My cabin
















Moving on to my cabin. Next i'd like to show you a video of the cabin i'm in and some photos the area around the cabin. In the video i show what the inside of my cabin looks like and i take a walk around the perimeter of the cabin. I shot the video before i made a few upgrades to the cabin and before i got it all cleaned up from all the bear carnage from trash left outside the cabin. The photos include the screen door i made, a pic after a little overnight snow on may 5th, my shower facilities, posing with the Honda ATV and what it takes to get water. I do get a lot of my water from the slough and the lake but if i want cleaner water i have to either hike to the river, about a mile or go up the hill to a reservoir fed by a spring from the hill. But the reservoir isn't completed quite yet, still working on that. I was able to use one of the 4 wheelers to go back and forth to Dougs cabin for a couple weeks but after we crossed the river we floated one of the machines across the river and left it there to go up the hill to Murphy Dome. And currently the other 4 wheeler is out of commission. It blew the bearings out of one of the front wheels and we're waiting for some parts on order in town. So for the time being i am hiking to and from Dougs and when it's 40 degrees outside and i hike up to Dougs, about a 15 min. hike, i'm sweating profusely. That should give you idea of the slope i climb almost everyday. In the next post i'll take you on a walk on the trails around the area. And by the way i have lots pics and info and i can't show and tell it all so if you have questions or have something you'd like to see, leave a comment or send me an e-mail.
