Keeping up on Firewood | Heating The Off-Grid Cabin
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- It's January and 30°F outside! I don't care how much you love the interior of a cozy little cabin, it feels so good to get outside on the warmer days. I know, some people don't think of 30°F as warm. But we had around -25°F not long ago! Comparatively, this day was beautiful and worthy of some time outdoors.
As we said at the beginning of the video, our wood stove is significantly smaller than the one in Levi's parents' big cabin. So all the firewood we cut this summer is a bit too big for our little stove. It does fit in the stove but it's a pain to squeeze it in there. When we get the chance, we like to go grab some dead-standing spruce out of the forest to make the next few fires a little easier on ourselves!
Plus, Henry and I can't spend every single day in the 200 sqft tiny cabin that we are living in right now. That's a recipe for cabin fever!
Every day we get a little closer to being able to work on our property again! Once I am past the 6-week weight limits from the c-section, I will try out the snowshoes a bit and that will mean I could help cut some trees at the homestead! We will probably do a little winter cutting so that I can start saving smaller dead spruce for my railings in the cabin loft!
I also have big plans to build a natural / spruce moose fence around my garden, which I could start at any time that we cut the trees! Every day that Henry gets a little bigger, we can do a little more. And as always, we have big plans!
Henry is growing like a weed! He is approaching 5 weeks old in this video and over 10lbs already. He loves naps in his wrap and is starting to smile a bit. We've received so many gifts for Henry, thank you to everyone who has sent him sweet little gifts!

FSo nice to get some fresh air! The snow is beautiful. Little baby looks like he is growing, love the red sleeper! stay warm & cozy~!
Great day as a family. Henry is going to have a great life growing up in Alaska
I love watching videos.i have not long started watching and I must say I am really enjoying them.Thank you for sharing your life.😊😊🧸
Awesome to see you guys out and doing. As a guy that burnt wood for decades I'm a firm believer of it doesn't matter how much wood you have put up. If you have a nice winters day cutting wood was right up there with ice fishing for me. I like being in the woods using my body the way it was intended. Honestly I could spend a day just leisurely splitting wood with axe, wedge and sledge all the while finding pleasure and contentment in the process. I think the fact that you are doing something productive and immediately useful helps even more with the cabin fever. Be safe and enjoy!
agree with you!
No helmets? Please be careful and safe! I love your videos. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures and daily life. God bless!
Hi great to see you all out side keep warm ❄️👶🏻🍼
I’m sure it felt great to get out of the cabin. I didn’t realize trees in Alaska could have moss….if that’s what was hanging from the first one Levi cut down. Stay safe & warm. I love seeing Henry on IG.
Good morning!! Henry is just precious!! Have a blessed day.
Wow your warmer than us in MI it is 4 degrees here !
I love both of you, but do your husband work, just don't keep killing yourself, work and babysit, having baby don't mean man at cheating
You amaze me loading firewood and holding the baby. Good job! I was thinking it would be nice to live in Alaska like you do, but nope==here in Alabama we had 18 degree weather and that was enough for me!!! We can't even operate with just a half inch of snow. BUT LOVE TO WATCH IT! GOOD JOB!
Looked like a good day to be out getting firewood. Little Henry is so lucky that he is going to grow up in the bush of Alaska 😊
P.S Consider a new wood haling sleigh with room to stand on the back :)
Lookin hood! Glad y'all are making it work safe with the baby, your doing great!
Have you seen the wider sleds? You could double your loads!
It was so fun watching you and Evi working. It really is like a fantasy land out there in the snow.
Hello everyone I hope you are doing well Becca take care.
Becca your a trooper ! The fresh air , the noises Starting little henry's life off right :)), Having a baby in front is like having a bad back , You certainly learn what your knees are for :) & Levi backs up like a old trucker :) Great Video !
Looks like a nice day. Bet that box comes in handy.
Gus is so white from playing in the snow, he blends right in. ❤😊
GREAT TEAM WITH A HANDSOME BABY.
Fire wood 🪵 nice
Little Henry is developing a close bound to mummy, and getting a crash course in tree cutting.😂😂Love your videos. All the best. Oh! what kind of dog do you have? Looks like a Saint Bernard.
You are a great mommy❤
You should burn cutoff branches so less fire hazard in summer!
Is that a stihl 250..?
It is a Stihl MS180. We like the size for carrying on the snowmachine or an ATV.
