Hey Dave, this is Tim. You should put a sign on one of those trees, marking how high the snow is and then in the summer time you can see that marking and realize how much snow you guys had
We have shutters on our family cabin to keep the weight of the snow off the glass. It also helps to keep the yeti from breaking in. Don't laugh, it works; we haven't had a yeti in the cabin for 100 years.
I live down in Utah county & couldn't believe all the snow we consistently were getting. Then finding out Alta& other area's got 800-900 inches just absolutely blew my mind. I couldn't even imagine how much snow that is. Seeing this video& how buried your cabin was definitely helps showcase the amount that came down, it amazes me!! I'm glad you guys are making good progress getting the cabin unburied! Hopefully the damage won't be too pricey. I've heard from a lot of people that their cabins have been destroyed! Stay safe gents! ✌️💙
It's good to see you guys having a safety briefing before going on the mountain. Everyone should do that! And it's nice to see friends gathering together to help.
As a avalanche expert that started learning about avalanches in 1988 in Alaska I'd be extremely careful up there. In the video I can see tons of areas that could bury you very deep if they slid. I hope you all carry beacons, shovels and probe poles. I also worked in mountain rescue and dug out several avalanche victims. It's no joke I hope you get some training.
I Pray for y'all & your families. As a Katrina survivor, a 40ft wave came thru my town & didn't settle down till 5 miles inland. Forcontext, so i know what your going thru, in a different way. Please be safe & ty for taking us along
Hi there - I rarely comment, but wanted to touch base and thank you for the content. Your channel is in my top 10 and I watch a fair bit of TH-cam. I'm disabled from a spine/cord injury, so spend a lot of time by myself (with my dog). TH-cam has become a bit of a game-changer in that I can seek out content that I like and follow along at my own pace as time (and health issues) allow. I completely agree with you about the food you give your dog. My daughter is in the 'dog business' as a trainer and working at a boarding facility as the supervisor of animal husbandry/welfare, training, grooming, etc. We're both huge animal lovers. We feed our dogs a raw food that is mostly meat protein with some fruit and veg (blueberry, kale, carrot, spinach, apple). It has made such a huge difference in our dog's health but his coat too. He is a mix breed dog (83 lb) - a shepherd/malamute cross we're told. He has always had the WORST shedding issue of ANY dog I've ever known. You literally cannot get dressed in dark clothing before you are ready to go out the door for fear of him brushing up against you. We have lint rollers in both vehicles and pretty much in every room in the house, haha. This change in his food has been a night and day difference. So, the food you feed your dog... the real ingredients responsibly sourced, raised and processed, is so important. I'll keep Sunday's in mind if we ever decide to switch him up, or for any trips we may take where toting around raw food may not work. I just have to pull up their website and check to see if it's available to your Canadian dog friends! Thanks for the tip! Heather🇨🇦
Just learned it's not available in Canada, but I will attest to how great this type of food is for your dogs inside and out. I'd highly recommend it. Oh, and I should mention that our Max is a pretty picky eater and he loves his raw, so I'm sure he'd scarf this down too.
Come on now, the man is hugely successful from TV shows, regular business, and youtube 🤣 to him its not luxury or expensive. But to us normies that's expensive
That’s a typical cabin here in Utah. Definitely not luxury around here. Expensive, totally. But nowhere near luxury. The luxury cabins up here are basically mansions.
We lost our cabin in Utah last week. We live about 13 hrs from it and had no idea until a neighbor called. Roof completely fell in and the walls got blasted out. It’s been in the family well over 50 yrs and held a lot of memories. We’re heartbroken and just can’t even believe it.
damn... I'm so sorry to read that. I would be absolutely heartbroken. hell i was heartbroken reading it about y'all. Will you be able to rebuild? I mean it would be so incredibly expensive in today's horrible economy. maybe y'all could get a bunch of pictures and video's put together explaining the history and how important it was to your family and post it here on youtube and maybe on facebook and tiktok as well? try to put a gofundme or something together and try to rebuild it. i wish i had anything from my childhood left but my family didn't hold onto anything. i miss my old property so much id do just about anything to get it back
Hope you guys are successful in clearing that snow. It is unreal, how much is on the ground up there! This season's weather has been off the charts! Good luck, be safe!
Just watching you start up the mountain had me praying for everyones safety even though I knew everyone was safe because this wasn't live. I pray everyone continues to be safe and that the cabin isn't damaged too much. I am looking forward to more of this "cabin rescue." Blessings to all from Proctor Minnesota!
That is a ridiculous amount of snow! I'm so glad you were able to get up to the cabin and dig some of it out. The longer the snow is on it, the more damage it's doing. I hope everything works out!
im from south africa , cape town. and to see a boerboel in america and even more D's dog , is amazing. they are amazing and loyal and veryyyy protective dogs. even tho al the slobber we still love them...
In 1979 we had a 100 year snow in Left Hand Canyon CO. All of our neighbors were coming out of their top floor windows on sleds. It was around 20+ ft. Our rd was closed for weeks. I can't even fathom 40 ft!
Try goin up north in Canada and Alaska. Seen the same thing or more. Either way it's a pan in the ass. I hate snow. Deal with 7 to 8 months of the yr. What these guys are doin isn't easy at all and that snow will destroy a cabin fast if it isn't taken care of
i was thinking that too. especially with all the buckling going on i can pretty much guess that cabin is a few inches shorter than its supposed to be at this point and that paneling pretty much proves it. so one could guess there's gonna be a whole lot of new ways for water to get in and seep through places that it couldn't before. crazy honestly. that snow has to weigh tons...
Also the record flooding that is going to occur is going to destroy a lot of real estate there. The amount of water will simply have no place to go at the rate that it will be melting. I wish the best of luck to everyone there but I also hope they are preparing for the worst possible scenario.
30' of snow that's up there, more snow than I've seen in 44 years. That's a young man's game, I'm no longer built for that much fun but I had fun watching you guys. Thanks for the video.
WOW!!! I live in Arkansas and you can add up the inches of snowfall we've had here in my lifetime and it doesn't come close to what you have over there. Hopefully you can get that snow off of the cabin before it warms up too much and causes more damage. Good luck and stay safe guys!!
His taste in dog food is terrible. There's only one food for a dog like that or any dog and that's raw , raw bones and meat , they need bone in their diet lots of it . However anything is better than kibble.
Not only do I feel claustrophobic - should that cave in - there is no way you'd pull him out in less than 45 minutes of "MORE" digging - so glad everything went OK...
Which is precisely why the very first order of business should have been completely removing all snow from the roof. Doing anything else before that is absolutely foolish.
Wow! I’m in Tahoe and as you have posted we also have record snowfall. Not as much as UT but deep. This season, reports of skiers, boarders and moto snow enthusiasts in avalanches and your videos prove the need for avy gear. At least beacon, probe and shovels.
South of Tahoe seems deeper. I remember deeper snow in the 1960's. Drought has been in the picture since the 1970's. We have had some good wet years in between the super hot and dry years.
Now to someone who lives on an island where 1/2” snow is rare and brings the place to a standstill, I can’t comprehend what 30 ft looks like! Fantastic effort as always 👍🏽
I've been up there sledding many many times. Right by them cabins also. Man that's deep! Crazy to think we used to drive our trucks and trailers all the way up the canyon in the middle of the winter when they used to allow it. Saw a few vehicles hanging off the cliff. Many people stuck. I hope we see more snow years like this also.
Dangerous stuff. Careful of deep snow in ravines. Huge pockets beneath the snow….poof…you just disappear. The surface collapses. Stay together. Everyone gets a beacon.
Absolutely incredible! You guys don’t usually get that much moisture.I have only ever gone through something like that once. It was about 12ft over 3 days in southern bc Canada. In that much fresh when you slow down on your sled you almost have to do a big controlled wheelie to get back up on plane. It’s almost got the same characteristics as water. We had 12ft of powder on the cabin roof as it couldn’t slide off because it was that deep all around the cabin too.the worst part was it warmed up and rained and the snow acted like a sponge and all that weight on the roof started to crack and break all or the beams and trusses. I had to get up on the roof and dig off as much as I could to relieve the weight. We lost half of the ski lodge as the roof wasn’t as steep.
Holy shit man. Seeing how deep that tunnel that Alen dug was seriously stressing me out. My blood pressure doesn't rise very often from videos but these guys are awesome and id hate to see anything bad happen to any of them... That tunnel was definitely more dangerous than the diving accident a few vids back... be careful yall.
I'm absolutely blown away as to the amount of snow you guys have. WOW! You guys did an absolutely epic job in videoing your adventure, and this truly was an adventure. Be safe out there 👍✌️🇺🇲
You need to mark several trees at the snow level with ribbons or spray paint or something. That'll make for a very interesting conversation piece for years to come.
Unbelievable you always help everyone and your own house is almost destroyed by the snow. Hope you can keep it without damage. Greetings from the Netherlands
This shows you the drive heavy D has .oh and the rest of the crew all have a drive to play hard be respectful and to treat everyone the way you wish to be treated .they are the diesel brothers.
Sadly, Ken Block ( the Legend of racing) died in snowmobile accident in Utah 3 months ago. Even "experts" with the best training and equipment are no match for these kind of snow conditions. Definitely beyond risky for the team to even go up there with all the Avalanches occurring. RIP Ken.
Brother, thank you so so much for all that you do. You are one of the most incredible & inspirational people I’ve ever seen in my entire life! You are such a good man and I can’t describe how much your videos mean to me, & millions others. You are just such a great person brother. God Bless you 🙏🏻
Not only that bud, you gotta realize we gotta clear the snow so we can have machines down there. Also we gotta make sure the casket and family can reach the grave sight. A lot more than dirt and coffins
That is a lot of snow. Hopefully it will help the states along the Colorado river that are still in a drought when it melts. And hopefully a few more snow fall that are good but not records like this year will follow to really end the drought affecting these states.
Daves videos make me want to move to Utah so bad. Seems like there's so much fun stuff to do literally all year round. After you acquire the toys though lol.
Absolutely insane. Glad to see you are all ok. Just being in the cabin would have made me very nervous So much pressure from that unimaginable amount of snow. WOW.
i dont think it will be a big problem .there people live off grid up in mountains and get between 500 to 700 inches every winter and they live through it .
@@UsaRubber check your facts, The Great Basin doesn’t have a “downstream” that outflows to a coast. The Great Salt Lake is the terminus of a watershed, hence why it is salty due to evaporation. The Great Salt Lake has been steadily shrinking for millennia. You should have paid better attention in school.
I had about 6 feet of snow on my cabin in mt pleasant utah this winter and I was worried. Thankfully it slide off without any problems. Although it did tear my chimney off when it did.
Awesome video reminded me when I used to plow snow for 13 years in South Lake Tahoe the top of Kingsbury grade. Really enjoyed the snowmobile rides also took me back to when I used to ride my snowmobile that kind of snow keep up the awesome videos
I hope yall are doing well brother D&D I hope you know you have a ton of great people around the world that would come up to Utah to help dig your cabin out if you ever need help my friend we are here for you all you do so much for so many and you never ask for anything from it you all make me humble to know that people like you guys are making a difference one piece one person at a time if everyone would be like Dave this world would be such a wonderful place and you guys work together so hard and you never forget where you came from to get to the place you are now ask and help is on your way brother Dave
I’m really sorry that your cabin is so damaged. If it’s any consolation, all that melted snow will end up in Arizona and we are running out of water so we are eternally grateful. GOD Bless you all. 🙏💖🙏
Having to shovel your way down to the third story window to get in the cabin is quite the descriptive statement. You should put a permanent mark on the side of the cabin as a reminder of how wild it was. Incredible.
Be sure to give your propane system a good inspection when things thaw out! Lots of leaks and explosions this winter. Give your regulators a real good look in particular.
Watching this from Switzerland, my respect for you. Heavy conditions that you were dealing with. Having said this, I think you Guys would really, really like our Mountains 😊
That deep snow action hits a different vibe since Ken's accident. All is fun & games until a snowmobil lands on your head and kills you. Stay safe everybody... 👀

Hope the best for you your family, your vacation home and all of our future keep working hard boys love all you do.
@@Mrtyguy Its not global warming, its climate change. The winter in 1983 was caused by a sudden jump up into the 90s in the valley and it stayed there. Melting the snow much later and causing flooding. Try educating yourself sometime, it might help
That’s absolutely mind blowing! We’ve had a hugely mild winter here in British Columbia,like that snow should be up here and it’s not even a 10th of that.

right! shutters haven't always just been nailed onto the walls for show. they do in fact have a purpose or at least they should!
Seeing (or NOT seeing) your cabin really gives a better perspective of the snow depth.
Yes
the news reports showing buried lift towers was an eye opener previously (hopefully the "news" can report current weather accurately)
What happens when all that snow melts and cabins up there are underwater instead of snow?

@@michelekuhne9179 K. B. is for Ken block, an automotive icon who unfortunately died in a snowmobile accident earlier this year.
@@boeing777pilot5 oh, no, that’s so sad.
Sadly, Ken Block ( the Legend of racing) died in snowmobile accident in Utah 3 months ago. Even "experts" with the best training and equipment are no match for these kind of snow conditions. Definitely beyond risky for the team to even go up there with all the Avalanches occurring. RIP Ken.
Brother, thank you so so much for all that you do. You are one of the most incredible & inspirational people I’ve ever seen in my entire life! You are such a good man and I can’t describe how much your videos mean to me, & millions others. You are just such a great person brother. God Bless you 🙏🏻
Wow! Thank god lake Powell will get some water . I went down Colorado 2020 lowest water in a 100 years & this year is going to be ragging ❤
WOW I NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE THAT DEEP OF SNOW AND ALLEN SURE IS A LIFE SAVER FOR EVERYONE
I don't understand what the point of that was, they already had access to the building via the window
@@trogdor8764 Alan will find a way to save the day, even if it's not necessarily needed 😅.
@@trogdor8764 To take the pressure off the door.
This is much better than those bone searches that will never produce anything of note. More of this please. 👍
Yeah those bones are long gone unless their willing to spend epic amounts of time and money that mission is a lost cause.
Man, this year has been absolutely crazy. Working at a cemetery in Utah, we gotta deal with a lot of this. I hope your cabin is gonna be ok man
but instead of snow its dirt and instead of cabins its coffins.
@@kimmacdonald1678 You’ve never tried to dig graves under several feet of snow have you? In frozen ground? It’s not all dirt and coffins.
Not only that bud, you gotta realize we gotta clear the snow so we can have machines down there. Also we gotta make sure the casket and family can reach the grave sight. A lot more than dirt and coffins
Damn I didn't think of that. You gotta keep all the headstones clear. That's alot of work
Hes cabin is fuct. It will be even worse the next time he goes up there.
Wow! Snow snow and more snow... Beautiful blue skies and a picturess place to ride the machines. Thanks for bringing us along. :)
That is a lot of snow. Hopefully it will help the states along the Colorado river that are still in a drought when it melts. And hopefully a few more snow fall that are good but not records like this year will follow to really end the drought affecting these states.
We definitely need a update video on this. That sucks man hope the best
Daves videos make me want to move to Utah so bad. Seems like there's so much fun stuff to do literally all year round. After you acquire the toys though lol.
Just like anywhere. Money helps 😂
between smoking the house out and putting glass over an open flame, wtf were you guys smokin up there hahha
Absolutely insane. Glad to see you are all ok. Just being in the cabin would have made me very nervous So much pressure from that unimaginable amount of snow. WOW.
The amount of flooding that's gonna come when this starts to melt is gonna be crazy.
i dont think it will be a big problem .there people live off grid up in mountains and get between 500 to 700 inches every winter and they live through it .
Have you ever seen or heard of The Great Salt Lake ? I think it can handle the snowmelt.
Lol it doesnt flood utah it floods down stream smh
@@UsaRubber check your facts, The Great Basin doesn’t have a “downstream” that outflows to a coast. The Great Salt Lake is the terminus of a watershed, hence why it is salty due to evaporation. The Great Salt Lake has been steadily shrinking for millennia.
You should have paid better attention in school.
I had about 6 feet of snow on my cabin in mt pleasant utah this winter and I was worried. Thankfully it slide off without any problems. Although it did tear my chimney off when it did.
I appreciate the safety briefing! You guys make it look easy and fun but there is real danger out there.
Love winter. Snowmobile HEAVEN! Camp in winter is a lot of work but worth every minute. The ADVENTURE!
Awesome video reminded me when I used to plow snow for 13 years in South Lake Tahoe the top of Kingsbury grade. Really enjoyed the snowmobile rides also took me back to when I used to ride my snowmobile that kind of snow keep up the awesome videos
I hope yall are doing well brother D&D I hope you know you have a ton of great people around the world that would come up to Utah to help dig your cabin out if you ever need help my friend we are here for you all you do so much for so many and you never ask for anything from it you all make me humble to know that people like you guys are making a difference one piece one person at a time if everyone would be like Dave this world would be such a wonderful place and you guys work together so hard and you never forget where you came from to get to the place you are now ask and help is on your way brother Dave
Been an amazing adventure. Hope you keep updating on the dig out
I’m really sorry that your cabin is so damaged.
If it’s any consolation, all that melted snow will end up in Arizona and we are running out of water so we are eternally grateful.
GOD Bless you all. 🙏💖🙏
Having to shovel your way down to the third story window to get in the cabin is quite the descriptive statement.
You should put a permanent mark on the side of the cabin as a reminder of how wild it was. Incredible.
What an awesome attitude to have during all of this. The adventure is what its all about!
You know it’s crazy when the snow cat don’t make it to the cabin. Love the videos and the editors are amazing.
I'm kenyan... I've never seen snow...seems kinda fun to play on it
Would love to see a time-lapse video of all that snow melting away in the coming months!
Be sure to give your propane system a good inspection when things thaw out! Lots of leaks and explosions this winter.
Give your regulators a real good look in particular.
2:30 Dave is showing all of us his dog that he owns. And what a dog it is! Absolutely beautiful! Without a doubt, gorgeous, strong and muscular!!
I had HUGE anxiety watching this episode! I would not have gone in that cabin! Scary!
It would be cool to see a HELICOPTER hovering over the cabin to see how much snow you'd clear 😂😂
Need more videos like this keep us updated
Just wait for when all this snow melts - the flooding, the mud avalanches, the chaos and destruction bound to happen somewhere 😮
Watching this from Switzerland, my respect for you. Heavy conditions that you were dealing with.
Having said this, I think you Guys would really, really like our Mountains 😊
If there’s another video about y’all bringing equipment up there, please let us know !! Would love to see the end results ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow snow on another level 😮
It’s crazy how much snow you guys got
The mountains in California are buried in snow also! It’s crazy here! We have broken records with rain and snow fall!
Your Boerboel is one of the nicest examples of the breed that I have seen in many years!! He's gorgeous!
That deep snow action hits a different vibe since Ken's accident. All is fun & games until a snowmobil lands on your head and kills you. Stay safe everybody... 👀
I really hope you can document the entire dig out process. That would be so interesting to watch
And here I am in Canada with shorts and a tee sweating my ballsangios off. Zero snow, 27°C. AC on in the car......
Hey Heavy D, my name is Dan first of all you’re an inspiration to always work hard for your dreams because dreams don’t work unless you do all that aside what I do for a living is work as a field representative and the right hand man for a Public Adjusting company. Our main goal is to represent policy holders in un fair or biased insurance claims for weather related damage, fires, floods or catastrophes. This type of snow event for your vacation home may be right up my alley. I understand you’re a businessman and have probably already gone through the avenues of insurance but if you have any heartache, that’s my specialty. Hope the best for you your family, your vacation home and all of our future keep working hard boys love all you do.
I live in Farmington and I mountain bike up the canyon a ton. I didn't realize that that cabin is yours, I've turned around at it a lot.
Jesus is the only way to Heaven 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amen
Man, this global ‘warming’ is really getting out of hand👀
Thats the point, more extreme weather, colder winters and hotter summers
@Johann G. Schneider BAHAHAHAHA!!!! yeah, keep telling yourself that little fella! 😂😂😂
@@johanng.schneider5808 NPC say what? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@johanng.schneider5808 so the winter of 83 was also extreme weather caused by global warming?
@@Mrtyguy Its not global warming, its climate change. The winter in 1983 was caused by a sudden jump up into the 90s in the valley and it stayed there. Melting the snow much later and causing flooding. Try educating yourself sometime, it might help
My cabin completely collapsed😢, I'm in the canyon you rescued the red snow cat from earlier this season. What a winter!
That’s absolutely mind blowing! We’ve had a hugely mild winter here in British Columbia,like that snow should be up here and it’s not even a 10th of that.
Utah is so amazing what a special place. I wish my family moved out there instead of Virginia.. now I’m heading east. No mountains in sight.
There's never anything wrong with saying a prayer, I'm glad that was added to the video!
