Milling & Building an Off Grid Wood Fired Greenhouse in Zone 1 - Start to Finish.
Mountain Man, Aron and wife, Jennifer come up with a dream build for their self sustainability being so far off the grid. The importance of feeding themselves in between the few and far between trips into civilization is crucial to their well being and comes in very handy when cooking farm to table menu fare for Summer fishing guests. The greenhouse build was started in 2017 and took 2 years to complete. The first planting was Spring of 2019 and so far there have been 6 great years of succession planting in the wood fired greenhouse.

Mountain Men, Could You Live This Life?
Переглядів 13 тис.Місяць тому
December at Eliguk is all about firewood. Once the wood shed is filled, Aron likes to keep using standing dead (beetle killed) Spruce instead of pulling from the wood shed while the snow accumulation holds off. Daily water is fetched for dishes and clean-up, just another day in the life of a Mountain Man.
Transitioning to a Silent Winter Off the Grid
Переглядів 150Місяць тому
At Eliguk Lake, wilderness resort hosts Aron & Jennifer wait for the deep freeze to hit, which will freeze-up the lakes enough to travel on. Right now in November, there's only a few inches and they like to have a foot of good ice before they use it. Another foot of snow would allow them to travel on the rough trails with snow machines. With the last few wind storms the lake ice has cracked and...

    Your video reminded me of our years living at Anahim Lake, fishing the lake and the Dean. My friend, Al Elsey, had videos made c. 1950's of Eliguk lake which were great. We knew Bob and Ginny Stewart of Nimpo too. Very fond memories of hunting and fishing with some great people. Really muss the Chilcotin. Cheers.

    Hello there, May I share the most important news with you ever before? God the Father sent his Holy Son Jesus (Y'shua) to earth to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. After that they put Him in a tomb for 3 days, and on the 3rd day Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people. Then Christ ascended back to heaven. We all must genuinely believe in Christ and receive Him into our life as Savior to be saved. John 1:12 says: " But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you put genuine faith in Christ and receive Him into your life today?

    Thats a mighty fine looking cabin for a mountain man. I have lived in Alaska all my life 77 years and never lived on the road system until 20 years ago.

    Hello and Howdy there, I was wondering, if I can share with you the most important thing ever in life. God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. Then He was put into a tomb for 3 days, after that Abba Father raised Jesus to life.He appeared to people, and went back to heaven. We all must sincerely receive Jesus into our life to be God's child. John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name" Will you today genuinely by faith receive Jesus into your life for salvation?
