Walking the Off The Grid Cabin Trail



Have you ever dreamed of owning your own little slice of heaven on the planet and then molding it into the perfect retreat?

We have and this is how we blazed our way to it.



Make sure you subscribe and never miss a minute of the most epic off grid build ever!

We found the perfect location to build our off the grid cabin! However, it was buried deep down a mountain side through 650ft of thick Canadian forest. As first time cabin/home builders we were excited to get the project under way but, we had no experience with using chain saws, blazing trails, designing or building a solar powered off grid cabin. If you’re new to our blog then welcome to living off the grid 101. We’re here to share with you every step of our adventure.



At this point we’ve got the basic plans for the cabin laid out. We even have the perfect piece of land bought and paid for.

What an incredible feat. I have to give my wife huge props for all the hard work she put in helping me down the trees, attack it with the axe and pretty much maul every tree and shrub into submission. I think her favorite part was wielding the chain saw. I know it was mine!



Well, we are thrilled to say that the trail is finally complete. We’d spent pretty much every waking hour blazing the 650ft trail for the road builder to follow down to the build site. It wasn’t enough to simply mark the trees and let him drive through the woods for one major reason, it’s too tight a squeeze in some places for an excavator to start pushing down trees left and right and not have him end up on someone else’s property. We have a “Stay 2ft from other people’s property rule” to follow here. Every area is different but that’s ours and we’re going to stick by it.



YOUR TURN!





We’d LOVE to hear your comments about the progress and ask you to please comment below.



See you at the top!
