I will update this thread when I can but my property is all the way off the grid so no updates while there. I get FM radio and a satellite phone works but I can't afford one yet. I do grow a mean variety of outdoor plants on the property. Still searching for the elusive best high combined with the best taste after curing when grown outdoors. That is why I keep trying so many varieties.

My daughter lived on the property and went to college last winter until she got snowed out. Last winter was big in Cal with lots of snow. The road to the property was impassible for about a month. Prop is at 2400 to 2700 feet in elavation but have to go over 4000 feet elevation to get in and that is where we get stuck. When I move in permanently I will get a snowmobile or snowcat for winter travel. Maybe even my own snow plow. I have a 1952 KW truck with a 4000 gallon tank I could probably put a plow on.

I got my son started hunting and now he can't get enough. Like a video game come to real life. Nice to see any of my kids can start a nice campfire and spend several nights camping in the snow and still be comfortable and have fun.

Since we are on private land we can make as big a campfire or bonfire as we want. We will still be in trouble if we start a forest fire so we are very careful. There are left over hardwood log piles from previous logging operations that we are trying to get rid of. So plenty of firewood sitting with a new supply all the time. Hope your stayin warm. I will let you know the progress on our cabin.
