RE: The garden is DONE and ready to be planted this weekend!! What happened to Dallas's quad?
He did the right thing by opening it up and letting it drain out. Are you building a cabin? I was thought of doing that or buying an existing one on land. What would you recommend?
Yes, we are building a remote cabin.
It all depends on how much of the right tools you have to build, it also depends on the time and energy you have/want to spend building, it also depends where it's being built. Ours being remote is hard to get supplies out to in summer, just a few weeks back we had to get the boat out there before the trail thawed and lake brokeup or it would have had to wait till freeze up again.
I will be posting more about our build once Jay is home from work next weekend, he has the swing arm bearings to do on one of the quads before we can get out there.
Are you guys building this as a get away or to live there? That sounds extremely remote. How expensive is it in tundra land for remote property?
We are building in hopes of eventually moving out there. Remote land is hard to come by around here, we really lucked out with this property. Our lot is 15kms from one main highway (summer trail) and 12kms from the other highway (winter trail). You can make it in by quad but it is best going in with the argo, there is lots of floating bog and muskeg. We aren't quite a tundra, we have big awesome old growth forests around here :)
Here is a drone shot of our lot from last spring
Last summer when our build started
