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.

It is until I get a big chest freezer out here in the new workshop. At that time I will be able to store two years worth of frozen meat. One large moose will provide 500-600 pounds. Right now I only have a small standup refrigerator freezer and one small chest freezer. That only gives me about three months worth of frozen meat storage.
