I have never sat through a 59 minute video before. Hell, I have trouble making it through a 5 minute video. I'm 70 years old, and every damn minute counts for me. Bro, you are an artist, philosopher and builder. You made my eyes sweat. Oh ya, you're a pretty damn good film producer as well. I actually screen videos for 2 international film festivals. You should think about making one and submit it to a film festival somewhere in Alaska.

Nice music. great shots

I purchased 5 acres in mid-michigan, starting my cabin as soon as the weather agrees...cannot wait.

I have been in the construction industry for over 40 years and at over 60 love to watch videos like these! I have a half acre homestead in south east Tennessee. I have been in these mountains with my wife of 38 years for over 30 years and tried Floridaaaaaa for four years, and got the heck out and moved back to my beautiful Tennessee mountains. I live in a place named Soddy Daisy on Mulberry mountain! This is truly Gods country with good people and nature surrounding one with peace and tranquility!

I appreciate how honest you were about screwing up the door. It's reassuring to me to hear that other people struggle and make mistakes too. Not only did you learn from your mistake, but we did as well. Thank you!

Awesome video man, nailed it at the end on the last line "Life is about inventing who you want to become"🤙

You did what Dick has always done Inspire to build . . . Be one with nature . . . Never too old to learn new skills It’s one thing to read and watch. It’s another to do

How anyone could build a cabin without the help of a good boy is beyond me. Now I need to build mine. 🐶

First I want to say I saw alone in the wilderness as a kid and Alaska has been my dream for years, and while I haven't made it yet, you're living the dream so rock on. Second, while you gotta do what you gotta do building your cabin, you are a far braver man than I working with power tools like that in the pouring rain. Keep on living your best life man.

I'm 74 years old and do a lot of DIY projects, albeit from sunny San Diego. Your video hooked me immediately. I'm not going to lament not being able to do the things that you do because of my age. But just know that as I watch you build this from scratch I comforted to know that at one time I could. Thanks for sharing these 59 minutes.

As a professional highly qualified joiner of 61yo I think you are doing a great job keep it up , you do need a friend to help you out just to make the tea/coffee and have some banter with to lift your spirits as working alone takes its tole never mind all the camera moving and faff , keep it up I’m loving it 👍 , sadly I live in Liverpool England so no fantastic wilderness to build in around here , all the best John

I never knew Dick Pronnecke. But I am most positive. From all I have read and watched about him. That he would have appreciated and approved of your journey. Thank you for sharing. I loved the music.

I remember when I first discovered Dick Proenneke. Some random person left a comment on a channel, when I viewed their account, the only video they had uploaded was "Alone in the Wilderness". I watched it a few times, bought the DVD set and the book, it changed how I was living my life, I wanted to move to Alaska and do what you're doing, right now. I decided to look up Prenneke's Wiki and learned that he passed away after he came home to live with his brother. I was shocked to see that he died in my home town, when I looked up his brothers address, it was walking distance from where I was living at the time. small World. I enjoy watching your videos and your journey. Keep living that dream!

Got a like as soon as he said the music was original. Self made music and a cabin??? Sold

If you haven’t screwed up, then you have not done very much.

Great build & beautiful Norman... Love that he's your best friend & companion....

Something about the chunks of spruce as stakes gives me a lot of joy. Great work!

Isn't Tyvek the best invention ever! We built a cabin quite similar to yours. We added 4' to the depth for bunkbeds and a closet. Otherwise the same dimensions. After vinyl windows were placed into their openings we used 6" ProtectoWrap (sp?) along the sides and then one strip across the top covering the side taping. Same for the door frame. A year after completing the cabin we screened in the front porch. What a difference it made keeping bugs outside where they belong. Your cabin should last a long time. Dick Proenneke would compliment you on the build. 👍👍👍

I tell ya, I’ve watched this one video more than any others. I love the size, how you used the wood slats, your creativity with the live edge trim👍👍 ALL of it. I’ve built a Nana Cabin much like this but smaller 8x10, but I can’t wait to build another 🥴you’re humble and inspiring ❣️keep it up, I’m a fan
