- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ต.ค. 2024
- Ledge Rapids is an old off grid log cabin along the St John River in the North Maine Woods.
Not much of it's history is documented and it has certainly been there a while. This is the first video of the cabin build series. We went to inspect the cabin and the site, take measurements and spend our first overnight on location. I will officially start this project in 2021. This is an old log cabin in the north maine woods that is part of a camp site located along the banks of the st john river. #logcabin #cabin #themainewoods

For me, the ideas in th-cam.com/users/postUgkxy_pn55PK60wAV3X_C_RoLS_67mNonoCE Plans were a starting point for building different sheds . Ryan gives ideas that allow an individual to draw nicest conclusions into the design and building of his or her own shed.
I cant wait to see more of the build. Looks like another awesome place in Maine. Be safe out there.
Thanks Shane
I stopped at that cabin 20 years ago for lunch. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to hopefully some episodes of a rebuild!
Definitely!
Keep the videos coming. That's a great part of the world you are showing. I like the idea that you are fixing up these old cabins. They have a lot of character.
I’m trying, there are cabins out there that need saving but there’s people making it difficult and these projects keep getting shut down
@@TheMaineWoods That's never fun to deal with.
and aaaallllllll the river fish you can get... this would be my happy place.
👍
I can’t wait to see the building process... it’s so awesome to have a place like this to run away too . Thanks for taking us with u ! LiveAction
Thanks!
I built a log cabin on AZISCOHOS LAKE north western Maine when I was 22yrs old ,on Rasberry road, caught brook trout, salmon, smelt grouse,deer, saw moose, bear, l no longer have it paper company decided to price it out of my range.Had more fun than your supposed to, with wife kids and friends. I was blessed to have spent a lifetime up there,still go up but every one slows down, happy man.recomend to do it as long as you can 70plus yrs.
That is the goal. I'm planning on doing the same for myself when I find the right piece of property to do so.
I miss living up there born and raised North Maine moved away at 19
I grew up in vermont, I consider Maine home now
Great little cabin can’t wait to see the build!
Coming soon!
Just subscribed after watching this video! Looking forward to catching up on all of your video's! 👍 🤠 🇺🇸 Phx. Az.
Beautiful
It is
All the best from Germany
👍
ROTFL I thought the video switched to My Self Reliance channel when that music came on. Lol 😆
Those soundtracks are soo good, love my self reliance
Just found this channel and loving it
Thanks, glad you like it.
I love your work and your videos. I picked up a pair of the Hokolin lights Those things are incredible!!
Where did you learn all of your carpentry skills? You’re doing a very noble job of restoring these old cabins for not only yourself but for future users that you may never know. I’m waiting for part 3 of your latest video to see how you install the new floor in the cabin. Best wishes and keep up your great work!
I’m learning as i go, I don’t have any skills
@@TheMaineWoods remarkable! Love it
Found this channel a few months ago. Really enjoy it. We shed hunt/trout fish as well up there, it is a blast. Keep up the good work. Dean
Awesome! Thank you!
I always wanted to fish the Saint john...cabin looks like a small chore but well worth it good luck from Washington County maine
Full of muskie now
Beautiful log cabin and location! I’m in the process of building one myself right now
Nice! Where?
Beautiful 😊
Thanks
The English language is a complex and powerful communication tool. It's (= it is, with apostrophe) well worth understanding its (=belonging to it, no apostrophe) peculiarities.
Just found your channel and I’m looking forward to seeing more of the majestic Maine👍. 12 hrs to Acadia with the camper 3x and looking forward to more trips to the interior next.
Thanks, glad you like it, how did you find the channel?
@@TheMaineWoods Your cabin video came up on my recommended list. I view cabin, backpacking, canoeing and backcountry type videos. Keep up the good work!
@@JKuehn Awesome, good to know, you are the type of audience I'm trying to engage more with my videos, I've been trying to use new hashtags and other keywords so that people like you can find my videos, I've mostly only reached people looking for "shed hunting" content which is a very small audience on youtube.
Awesome location!
sure is!
Just looked this place up on a map. Wow that’s remote. Love the video. Just subscribed
That looks like a good place to fish for Salmon.
St John watershed has muskellunge
great video, I need to get back to Maine!!
Thanks, do it!
thats a awsome place u have id have a hard time ever leaving
You can go visit it and stay there, it's part of an authorized campsite on the St. John River in the North Maine Woods
@@TheMaineWoods that is good to know i live in Maine aswell i forage for wilde edibles im located central maine and have been wanting to do some exploring in that area
@@justinkinney5773 It's a great trip, I canoed the river in 2019 when I first visited the cabin. I did not film this well but here is the link th-cam.com/video/_iaH7ACxd6Q/w-d-xo.html
@@TheMaineWoods Do you work for NMW? I walked in to the cabin several years ago when Moody Bridge was still in. Must take a long while to get there now?
@@garybrown9311 yes, working for NMW on this project, it takes about 3 1/2 hours to get to it from Allagash
Awesome you two Hey Cory is that the Allagash River??
Great that you will help Rebuild
The Cabin next year good for you and others 👍👍🇺🇸🦌
Good Luck hunting on opening day to day Saturday oct 31 for Residences only 🦌🦌
I think you guys have some ❄ snow up high??
Again good luck too all in the woods 🦌 👍👍
The Vermonter
The cabin is on the St John, the waterfall is Allagash Falls, snow on the way!
Thank you Cory 👍🦌 Good Luck 👍
@@lambertsaldi1550 same to you
That is a amazing cabin, and great video.
Thanks!
Nice...
👍
So now that it's 2021, have you begun working on this cabin, or is that an autumn project? Can't wait to watch your video (hopefully more than one) of the work on the cabin and camping as you work. We housebound people really enjoy that.
This project is still in the planning stages, there’s a lot involved with it but we have another big project we are excited to share with you
Nice fire starter
👍
guess that dam pine beetle is everywhere.
That's Shawn James music LOL
Yes it is, love My Self Reliance channel
Where on the St John are you? Ive got family in St Francis. Been fishing & camping up there for years. Love it.
9 mile bridge
Moving my family to Maine in the next year, coming all the way from Florida... went to Bar Harbor on vacation last June, worked our way all around Acadia and we fell in love...can't wait to get back to that amazing landscape. Awesome video man👍
Thanks, it's a good place to live.
Is that Alagash falls?Some friends and I did Alagash back in the seventies, Telos,Chamberlain, eagle?,can't remember but,the feeling s still there,west branch of the penobscot,long time ago.
Yes it is
Hey kory hope you and Gracie are doing well I miss you
Hey Henry, thanks buddy!
Just stumbled across your channel, cool videos man. Was up to Red Pine just a couple of weekends before this video aired. Let me know if you need a hand this summer, Id be happy to help with the effort.
Cool, thanks, unfortunately this project has been halted due to permitting issues and does not look like it will happen now.
@@TheMaineWoods Ahh thats too bad. Well if you ever take on a similar project for any of the other cabins up there, feel free to reach out
@@flight110 Ok, thank you, I will
What is the “oven “ you use to cook beside the fire? Would love to find one.
Nice to see you ang Gracie back, Love the channel, are you rebuilding this for someone or did you buy it?
For North Maine Woods and Nature Conservancy
Do you have to reserve these cabins ?
Nice. And what is the name of the track?
A great leading into song/tune. A beautiful place to be in/at. So have you purchased this lodge or are you being a good citizen & fixing it up in your own time?
This is an official North Maine Woods campsite, I have been hired to repair the cabin.
Did You bring any food for your dog?? I hope So!!
Of course I do
Stopped by this cabin in May with my Dad when we ran the St.John River. The cabin definitely needs work. I believe there was lumber under the tarp that was meant for the rebuild effort. Is there access to this cabin other than the river? Let me know if you need a hand. I might be able to get away for a few days as an assist.
It’s about 1/2 mile walk in from the road, no trail, those materials have since rotted, it’d be a lot of fun to meet up with you out there
@@TheMaineWoods Would enjoy to help. Keep me posted.
Definitely, thanks Dave
I will make you some proper bacon lol
I was wondering about the ownership of the land and these abandon cabins? I really look forward to the restoration.
Check out the vid video description also i will make a video where I talk about it
ich finde deine videos ehr gut - wie bist du zu dieser hütte gekommen? hatte die keinen besitzer mehr?
Shawn a type of inspiration but imo he’s a bit OCD. Enjoy this channel a ton more. Can much better relate overall.
Thanks Maggie, I am very much inspired by Shawn James as well as Dick Proeneke
Meu pedido ⛪🎼🎵🎶🎤
Did you buy this cabin?
I wish I could buy this cabin
It belongs to North Maine Woods
Were you praying before you ate your food?
Yes
@@TheMaineWoods why?
@@jeremiah1528 because I’m thankful i have a meal to eat
1 Timothy 4:4-5
“For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:” “For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.”
I like your St John videos. So are these camps in the Allagash Fort Kent areas? Toying with the idea of a small lot or small camp on St John's up there. Not too easy to find something suitable but I like that Eagle Lake, Fort Kent, Allagash area to get away from the world with the wilderness feel, whatever that means in the modern world with gps, satellite internet, big batteries, generators, etc. I've got dry camps near Rangeley and in the Boundary Waters near Grand Marais and Thunder Bay. Remote today just means driving on a gravel road to your camp but even 40 miles out to town is an hour, so no big deal if you plan once every week or two for restock. Yes winter, no road plowing, so I have wide trach snowmobile with trailer for hauling.
What's the name of the river 🤔
St. John River
Is this cabin open to the public
Yes 👍
@@TheMaineWoods reservation required ??
@@neelsparks355 first come first served
@@neelsparks355 there is another camp cell with its own fire pit about 40 yards north of the cabin, idk what the total occupancy of the site is but i can’t imagine it’d ever be full with the limited amount of use it gets
