Thanks for your support. We really appreciate you ❤
Start chopping wood and don't stop until the snow is to deep. Winter survival is the key. If you're gonna be living there all winter you need that stove. Remodeling waits until spring. Best of luck
I completely agree! Prior planning prevents piss poor performance! Be prepared for winter first! Keep extra food on hand! And you can always boil snow for water!
Beautiful property!
73 yr old grandmother watching from Texas. Keep up the good work. This is all about finding your happy place. In 2 yrs, it won’t look the same. ❤
I've had an off grid cabin for 40 years. I could write a book giving you advice for off grid living but there are plenty out there for you to read. The advice I feel you should know from the start is do not put PV panels on the roof. The roof will be comprised. Size your system for future expansion because you will expand. Do not buy a Canadian Tire solar kit or any "all in one box system". Consult with a local solar dealer he can help with budgeting one step at a time.
I’ve stayed in worse cabins. It’s going to be fabulous. The view is great. Looks like someone was able to drive in. No trespassing signs might be helpful, or you may end up with unexpected visitors! Metal roof, solar and a small wind turbine would be ideal. Little steps.
Looks like the wildlife have been trimming the fruit trees.
Invite all your old and new friends for a camp out to help you get started on the renovations and making the property safe for you and Dobby. Those tracks like someone has been driving donuts on the property so could be local youths out for a laugh and free camp ground, please stay safe x
I think it's great!👍👍👍👍 Put up private property signs, let others know!
inspirational mate, loving the videos! 45 apple trees!! lots of cider ;-)
Nice purchase 👍
Man, with all the apple trees there, should be lots of deer sightings. Beautiful property!
You need an ATV with a trailer, it would make life and work more efficient. Start getting firewood now. Great project. Love your dog.
Maybe one day! 🙏
Hmmmm maybe a tractor so u can dig trenches n bucket would help with that too no def tractor
We can help Tyler. Or I will at least. With a little trailer behind to haul things in.
You can do it ,that's the way it was done in the Day .all the best NL Canada
beautiful property!!
Looks like once upon a time this used to be a homestead of sorts. Fruit trees and berries around the cabin will help you during the year. I saw what looked like an overgrown medicinal garden. I could ID comfrey and yarrow as you walked around 0:13. I'm sure there are more I couldn't ID with the quick sweep of the area you did.
priority should be wood stove and wood suppy then look into a ram pump for moving that water up hill...you will need a water storage system and set up rain catchment... its a really nice property...
That cabin has lots of potential. I like the plan to open it up inside. A metal roof would be best and getting the woodstove figured out a priority, plus firewood. You've got this! 💪🏼
Also the log book and signatures is a pretty normal thing here
Many cabin that are more remote are unlocked in case of someone being lost or needing shelter the log books is to let the owners know who and when someone stopped in or passed through
Don't stress on bears we only have black bears in NS so not much to worry about there
Be on the look out for coyotes tho
All coyotes east of Ontario are some precentage wolf some get to the size of a small German shepherd in NS will form packs and there have been some incidents of them attacking people in CB but you dog is what you really have to worry about
Amazing and so peaceful.
Bring the inside out , a nice big undercover wrap around deck, hammock chairs, outside kitchen ! So much potential ! You have a great peaceful property
Just started watching the channel yesterday, with the elevation you are at you should put a wind turbine if you haven’t done so yet. It may not be consistent power but it is all about redundancy.
Check in on a ram pump gridlessness has a video on one.
The tracks look like they could be from a side by side quad.
Nice cabin!
Great video
Congratulation- with your cabin! - Lots of work, but it will be satisfying! I see you have plenty of goldenrod in blooming around your property. Pick the flowers and dry it, lots of medicine-properties -good as tea during wintertime (lots of videos abot it here on youtube )
New beginnings mean you have to keep looking forwards. You can do this. Cheering you and Dobby on from down here in Australia. 🥰🇦🇺🦘
Tyler, I would die for a property like that. The first thing would be getting leagal access with a vehicle to the property. Plant fruit trees, lots of them and read about how to prune and care for them. A way for income once they start producing, Check out what is best for your area. I have done this on a much smaller scale but in the last 10 years I can pick and eat, apples, plums, cherries, red raspberries, blueberries, elder berries, strawberries, blackberries, pears, figs and a small vineyard with several verities. Plant Berries of all kinds in patches, Raised bed gardening. An 4x4ATV with winch to grab logs, a portable saw mill. 15 years ago I spent a week in Cape Breton , a Beautiful place. Make a plan and think about it a lot.. Look into RAM Pumps, no electricity needed to pump water from the stream up to the cabin.
That is a really sweet place. I have a feeling community is going to be drzwn to you in the way that you need. Blessings brave one.
Hello new resident to the area. In this type of situation where the property and "homesite" is so remote and cannot be defended 24/7 when you may be absent the only practical way forward may well be to try to start up a good relationship with the locals. Hopefully the majority are law abiding and respectful of property boundaries and of new people to the area. Ner do wells can be a bigger challenge than you could ever hope to win. Having said that welcome to the Maritimes and Nova Scotia in particular. Always look for the best in your new neighbors. You may be pleasantly surprised. A trail cam or two well hidden in a tree can record who comes by to see what is new in the neighborhood. Have a nice day
Looks like you have a great addition to your area! Trail cams are a great idea. I have them on our property as well. Our property is not this large at all and not remote like this. But, you never know these days.
Welcome to Nova Scotia! Love your content! The area is beautiful and with a lot of elbow grease you will have a stunning property. Very Jealous 🙂. Hoping to live vicariously through you!
If you're ever going to be there with 2+ people, having a bedroom with walls would be nice. Sometimes people are under the weather and need a quiet place to relax or sleep. Also, if you have a large room without walls, it's actually challenging to use the space efficiently.
I would build a sauna or shower house by the creek with a hydraulic ram pump for the water to a raised drum. They aren’t expensive to build and work great. No power needed
Wow! I bought a property sight unseen also. No cabin though. Just land. I have yet to see it. It’s 11 acres in Arizona. Got to get my but over there and check it out. Bold move on your part. Will be interesting to watch your progress…
Instead of ripping and tearing wallsk,do a surgcal removal of materials to save as much materia to reuse.l. They mak rubber roof coating that will make the roof last longer. A Small hydro plant may be in order on the creek to shcarge batttieries. You need a quad to help improve the place.
I had a guy come put that rubber roof coating on an old section of my shop. It works! No problems so far. Fingers crossed. ( that was about a year ago. )
Very nice place. Your going t need a snowmobile. That is how I access my off grid place in winter. Looks like you have an excellent starting point.
It's has great potential, loads to do but a good clean up will go a long way. Most unnerving is the possibility that people have been using it.👍
Very cool. As someone else has mentioned, micro-hydro as opposed to solar is the way to go with running water adjacent to your cabin. That atv trail looks very well used, hope you don't have problems with people used to squatting in your cabin while hunting or such.
I like the idea of micro-hydro but this is a winter place. That creek is going to freeze over solid. Wind and solar would be better. You'll need to store water and keep it warm or plan on spending every day and energy to melt snow.
Now only if i could find a similar property in the US. Yoy have a great opportunity there
Just found this channel, looks like fun. Good Luck!!
Heat is first and foremost. Firewood and insulating one room at least for winter. Solar set up for a jackery or ecoflow….
Hi Tyler, i grew up with an outhouse till I was 10..lol. Don’t miss it..😁🤗
Oh wow,I am so jealous at this.😮😮 thirty years younger and this is my kind of life. Will you be getting a off road vehicle to lug stuff,until you can sort road for van.? Regards from 🇬🇧like head go pro,sees what your seeing. Set up sled system for tome being 😊😊😊😊
That goldenrod & other native plants nearby are medicinal 👍
Hi I'm Jewels from Australia i just discovered your channel and am enjoying your videos there fantastic, look forward to watching you discover your new property
I wish I could do what you are doing. Thank you for bringing us along with you on your journey. I'm loving your vids🥰
Worth every cent !!! Go for it !!!
🙏
As a tip, one of your first investments should in my opinion be a (used) portalble sawmill..
You have plenty of trees, and thus plenty of lumber you can mill ..
Relative cheap/free materials to get the cabin as you want it
Just started watching and want to continue. Might I ask as you scan to go slower. I got a bit dizzy. If I’m the only one, that’s ok too. You will figure it out and we will support you! Good luck.
So beautiful there !!
You r doing an awesome job 💪🏻
My only idea would be ???
I would disassemble the wooded pieces you are discarding …
And start a wood pile of useable items for future projects ??
You can stockpile metals too … future trellises for gardening ??
Screens to cover up raises beds to keep insects out ??
It’s ok to not know what you r gonna do with it …
But ideas will come to you later !
Great progress 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
A few goats and a few sheep will clean that land right up for you. Select cut not clear-cut trees (silvopasture) if you are interested in raising animals in the end you will create shade wind and shade for livestock and end up with a park like setting. apple trees and blueberries will invite deer on the property if you're a hunter or nature buff
I like the go pro on the head vibes! It’s nice to get a peek at the vision too.
The stove in the middle is actually nice, you just need to find a round barrel stove. Having the stove centrally located is best for evenly heating the structure.
The chimney hole is already there, just put on a metal roof and flashing around it with new metalbestos pipe.
If you do decide to move the stove to an exterior wall make sure it is on a gable end side so snow sliding off the roof will not damage it.
If you need to patch the roof before you can put on a metal one, use a product called "Through The Roof" that will hold up until you are ready to go metal.
Looks like you may have a lot of wild herbs growing around the cabin so I wouldn't go mowing it all down as you can use them to either eat or as medicine.
Beautiful views. Lots of work but you can do it ❤ stay safe
What an adventure! Looking forward to following your progress and best wishes from South Africa. Subscribed.
After seeing what you are going to live with I'm glad I chose boat life instead of land life. Seriously though, I'd try to make the cabin more like home with your shower and toilet inside. You aren't going to be very comfortable in the winter trucking outside to take care of life's necessities. I have a compost toilet on my boat that I made myself, works great. Setup a gray water area outside your cabin for filtering just don't let food waste get in there or you'll attract animals.
Don’t back the stove up. It’s in the middle so the heat can radiate in all directions to warm the place. Back it up against a wall and you’ll lose 1/2 your heat output to the wall and anything behind it.
My wood stove is backed up to a wall and heats my 1300 sq ft house just fine….i literally have to open windows sometimes! I prefer it against the wall, gives me way more space.
Not if it has a fan on the stove.
As for the no trespassing signs
You should tread lightly there depending on the former owners there could be generations of people that have used the land for hunting camping wheeling etc.
Some people can get really nasty and make your life hell if the feel like you a stepping on their toes even tho you own the property
And depending on where you are and the town roots you could find yourself on a lot of people's shit list just rubbing one person the wrong way
It's your property and you can do what you want with it obviously just take you time and relax when people happen by find out their story and tell them your plans give people some time
That stove is pretty old looking. You might be able to find a smaller more efficient one. I think you have some good ideas for the inside too. I just subscribed!
I would definitely look into making a dam and seeing if the hydro power would be enough for a pump to the cabin/pressure tank or if extra could charge a battery when not in use
Don't need a dam, just a few lengths of pipe reduced down to a jet will run a converted washing machine motor easily.
I’m so glad this video came up in my feed!! Love your new adventure! I spent a summer on cape Briton island near orangedale. That was 53 years ago but it’s a very fond memory. Beautiful country.
wow lots of work to do. hang in there
Tyler
I’m coming along on your adventure. Good luck and be careful.
Great land, nice to have a creek so close. You can dig out that creek, get a gas-powered pump and pump water up to a reservoir at the house.
Always something I've thought of doing but never did. Kudos for you for trying. The tracks look to be UTV, but I'd bet a small 4x4 such as a Ford Ranger would fit as well with what I saw. If your staying there for the winter it looked like there is no insulation in the attic at all.
wow nice property
Nice land. What is it with Canada and selling landlocked property? Well it looks like many people have made it into the cabin recently. Expect Visitors? Your just going to have to take your chain saw and make a trail in for the van. Your going to need the wood for winter anyways. The cabin will be colder than most due to those big windows in Living room. I've subscribed and look forward to more of your life adventure out there.
yep. needs heavy drapes.
They use them in Sweden, I have a Curtain Book. They typically use like a heavy velvet like material. Maybe upholstery type fabric for winter for now. I’m going to look for the book now. 😂 🇺🇸❤️🇨🇦, Crista
New subscriber here. Really excited to see the process. Just keep uploading videos and you will grow.
Thanks so much for following us. We really appreciate it! ! 🙏❤️
I literally found him in my feed only 3-4 days ago and they have grown by 200 subs since then!! So happy for them!! I also joined his Patreon. I want to help this young man and his best friend Dobby with their dream. I went back to the very beginning and watched his van life videos and how he got here. I’m so excited for them! ❤️
Looks like a fairly decent place.
I've watched the videos back to front and you're doing one hell of a job well done 😊
🙏❤️
Looks nice thanks for letting me watch 😊
Man I’m happy for you. You doing it! I love watching off the grid videos and just come across you and Dobby’s channel. Great work on your videos. Love the amazing scenery. I wish you well and look forward to watching you make your dream true. High Five
A diy ram pump should be able to push the water up to your cabin. Check it out.
Stunning landscape and it looks like you own a large area. Going to be very interesting exploring what you have. The outhouse in South Africa is called a long drop.😂
I think I'd get a small tractor with a flail mower and a scraper. You'd be able to clear lots of brush, snow, move firewood around and clean up that access road. You can get all sorts of attachments like post hole diggers, etc to set gates, pole barn posts.
Hi, just found you, but your water thing, do you know the TH-cam channel the nomadic movement? They set up a pump very cheaply and basic to get water up from a small creek or something to their home. It fills up big tanks. It looked like it was a pretty easy thing to do, so you might want to look at that. They did a few months ago.
They live in Panama! Far cry from Canada's East Coast (as in winter?).
I watch them as well. They do use that system. Works for them quiet well.
Pinky, they can use an heating element of sorts. I wish I could find the video I saw about another Canadian off grid cabin on east coast for reference. Will look
Livin the dream !!!!💪🏻
Can’t wait to see the upgrades!
Love your tour of the land, though house is rough but it is easy to gut to see what there is salvageable and rip everything else off.
Like your plan what you are going to do the floor plan.
Can't wait for your land clearing videos.
You should check if a ram pump would work for you getting water to storage tanks.theres a good video by Wranglestar on the capabilties of ram pumps no electricity required.
A new thunder box closer to the house would be great.
A rainwater catchment on the hill with buried PVC down to the cabin could create plenty of water pressure to the cabin.
Loving this new vibe! I can hear the excitement in your voice 😊.
GoPro 👍
Lookin forward to ur adventure, seems like u have alot to learn about living this life but i have a great attitude and the will. I did the same but on a lake in Arkansas on 30 acres, wife and i lived in a school bus we converted as a sleeping area and a 14ft camper for the bathroom/kitchen, lookin forward to this series and feel free to ask us if ur short on knowledge, plenty of us been there and willing to help a young man whos got plenty ahead, good luck! ✌❤
Big plans! So exciting. Weird question....what does burning sage do for a house? What a great property! I recall it's land locked, but I'm not sure what that means in Canada as far as gaining access, vehicles, etc. But it sure is beautiful.
Burning sage can rid a place of unwanted or lingering bad energy
Lots of work but it will be so worth it.
Please don’t eat the random berries. Lol!
Awesome endeavour to achieve your goals, I will be following along to see how you succeed. Which I am confident, with a bit of helpful advice you will be.
Thanks for taking the time to share your journey.
A ram pump could move water up that little hill. Probably wouldn't work in winter though.
New to the channel, this is the second video of yours that I watched. You keep saying we and us I'm only seeing you and your dog so is the dog the second person you're commenting about?
I’m pretty sure she is. I believe it is only Tyler and little Dobby.
You should be able to back up the stove with a piece of horizontal stove pipe only , could be suported by hanging by a wire form the sealing- the stove should be salvage-able, may be new seals. We still use a lot of woodstoves in our cental european mountains.
Gorgeous property! Your cabin will be lovely. I think you can get a variance to gain access with your car. Congratulations.
It take as much or more work to rehab a cabin then build new. I decided to build one about that size and so far I'm at 50 days of work and just finishing the roof now.
Just discovered your channel. Loving it so far. I heard from another youtuber that there are lots of ticks in NS. Be safe.
Hey Tyler! Your cabin has so much potential I love it! I’ve been renovating our cabin so I know that you will make it look and feel great! The view from your deck is killer! What a perfect place to sit and enjoy nature. How far is it to your van? T.
It’s a 15 minute walk one way.
That’s awesome! I’m hoping everything is going well with your reno’s, nothing beats cabin life!
Thanks! I really appreciate that!@@tyleranddobby
Tyler a ramp pump might help you move your water up the hill don’t personally know is pile about them but it dose not require power look them up hope this helps good luck 👍✌️
WHO DOES THE MUSIC, PLEASE !!!!!! IT'S WONDERFUL !!!!!!
You could always talk to me. I could be totally wrong but I have a feeling we had the same loss in our life. I love your property.❤❤❤
❤❤❤ so sorry Zeke. Thoughts are with you. Much love from the US 🇺🇸 , Crista
Go pro is a little dizzying when you spin around too fast. I like the view from the front door side for a kitchen. I am wondering if the apple trees were planted or natural. Tin roofs are very noisy in the rain.
I have a tin roof, it sounds amazing. I love it. Personal preference I suppose.
