Intruder At The Off-Grid Cabin

  • On a recent trip to the cabin I discovered that someone had found it, there were boot prints leading all the way to the cabin. Now that someone knows about it I wasn't able to relax and enjoy myself. In my experience people generally like to destroy things they find. This person could now tamper with items at the cabin , steal or destroy. It appears that they were there before by reading their boot prints. There was no wandering they walked with intent and purpose. This is probably someone that lives near the area and has experience in the outdoors. I purposely made the cabin very difficult to get to with plenty of steep hills, deadfall and thick brush to ward anyone away. I built this cabin shortly after my mom passed away. This kept my mind busy and helped with the mourning process. I knew this cabin would take a long time to complete with my back injury and three hernias.

    You hit the nail on the head when you said they didn't try to enter your cabin. If they really wanted to they would have, so they probably were curious (who wouldn't be) but respect the fact that it is someone else's property. There are many, many good people out there. Looking forward to seeing you back there soon.

    There's a huge difference between natural curiosity and criminal intent, and its quite understandable that if a person came across the cabin they'd be naturally curious about it and look around.
    Its no different to seeing a nice motorcycle or camper in the street and checking it out (visually, not physically).
    There's always a possibility that someone may interfere with, or try to gain entry, this applies to vehicles too.
    I wouldn't let it dampen your enthusiasm, the fact that nothing was damaged or taken indicates that the person was simply curious rather than criminal.

    This reminds me of what happened to me. This past November 2024. I had a pop-up 2 person. Dear blind on state land for deer hunting and and some people did not want me there on state land. Here in northern Michigan, we got dumped on with 3 feet of snow right after Thanksgiving. My son alone took me out there a week later to get my stuff out of the woods. And guess what? The people that did not want me hunting there. Took my blind, my chair. My heater and a 5 gallon pill. That I call a survival kit. Had personal items just to keep me safe and warm a pair of binoculars. My daughter gave me 2 hats that were my late younger brother's that I used every year. They took everything. A true sportsman would never do that to another sportsman.

    I used to put a flashing led light running all the time off a battery inside so it can be seen. Or a sign saying that there are trail cams in operation, you don't need but the meer fact that there might be tends to put people on good behaviour.

    I watch a lot of these 'cabin in the woods' videos......and I'm often wondering if these the cabins are on public land or the posters own property? (especially those who seem to have multiple cabins at their disposal).....I certainly understand your state of mind and need to create while grieving; I've done the same........

    there are times people get lost in the wood. I never leave my cabin locked. There is a sign... if you are lost and need a place, take what you need but no more. Leave what you can to help the next person. If I had found your cabin, I would have been curious and would have looked and also left something you did not have. But also if I needed, I would have entered and stayed... but I would have cut you wood, or left you rabbit or whatever I could leave in thanks. That is the way of the wilderness.
