and you of your great videos.
You are living the dream!
Wishing you all the best in your new home. Can’t wait to see all the great things you will do to it.
Love the new tractor! They're expensive but so worth it! Also the animals will adjust to the new place soon! So happy for y'all!!!
You two definitely don't play around. I didn't think that you would move in so soon. Congratulations on the move and I hope that all goes well for you at the new location.
Yep knowing when to take the fight and other day (tent) is very clever. Enjoy Happy Easter
It's incredible how you two are able to make the drudgery of moving look fun! I really enjoy keeping up with your video's.
Won’t it be nice when you get the last of your things up to the new place? 🤗 I know there is an urgency to ‘get it done’, so I am praying for strength, health & good wisdom in all the decisions you’ll be making ahead. Best wishes for the future, love following your adventures & just your ‘everyday life’! You both amaze me!💪
Best couple on RUclips. I love how real you both are. Hard working and amazing people. I am excited to see how the new homestead comes together and changes; especially with all that you learned from your first Alaska home.
How exciting. You two remind me of a younger version of us. We have always worked together, you have too, living this life style. This is the perfect time to move your bees too…..you are bringing them too, right? I can’t wait to see the next video. Congrats you two. 🇨🇦🌷🐝
Congratulations on the big move! Do y’all know the neighbor situation? Do you have any? How close is their main structure? Do the have kids? Etc…I’m feeling nostalgic for the original homestead already. You both put in so much backbreaking work just to start over again. A work shop is a must on an off grid property and now you finally have one! The tractor is perfect for the size of your property. Be well and stay safe, Doc✌🏼
I’m I love your videos. I always have! I am completely convinced that you must write a book about your lives moving to Alaska! Sure you are busy, aren’t we all! I think your focus of this book has two points, first the bravery you possess to move to Alaska AND how you covered the cost to do so! How could you be so brave, so adventurous and so confident to move forward as you did! Just as Dick Prennicke did videos of his life in Alaska in 1968, you could be the new pioneers!
How did you summon the courage to move to Alaska?
How did you find a place or location that you wanted to live?
How did you buy your first home site?
What adaptions did you make?
What challenges did you face?
How did you improve your homesite?
Tell us about your solar choices! We’re you happy with your purchases? What would you do differently?
What challenges did you face growing food?
How devastating was the root cellar?
Paint the picture of your struggles for fresh water, outhouse, and income to pay your expenses!
You love the outdoors, bring us along to experience your highs and lows, explain what you’re thinking as you work through your problems and your celebrations!
Everyone loves the dogs, explain your thoughts and the well being of them and how that may limit your trips but they enrich your lives! The cat is fun but all cats are so independent!
I really want to know more about your decision to buy the other property when you already had two properties! How much is enough? Why
You clearly show your flair for cooking delicious foods, teach us more! How did you learn to cook? How did you learn to can? How did you develop your style? How did you learn to draw the audience in as you do?
You two poses magic in your hands and words, you have such an easy way of describing your experiences and I’ll be that each and every subscriber would be delighted to buy your first 1,000 copies and then the rest of the world would discover you and beat a path to your door to buy your book!
You two are clearly so much different from all of the other liar liar pants on fire! I just adore you and ask that you seriously consider writing a book of your experiences!
God bless you all! Happy Easter
I would definitely buy their book!! ❤
you need to look at getting a set of chains for the front wheels on that tractor; it will make a big difference in how much snow you can push with a set of chains on the front wheels
🎉🎉🎉 CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎉🎉 ON REACHING 700,000 SUBSCRIBERS TO YOUR AWESOME CHANNEL @SIMPLE LIVING ALASKA ERIC + ARIELLE, BO & BANDIT, KITTY AND THE HENS🐾🐕🐶🐅🐆🐈🐱🐔🐣🐥
You guys are amazing. Hard work and adventure are in your blood. Great new tractor
You always look like you're having so much fun with life! I'm happy you have a new, larger home. I am also always struck (impressed) by the amount of vehicles, machinery, equipment (large and small) needed for an off-grid life in Alaska. We have a vacation home isolated in the forest on a large lake in northern Minnesota which has been in the family for 100 years and has always seemed remote. Maybe it was when I was a kid in the 50s, but now a plowed road is closer, we were connected to on-grid electricity 30 years ago (still frequent blackouts with every storm but usually fixed within 24 hours), our water and plumbing is reliable, and 50% of the time we have mobile phone connection, so it is not anything like your situation.
Wow, so much snow!! It’s amazing how you both work in the snow. Was it hard to adjust to the cold and snow? I love your new property. There is so much space and places to put things. You need a place for your snowmobile, tractor, trucks and boat to be out of the terrible cold snow and rain. I can’t wait to see the garden you all have planned. You two work good together without any problems and I admire you all for that. The tractor will help with a lot of the lifting and moving things. Way to go you two. One of my favorite couples to watch. Keep the videos coming and I’ll be watching. Love you guys. Be safe, keep warm and enjoy what life has to offer you. Bye for now from Alabama.
What a beautiful cabin , love the stillness and how quiet it is . Pure heaven .
Congrats on the move ...wishing you beautiful memories in the new place!!
Wow, Congratulations on moving into your new place! That tractor is way cool. Hoping both the pups and all your other animals will grow to love the new, much bigger space. Blessings and Happy Easter 🐾🐾🙏💜🌎☮️🌎💜🙏🐾🐾
Nice move. I look forward to this video all week
Wow, when you said spring move, I thought after the thaw, nope, gotta love that Branson, it`s worth it`s weight in gold, just moving that much snow. Winter sure hangs on long in Alaska, I am in lower Michigan, and we haven`t had snow on the ground for a month or so, our trees are budding and the grass is starting to grow. I can`t wait to see all the new plans for your new property. Ariel, we wern`t gonna bring the chickens, we were gonna eat them, too funny, you guys are killing it, as usuall, all the best with the move, you guys have a lot of stuff, hope the weather breaks for ya.
What a beautiful Moose!
She looked like she was just about ready to drop calf
Happy Easter. Can't wait to watch later tonight
Great video Guys. The tractor will be such an asset. Moving the homestead projects full steam ahead. Enjoy the new location.
How wonderful that you've got a brand new adventure here - all the very best for you both in your new home, guys! :)
Glad to see y’all making progress even with all that snow! Exciting time!
Snow clearing with your tractor is going to be a blast now after all your years of using a snow blower and shovel lol
That tractor will be a game changer. Although you will need a 3pt snow blower and a block heater!
Eric's smile when he is on the tracker. He can say tracker and smiles. Nice!
WOW, Eric & Arielle, your energy levels are amazing! Yet again, you make what most of us would think of as a daunting and overwhelming challenge simply and exciting adventure. You both seem to have mastered your tractor in no time flat! Kudos for all your hard work and Congratulations for setting your course and following through with your move. Can’t wait for your next video! Happy Easter! Maybe it’s an Easter Moose who was setting up your Egg hunt!!!
Yay!! It's so great to you at your new place. It'll be better once the chickens and kitty are there!! 💗
The beauty of cabinets is less visual mess, but you need a specific place things go, or you spend more time searching.
First off - Welcome to your new home! It looks like a resort. How beautiful. I love the Branson, you guys could be the spokespeople for these companies. I'm already sold on the Polaris and your generator and I live in suburbs (hahah). You guys are so amazing and so chill about all the day to day things you do, not to mention all the things that you're doing for a move. So excited to see you all settle into the new place.
Good to see you putting your new red tractor to good use straight away, looks like it's going to be a great asset there at the new cabin. Thank's guys for the video update.
Woot, woot!! Moving day. Cannot believe there is still so much snow.
wow that tractor is so nice for all that snow youve got,it should really come in handy for ur new place.
...Tom Ernst from Melbourne FL... you folks are awesome... thanks for gettin' me out of the apartment...😀...
Looking for something to watch and you guys drop a new episode! 😎👍
Hello from the U.P. Michigan. 👋
Just got another foot of snow a week ago. Pretty sure you are warmer than we are.
Have 2 gallons of maple syrup finished so far for the season so that's, that. 😆
The adventurous twosome !!!! I am looking forward to this new adventure of yours,, how everything works out ‼️‼️ honestly the snow,, freezing temperatures,, envying you ,, where I stay the heat is going up temps is hitting 35 degrees Celsius. Keep posting ,, and have fun ‼️
I especially love all the building and land development videos you created at the old place so I’m really excited to see what you do here.
Much excitement! The pups will adjust. Having familiar items around and their smells will help. Very happy to see you are bringing the chickens. I know it will be more work initially, but worth it long-term. Have you guys made a decision on the bees yet?? Thanks for another lovely video!❤
I'm pretty pumped to see where this new chapter will lead you guys!
Very exciting time for you two, Thanks for letting us tag along.
It’s got to be so amazing to wake up and see such beautiful wildlife roaming around on your property. Tractor is awesome
Happy Saturday guys! Im always look forward to your videos. It's got me asking the hubby to move to Alaska 😂😂
Initially concerned about your move up here into the Interior, however you are certainly well equiped. What an exciting summer ahead. I hope you quickly make local connections to share in doing projects. With this late winter it will take awhile for the ground to unthaw. Nice you are able to mill your wood, but if you ever need some nice larger rough cut wood for heavy duty framing we REALLY like Northland Wood off Cushman Road in Fairbanks.
Utmost respect for the two of you. Can't wait to watch you guys every week. Love Love Love it!
I love your new cabin, it has more character than the other one, especially with the deck.. very nice. I can't wait when you start planting again
Haven’t even watched it yet but I already know this episode is 🔥 as always.
Good morning to both of you and it’s Easter Day here in the Philippines ❤❤❤
Totally amazing that you are moving! That amount of snow is daunting! Not sure how you do it! Just mowed my grass today for first time in ‘23! Going to be in upper 70’s in a few days. Lots of spring flowers in full bloom! Take care and don’t overdo! Hugs! ❤
You guys are awasome
I am so happy for you both! ❤❤❤❤
Congratulations on the move! 🎉 Our two dog's grow that extra fur to, here in Northern Michigan we call it "Grinch paw's" 😅😁
Dog paws: does that fur shed as the weather gets warmer?? My Australian shepherd grows it too, but I always have it trimmed when he goes in for grooming!! Should I just leave it??? 😬
You two have a work ethic that is off the chain…. Glad that your chickens will be making the move, too. A replenishing supply of eggs is always a good thing, as is instant access to a fresh chicken dinner! I like your new place, but am looking forward to seeing it all when the snow melts. It is hard to visualize right now. I will miss ya’ll’s garden this year, though. I hope, when you do break ground, that it will be as fertile and productive as your garden in your old place..
Congratulations on your successful move. One flat tire is an easy fix considering all you have to move to this awesome new place. So happy for you both and the new tractor purchase as well. Once again proving Working smarter not Harder is so true. I'm so happy your chickens are not going to freezer camp yet. lol
For all the work of moving it remains exciting for all of us too! All the best and thanks for the ride...
Eric is so proud of his new tractor. But I am proud of you Arielle for driving it too.
You guys are amazing with the amount of work you get done! The new tractor is really something and much needed for you. Your new cabin is really nice. Moving is exciting and a lot of work, but gratifying to see it take shape.
So happy for you! Looks great! Nice piece of equipment! Thanks for taking us along! As usual...I enjoy your life up there!
Congratulations on your move! You guys are amazing and such hard workers! ❤️🐾🐾🐾
