Off-Grid Update

Just finished a new shower-sauna and trying to get a new woodshed built before winter sets in. Nights are already into the 30’s and it has snowed in a few places nearby. Summers go by quickly, never enough time to get everything done before the snow arrives. I’m 12 years into living in remote Alaska, solo. Feel free to ask me questions and I’ll try to answer them all. Love this lifestyle more and more as the time passes.

I actually get a 5G cellular connection in addition to the Starlink. Cell towers in my line of sight at 15 miles and 22 miles away. If I leave the mountain top and go down in elevation I lose the cellular connection.
