1st time here. Love your films. Watching you all the way from Scotland. My son would have loved to live this way. He was a a keen fisherman. Sadly he lost his life at the age of 22. That was a year and a half ago. Ill keep watching in his memory. Rest in peace my boy Craig. ❤
Hey man I just wanted to say that you, and Dick Proenneke of course, have been a big inspiration to me. I’ve always dreamed of building my own cabin in Alaska but never thought I would actually be able to bring it to fruition. That is until you shared your journey with all of us showing that it’s possible. Now I’m 30 years old and I just moved up here from Utah earlier this year and purchased 5 acres in Willow. I will begin building a 16x24 cabin this summer. Thanks for the inspiration. I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and thoroughly enjoy them. Keep up the good work. Maybe one day we’ll cross paths. Cheers mate.
@@alaskacabinadventuresThanks man! Yessir, I’m right off willow-fishhook. Wish I could pull something off a little more out there like you but I’ve got a commute 👎 I’m still very happy with the location though!
Just want to say this video is just what I needed today. Been working crazy hours at a stressful job while helping care for my dad after my mom passed away from cancer earlier this year. It’s been an extremely exhausting last couple of months and just constantly feeling on edge but honestly have to say this video has a very serene calming affect. Most relaxed I’ve felt in weeks.
This video was one of your best! Watching how your family (you, your wife, Norman, and now your daughter) have learned to create a Family! Congratulations and keep believing. Dad
A lovely way to spend 1 1/2 hours, great to see you clean the glass in your stove so few people do, half the magic of a stove is to be able to see the flames.
Omg!!!! You sound like me! I read this and said “did I already comment on this video?” Holy cow, and they were my exact words to another video by a young couple. Well, honestly, I was this in no one else, but I’m so glad I’m not alone with my regrets if…… not living life while I was young enough to. I’m believing God will turn it around while we are still here but, we always have eternity with Him
Truer words have never been spoken. Hard but peaceful living and the path I wish I had taken at one point. I grew up in the rural foothills of the Sierra Nevada’s in California and dreamed about doing something like this but just never happened.
Hello 2025. I like watching videos with snow. It's beautiful. Even though I don't know the language, I like to watch it. I'm rooting for you. I'm from Thailand.
I think that people that don't live in an extremely snowy area, would find it hard to imagine how difficult the work is. Just to maintain a normal life, you have to work so much. Kudos to you for making it look fairly easy, and keeping up with your homestead, home and dog. As someone that used to live in eastern Washington state, I personally am quite impressed!
I watch your videos from France and here it is very complicated to live isolated in the forest.... but I am saving to buy land to plant trees and build a cabin, you are a source of inspiration for me, happy new year ❤
Crazy that you know Timmy from truck house living, i have been watching his channel for a while now. You do a great job like he does building your cabins. Very interesting and great videos you’re putting out
Wonderful to go down memory lane again & once again see how you expanded your beautiful property. A lot of hard work but I'm sure so worth it. Thoroughly enjoy your Alaskan videos & hopefully we will see many more.
It's 11 pm right now in Southern New Jersey. There is about an inch or two of snow on the ground. I'm off to sleep and hopefully dream of snow up to my knees, a dog by my side, a cat waiting in the cabin for a cuddle and the fire I started a bit ago. Your way of living has been my dream ever since I first watched Mr. Proenneke years ago and read his journal. When I found your channel, I was delighted. Thank you for sharing and making my dream come true through you. I hope you continue to let us join you far into the future. Happy New Year to you and your family.
Absolutely Beautiful!! I sure miss the change of seasons now being in San Diego. Your cabin is just wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy Those Snowflakes.
Happy New Year from the Ozarks! Love the brown fur hat! I really enjoy this type of video. Very relaxing plus we get a good idea what day to day life is like in a remote Alaskan cabin. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome Alaskan Cabin Family! love the life over the 3 yr span, culminating with your Christmas then the birth of your daughter! loved the Christmas music you played on the banjo as your outtro, it was awesome!
Really great photography and editing skills here. It's nice when you see someone's put in a lot of effort into the quality of their content. Thanks dude, I really enjoy these films. Now I want to be in a log cabin in the middle of nowhere enjoying the peace and quiet with nothing more than a good fire and a whiskey!
Hi, l am watching from the UK. l love snow and l love your videos. Happy New Year to you and your lovely family. Thamkyou for sharing your life here with us
I first learned about Dick Proenneke about 10 years ago. I then watched and read everything I could find about him. So cool that he gave you inspiration. Happy 2025 to you! Thank-you for all your great vidoes and sharing wife and baby with us too.
Absolutely Beautiful!! I sure miss the change of seasons now being in San Diego. Your cabin is just wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy Those Snowflakes.
Hello Shawn and Mrs. very nice job in getting the trees ready to grow fruit great insight how how the fruit trees should look. Also great idea to have a lot of space in the tree design.
Just have to say I love your digs. Was sent here through watching Timmy Johnson from Truck House Life a while back and I'm glad I finally got to see some full videos. You're living the life and doing some beautiful work. By the way, your dog couldn't be more beautiful. 🥰
Great vid. For all those want a be off gridders, just watch this. It's a lot easier. I grew up off grid so not so much new for me. I also lived in Alaska so big snow is nothing new. 69 below F in Delta Junction. Pretty cold no matter where you are from. It can be tough. It can be deadly tough. You do a great job. Have to bring you some more of that Kentucky home brew out of the charred oak barrels. Make a river of it here. Beautiful main cabin. and guest cabin. You did an excellent job on them. Lot of interesting vids through the year. Watched I think all of them. Hell of a lot of work to live off grid. Never flip the switch without thinking about it. I lived it too. Think nothing of it. Just things you do naturally to get by day to day, season to season. Wonderful ending. Time sure flies. My baby will be 35 in just a few weeks. Enjoy and savor every moment. Great respect. All good from east Kentucky USA. Take care. Next time. Keep picking.
I really loved this video. There a lot of great parts of this video, but the ones that made me subscribe was your interactions with your doggo. These were the best that really made me smile. Can't wait for the next ones. Thank you and I hope you have a great year ahead.
Happy New Year! I was extremely happy to see a new video on my timeline !! Wishing you much happiness, health, prosperity in 2025. Love how you edited this video and the font etc. The landscape is incredibly breathtaking
Really enjoyed this video and how it was put together. I’ve seen some of it but never gets old looking at it. Beautiful country❤ My husband and I are doing a cruise to Alaska and want to do the train ride if we can. Will be the end of September 2025. We truly can’t wait to see some it in person😜❤
I haven't seen you in a while. It's so good to visit with you again. I guess I've been busy on other things lately. I wanted you to know how much I enjoy your content, your own music and the beautiful scenery not to mention your hard work but I know you love it! 🤩
Just stumbled on your videos and I’m hooked! So interesting and inspiring. From a glamma (that’s a glamorous grandma 77 years young) from East Texas. Love your doggie with the little booties. Happy New Year!
Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. I find your videos charming and inspiring. If I were your parents, I would be very proud of you. As a viewer, I admire your efforts to create a meaningful life for yourself and your family, working hard and enjoying the fruits of all your purposeful efforts. It feels like a balanced life. Happy New Year to you and your family!
I hope you know you are living everyone’s dream. The isolation and very very hard work would make most cave, but oh to be able to live in peace like that would be glorious! Very envious!
Everything seems so enchanting, so magical, as if it’s taken straight from a fairytale. It’s absolutely breathtaking! However ,I’m not sure if I could manage being alone in the snow for three years-it would undoubtedly be a huge challenge for me. Even so, your video feels like a dream, truly mesmerizing, with everything looking so incredibly beautiful! 🤩
Awesome video! So much skills and craftsmanship you have poured to build these lovely cabins ! Just Wow!!👏 Btw, do you own that forest? I'm sure you had to cut down so many trees to build up these and for the fire! That's the saddest part! 🥲 I hope the forest will not be deforested ( left bare) in the coming days in the name of the adventure! 🙏
Am from Philippines...a tropical country...snowless place and I can't imagine myself if I live there...I can't resist shoveling that thick snow from top to bottom and the passage way....maybe u are used doing since u born...but even then I enjoy watching Ur video and realized how life is harder living in a snowy country like yours....mabuhay from Philippines!
what a beautiful video!! folks this is such a wonderful way to live Congrats!! on that awesome cabin🏡 it is so very cozy I only wish we had one but we have the Blessing of living in the country by some beautiful woods, incredible beauty to wake up to in the morning so I guess that is as close as I am going to get. congrats! on that new baby so precious!!! A best friend for your dog!! How sweet! Thanks for sharing this nice video with us much APPRECIATED!!! Beautiful scenery!!! WOOHOO!!! Karen from Canada!!👏⛷👨👩👦🐶❄🎄🥇🎿🪕🕯God Bless! your special family!!🧸

How sad for you. Can’t image your grief 😢
I wish you peace in 2025, as a new parent I feel for you very deeply. Better days ahead 🙏

Right on!! That means a lot to hear someone say. I hope it turns out well for you, do you have road access to your land?
Missed you. Love Norman's jacket. Everything looks great!

This video was worth making for this comment alone. Thank you.

This is the best movie I've watched in 200 years...
A lovely way to spend 1 1/2 hours, great to see you clean the glass in your stove so few people do, half the magic of a stove is to be able to see the flames.
It's just right for me, quiet, no people just the dog and I (my dog).
Love it. Wish I was 30 years younger. Many of us got stuck in the rut, and now it's too late. If I ever get to live another life, I'll go for it.
Omg!!!! You sound like me!

I do love a man who loves his dog and keeps a clean house . Your life is my dream lol xxxx
I love your channel bc of how you treat Norman. Thank you for loving him!
Hello 2025. I like watching videos with snow. It's beautiful. Even though I don't know the language, I like to watch it. I'm rooting for you. I'm from Thailand.
VERY impressive to see your dog going DOWN the ladder staircase…

Oh Lordy thank you! New “man &dog out-in-snow” video to get sleepy by! 🤣🤣👍🏻☺️
Одно из лучших видео. Лучше всякого фильма. Посмотрела на одном дыхание. Это просто сказка . Спасибо за такое прекрасное видео.
и кто тут хозяин хочет пилит хочет рубит на своей земле никого не спрашивая
Congratulations on your new addition! Thanks for sharing your story and music!
Watching from the UK what a beautiful healthy place to live 👍
Your videos keep getting better and better (audio, musical ambience, editing, etc)!! thanks so much for sharing with all of us! 🙏

Living the dream!
Love to see something ,,real,, like stoking a wood burning 🔥 stove and shoveling snow and being kind to your doggi 🐕 🛷 ✌️☮️
A lot of good memories in the pad, and they ain't over yet lol
You better believe it buddy, did you watch long enough to catch your cameo?
It's 11 pm right now in Southern New Jersey. There is about an inch or two of snow on the ground.

Thank you for sharing - may come in handy with the snowstorm bearing down on us...
Good point!
Good movie! The adventure was real. In the end the wonder and awe of a homestead was born.
Absolutely Beautiful!! I sure miss the change of seasons now being in San Diego. Your cabin is just wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy Those Snowflakes.
Exactly, Alaska has a way of really making you feel the seasons.
I look forward to each new video so much. So relaxing and peaceful. Thank you for providing such beautiful content.

Much appreciate that. I really do try my hardest with the gear and knowledge I have to make every second of the video as good as possible.
Wow! A fantastic heartwarming video. A quality result.
For some reason I enjoy watching you cook 😊
Thanks!
Wow thank you!
Quelle superbe cabane dans ce merveilleux paysage, vous avez de la chance, bravo pour votre travail ❤️🇲🇫
