RESTORING AN OLD LOG CABIN IN THE MAINE WOODS (with a dog)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2021
- In 2018 when I paddled the St. John River with Gracie, we came across the old cabin at Flaws Bogan. An old U.S Forest Service cabin from the 1930's/40's. It was in rough shape and in need of maintenance so after completing the river trip I contacted North Maine Woods. The director agreed to hire me to make the repairs necessary to preserve the cabin. This is the first video documenting the work I am doing to the cabin. #logcabin #offgrid #cabinbuilding

Thank you Cory and the North Maine woods for undertaking this project and keeping this cabin around for all of us to continue to use while visiting the Saint John river. Great video!
It will be a good place for adventures with the family
Many different designs for each type of project are also included. For example, there are hundreds of designs ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxb2mhCug-GkCWrq69Ce2I0nM0D4QpxAqu for outdoor buildings, from small sheds all the way up to a complete stable. Choose whatever type of shed or storage house is right for you. Pick from fancy ones or more utilitarian designs.
There comes a time in our lives where this is Heaven on Earth for us.
I love seeing people find history and love it so much they save the cabin
Thanks
Hope this is going to be a series? Beautiful cabin in an even more beautiful setting.
Going to try
Can’t get any more beautiful than these woods. Great spot to recharge your batteries. Far from,civilization.
👍
Klamath falls Oregon is watching
very cool. Great job . I Will Be Looking !
Well done, both the cabin and the video, Thanks for sharing this and I look forward to more episodes.
Thanks Robin
Great country. I made a fist full of fishing trips up there in my younger years with my sons,
We can in thru Daquuam , Ashland, Golden Road. We had the opportunity to stay at the U.S. customs facility at Daquuam on one of our trips. Fished the big Black river from the Depot road down to the the Blanchett road. We fished the St John river down to the old hand trolley crossing and on down to the confluence with the Big Black River. Fished the outlet at Ross Lake. We fished at the Thoroughfare and Churchill, the outlet at Clayton Lake. Cunliffe Lake, Clear Lake. This was when the bridge was still crossing over the St John at Ross Mountain Road intersection. Logged a bunch of miles running on those logging roads there. Red pines was another area we camped at.
Lots of great memories. Warms my heart to see the old camps getting new life.
Great job!
No longer a customs facility at Daaquam, I believe the building you stayed in is now a Border Patrol facility, I met two of the BP guys out there this winter, great guys.
The relaxing 🐶😂
👍
Look forward to seeing more of this project.
Me too
Thanks for the video God bless you 🙏 😊
Thank you
This is a great thing your doing. Keep it up and thanks for taking us along !!!
Thanks for coming along, I will have more to show you
Oh how wish for a piece of Paradise like this
Yes, I hoped to have my own spot like this where I can build my own cabin from scratch.
When you arrived at the cabin walked up and turned around the view was breath taking. Well done. Stay safe bud.👍🇺🇸
Thanks Michael
Having enjoyed this cabin earlier this past May I am excited to see the improvements take shape! Would have enjoyed working with you on this project Corey. My apologies for time not being on my side. This is a great undertaking. Many people will enjoy this cabin for years to come thanks to You. All the best with the remaining project and I look forward to future videos of your progress. Well done Corey!!!!
Just got back from installing the metal roof, also added knee bracing to the posts, still have a lot of little things to do but the bulk of the big tasks are complete, it's really come a long way. Water is getting too low to motor the river though, I don't think I will make it back until we get some rain.
Thanks for taking us along; You're the real deal.
Thanks Tyler
This is a work of loving the craft of building the past.
👍
That dog is plum tuckered out with all that hard work your doing. Lol Great job man
lol thanks
Very well done young man. I will be watching from now on. Thank youl
Impressive job.
Thanks George
Amen, great job. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for your work.
Thanks Dennis
I love the northern Maine woods. Went to that area every year while I was growing up. I have a lot of relatives in Oakfield, Presque isle and surrounding areas.
👍
Exelente lo que hiciste en la base y que hayas llevado a tu compañero/@ mascota ! Lo Mejor !! Abrazo desde Argentina !!
Great video in showing another beautiful piece of our State of Maine!!!
Thanks Mike, glad you enjoyed it
Thank you. Happy to see young people stepping up to preserve the old land marks. Hopefully others will appreciate what you’ve done also.
I hope so, the whole point was to save it so it can continue to be used by anyone paddling the river or otherwise, there are several other cabins along the river that need similar attention but it seems as we won't be able to do anything about those.
A worthy project. Well done.
Thanks, lot of history in that cabin, worth saving
@@TheMaineWoods I have heavily involved in some cabin restorations on Ambajejus in Millinocket. The history of the river and the men that worked it is everywhere you turn.
The cabin will be nice when you get it finished. I enjoy your videos
Thanks Barry
Beautiful Area! thanks for taking us along

Great start on the cabin repair. What a beautiful part of our country 🇺🇸 . I can only dream of living somewhere like that! 👍 🤠 🇺🇸 Phx. Az.
A job well done! Keep up the good work!
Paradise :-)
👍
First time I've watched one of your vlogs Cory, excellent work on that foundation, really nice. I always think New Brunswick and Maine are two of the most underappreciated places in Canada/The States, simply nature at it's best!
And gosh I love the pups on UA-cam and Gracie is no exception...big hug from me to her.
Thank you, it was an additional burden but I'm glad I pressed record
very beautiful;
this was a wonderful project, and a great contribution to the preservation of a refuge in a wonderfully beautiful landscape.
👍
“It’s A Great pleasure to see a young man with such passion !!
Your project will be an example to many people who want to start a restoration project in future…
God bless for your patience and care to retain the originality of this cabin .
Thank you for this video too
Excellent perseverance 💪👍🙏🙏🎉🎉
Thank you
Great work! Such a well done video! Love the different shots! Lots of effort!! Can’t wait to see the next one!

Thanks David
Really enjoyed this video. I’ll be watching the progress. I’m hoping you bought this and you are fixing up for yourself and the pup! I mentioned this before, but thanks for sharing your faith by verse!
Glad you enjoyed it
This is one cool cabin👍😊. Love the location. Hope it’s an ongoing project. Looking forward to seeing more👍😍
👍
Excelet work!
Thank you
I envy you and your lab ,to find a place like this would really relax anyone ! Every place always needs work but what a place to work .enjoy the solitude
Gracie has the life
There is nothing like a dog as a adventure companion or just a companion but specially outdoors.
She's a great companion, she never quits and just loves to go with me anywhere
Good job! Leveling a cabin I know all to well. That's a lot of work. But so important to keep up. Thanks for the video. :)
Thanks for watching
Loved this video,this is my dream it’s so relaxing looking at it l can imagine how relaxing it is to be their!!
Thanks
Very nice . I like how your black dog just takes it easy while you do your construction work . Yes , America the beautiful from land to shinning sea .
Excellent job, loved this!
Thanks Jared!
Wow! Good job
Thanks Linda, working on another one
@@TheMaineWoods Hope you make some videos of it
Cory, glad they let you do this, and think you, loved the views and how Gracie sleep while you worked (lol) I see the military training is still present, cleaning is top priority, I do the same thing.
Thanks Andrew, yes I had to make it a priority to start with a clean and organized environment, the cabin is coming along, new metal roof is on, it's been a lot o work but a really fun project.
interesting and fun...
Thanks
Nice work…great project…beautiful location…be safe…
Thanks Norman
Nice job young man
Really great job! Impressive🤗🐝❤️
Thanks
@@TheMaineWoods You’re most welcome🐝🤗❤️
Looks like a great project mate! Really enjoyed the beautiful scenery. You have quite a job ahead of you! Looking forward to future updates.
Thanks 👍looking forward to sharing updates with you
A few years ago I spent three weeks in east Texas building out a hunting cabin - Similar stuff, also had to jack it up, exterior work and did most of the interior... I was coming back from the east coast where I did some higher end carpentry work - Now, for the 4th year in a row I'm about to head east again with a pretty full kit of tools in my 4x4 Astro van - three weeks in upstate NY, a possible project in Manhattan then to my home town at the Jersey shore where I'll mostly relax but have some work waiting there, too... I'll head back the LA in the fall.... I'd like to find another off the beaten path project like this one soon... Good for you, looks fun
That’s cool man, you travel all over
Beautiful place !
It really is!
These are the type of videos I love and what a beautiful and wild part of the world and doing the work on this cabin to keep it tip top and I hope that you do some fishing as I have watched videos about the brook trout and pike up there so peace and love from Scotland 🏴 and stay safe 💪🏴🎣
Definitely
Looking forward to watching this channel
Welcome to the channel Rose
You did a great job.
Thank you 🙏
Het is veel werk, maar je krijgt er wel iets moois voor terug. Prachtig hoe je het aanpakt.👍😀
Great spot lovely lil cabin too
It sure is
Just discovered your channel. I am really enjoying it. We live in Indiana, but love visiting Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire. You channel highlights some of the most beautiful land the country has to offer. Hope you’re around for a long time!
Thanks David
Appears to be similar to our summer cottages . The scenery, in particular. We have got lakes instead of rivers.
Nice
I really enjoyed this video. It's the first one I've seen if your channel. Looking forward to seeing more. Yes, I subscribed
Thank you thank you

Thank you very much!
Love the dog so cute.
She’s the best
peaceful
👍
Very cool thing your doing! Enjoyed this:)
Great photo and great content. It encourage me to keep working even in hard times.
Thank you, just keep going.
Wow, you do very nice work sir. These cabins you work on look like they wouldn't have had many years left in them without all your work.
When they sit on the ground and start to rot they don’t last long
Used to cabin camp nearby at the old logging village at Chesuncook . Keep up the great work.
Thanks
Nice work
Thanks Tom
you saved her. nice job!
still have a lot to do, just got back from a 4 ay trip where I added knee bracing to the posts and installed the metal roof with the help of a friend
Just found your channel and love it! Great selection on background 🎶 music - beautiful 😁
Thanks Susie!

I wish I could come up and help with the cabin, beautiful place. 😍
Work is all done but you can go visit it, it is open to the public
Love the vids! Beautiful views! Keep them up. Wish you would talk. Explain what you doing and such. Get to know you and what all your doing.
Thanks, I recorded a video doing an explanation of what I’m doing, haven’t uploaded it yet

Si vas a ir en el invierno aprovechaq te llevaste la máquina y cortaste bastante leña.hasta el techo debajo contra la.pared te protege y ya tenes leña seca cuando vayas !! Abrazo !!
Wow, I've never seen a canoe with an out board motor before! So cool! But again maybe that's because I live in Arkansas.
It's very common around the waterways in Maine, Thanks for watching Jodie

Awesome, thank you!
Thanks Big please 🍀🎃🆙🍀👌🍀

Greetings from Turner ! We love Gods country.

We used squares of steel above the jack head to spread the weight
Good idea, I didn’t have any and it would have been a long way to go get some
