- We came back to a frozen cabin and share some wild game cooking. I ended up getting my deer and we had the first snowfall of the season. #outdoors #homesteading #diy
I read the entire Ryan’s th-cam.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 Plans and was able to make a shed plan. Using Ryan’s Shed Plans alone, the shed itself is great. Where I wish I knew more is with respect to ground preparation and foundations. Maybe that's beyond the scope of Ryan’s Shed Plans.
Thanks again Kyle
respect to off grid winter livin !
Everything looks smooth good... the food is mouth watering... can taste it with my eyes. Wonderful video. Thank you...
love your cabin, enjoy❤️
Awesome mostly address sheds that the author has built in the past and high-quality sheds at that. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxzaRUJNcbypw-fRBDbqqz43ULIa-1EGP- He does have tips on specific aspects of the shed construction in each example. I get value out of this book by getting ideas on what features will work for MY sheds that I design myself. It has terrific photos, all are professional in quality. Book is quality coffee-table style--shiny, thick paper and a soft cover that is also high quality. I like it.
Little, sweet Kitty cat sleeping around @840 😻😻 Thank you fir caring for her 🙏
Nice and peaceful.
Wont hurt nothing electronics love the cold. As far as your fridge it will simply not run because the temps are so low. Once it warms up it will start running again.
Keep up the great videos Kyle your doing it so Right!!!
whar a wonderful retreat for u and kera, spaniel and cat, good wood to heat and ciik too. Rhoda Bowen
Hello from the highlands of Scotland 🏴🏴🏴
"It is what it is" . . . good guy. Great relaxing video . . . kinda like Michigan winter.
Kyles, this is the first time I visit your channel. Very good!!
quick tip about when firing up a stove in a cold cabin... first open the damper all the way and then preheat the flue a bit with your kindling as you initially get the fire started, as it helps to create an updraft that keeps the smoke from billowing out the front of the stove. just makes it less smokey inside as you're feeding the fire and leaving the woodstove door open.
never hurts to clean the ashes out as well as. You will get much better performance from your stove and much better heat transfer.
My trick, for firing the fireplace,roll up many sheets of a journal, twist it, put fire to it and place it high-the chimney , in order to warning up the pipe
My thoughts also
Congratulations on the Spike stay warm
Awesome video stay warm
I remember Birch trees while growing up in Minnesota. They would peel off like paper. I notice you use that instead of actual paper under your kindling. I have moved back to Minnesota after leaving 40 years ago. I have lived in many states throughout my lifetime. Great times, great people, a lifetime of experiences. My home, here and now, is Minnesota. You represent us perfectly!
Indoor plumbing has a lot going for it!
Glad your back...
Happy to see a new video!!
Grouse tortellini!! I’m doing that! Thanks for sharing. I love to live off the grid too.
Love your channel, Kyle.
You know? That wood ash is excellent fertilizer for your garden. Save it and use it next spring on your above ground gardens. Wood ash has a lot of uses on a homestead.
Sure is beautiful there
Is that like a Quail.? I have went back and watch all of them. I am so proud of you and Ceria. You to are very a making to me and I'm 60 years old. Ceria I have seen all of you and skeeter . When you putting more out I can't wait. What's the cats name kitty. Yall be safe out there.
Happy Thanksgiving and successful hunting.
How about the chickens? Beautiful post card scene!
Kyle normally keeps things nice and toasty
Looks like lots of us are curious about the chickens.
So pretty with all the fresh snow laying on the pines!
Congratulations on a successful hunt! Keep living the dream Kyle and Cierra AND Skeeter.
Great video.
Great visit❣️
Nice video Kyle. Thanks.
Great video as always. Thanks for sharing
So proud to see you guys still care how you live being as young as you are. It brings back memories for me from growing up in the 60s and living poorly, but couldn't ask for any better memories or growing up any other way. Getting up on a cold morning getting the fire going helping my granny make home made Biscuits and gravy and set by the fire to eat and stay warm....ahhh really would give anything to go back.
Fridge compressors and LCD/LED (most electronics actually) are fine as long as you let them warm up before you use them. I agree about not having running water. Off grid is perfect for a property you want to leave for periods of time.
I’m glad to see Skeeter ran around
Thank you for talking about a frozen cabin and why things are plumbed that way ! 😎
Version ribs are delicious 😋 😍 👌🏾
What a wonderful life experience!!! 🤗❤️👏🌟🎶🇨🇦
I've been watching these channels for a while now and I have never seen a brick type stove (we call them terracota in Romania) in these log cabins in North America. I own a house in the country (I moved my inlaws there and they maintain it) and we have these small mobile terracota stoves with heat reclaimers just above them. The heat reclaimer becomes ultra hot in 2 minutes so that is the first to heat the home, then, after an hour the stove becomes hot as well but if the fire goes out the stove stays hot then warm for 5 - 7 - 10 hours depending on the cold outside. With your metal stove you can't store any heat - it is immediately released to the room (which is fine when the cabin is frozen) but this means it will also get cold fast when the fire is out. Am I right? We had a metal stove and sold it. Cast iron stove would be a step better because cast iron stores heat longer. Love your vids anyway!
Thanks for video
You had great meals with you meat from hunt
Take care and Happy Thanksgiving to you Cierra Skeeter and kitty
See you all in next video
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jamaica 🇯🇲 here great seeing you both be safe and warm
I can see getting your kids to shovel the snow for water when you have them. Perfect little kid job
Deer camp is the best
Grouse stew yummy. Venison oh how I miss all that good food. Congrats on the deer.
Grose looked yummy, try some diced apple in with your venison it's yummy, happy hunting
You've made a valid point about not worrying about the waterlines freezing while gone, if you don't have them, they don't freeze...lol Or the TV, mostly we don't need those either. Congratulations on the deer harvest, and legal deer is a big deer if it fills a freezer. Fingers crossed Ciera fills her tag as well, more meat to eat. Love what you're doing ❤️
The cabin looked beautiful with the snow covered trees all around it!
Good living❤❤
I live completely off grid with running water. Pretty easy to create a low point in your plumbing with a drain valve. Can leave anytime and not have to worry about pipes freezing. I live in cascade mountains.
To be fair I have a regular three bedroom two bathroom house and I can pretty easily drain the system as well. Two valves and a garden hose and the house can be freeze proof in half an hour or less.
Most houses, every one I've lived in, is not hard to winterize if needed.
While it may be easy in principle to set up plumbing to be drained, it is also easy to miss a low point that can freeze and break pipes. You might not realize how cold it can get at Kyle's cabin. (The record low temperature in our area of Minnesota near Kyle's place is -56ºF.) Even if Kyle did have a well and pressure water, the service lines would have to drop down to at least 4' below the surface and have a freeze proof inlet valve with drain to clear out the water lines.
@@noyopacific all my water lines are buried 4' down. Pex water lines have an insane expansion ratio meaning they can freeze and expand a couple inches before they'll even break. I'm out here in the mountains living with running water completely off grid. I've got some experience.
@@Hardcore-Homestead I'm not doubting that this has worked for you. I don't know how cold it gets where you are but I'd guess it might not get as cold as the Minnesota Northwoods. The ability of Pex to expand is reduced under extreme cold. If you Google the question: "will Pex pipe burst when frozen?" you might be surprised what you see. Again, I'm not disputing this has worked for you. I'm sure your advice is well-intentioned.
@@noyopacific there's alot more to problem solving than just googling things. The ability for pex to expand doesn't mean you can run it on the ground exposed. But underground and then plumb it on the interior of your home and you're never going to have a problem unless you're leaving for a while and that's when you drain it. It's -15 where I live. But it doesn't matter how cold it is when you don't have any water in your pipes.
Kyle has a tendency to highlight certain aspects of his life that he refers to as "simple". More than likely he doesn't have a well and running water because he couldn't afford it because he is intelligently paying for things out of pocket and not using debt- a method I agree with. Mark my words, if they have kids they'll have running water. When they have water they'll have a drain line. And when they leave they will drain it and when they come home they will fill it and be totally fine.
The boss of the swamp lives in the far north with -30 and even lower temperatures. He has extensive videos on his plumbing.
My intentions behind my original comment are good. They also come from experience. Im not watching people on youtube while im in the suburbs or a city. I'm in the boonies. Completely off grid, with kids, a job, a regular life for the most part but completely off grid and in a location some would even call remote.
Happy Thanksgiving and good luck on the hunting! I definitely know the cold cabin routine very well.
Hi, make a enclosure for generator!
Beautiful scenery lovie doing good with warming the home. Awesome getting a deer. God bless love you guys New Zealand.
Hi to you both. Yes winter has arrived and you must glad to have gotten a deer. I’m sure it will be a source of meat for the winter. Until your next video,take care and be safe.(Judy NB)🌲🇨🇦
Happy Thanksgiving ❤️✡️✝️🇺🇸
Chào bạn, tôi đến từ Việt Nam, bạn làm video rất hay thật tuyệt vời..💗💗👍👍

Super jealous great times definitely something I wanted when I was younger Happy for you guys hope you are too
Your hearth is awesome
Great Video as always
(Tom here.)
It's great to see you back doing videos again, Kyle!!! Be careful out there hunting and enjoying the wildlife!! I hope Cierra is feeling better. Take care.....both of you!!!!
I really enjoy your videos Kyle. The scenery, the information you give....you really know how to hold the attention of your viewers. It truly is not a lifestyle for the weak of heart. Anyway, I hope you continue to share your videos ....they are really interesting.
Great video. Curious how the chickens are doing, especially when you’re away.
Been kinda wonderin' that myself here of late!🤔
At the first glance I thought it is the Fouch family house!
Балдёжь!👍
Congratulations on the deer.Wishing a Happy Thanksgiving to you both and your family
Beautiful landscape. Thanks for sharing.
Enjoy 😉 Merry Christmas to you and your family 👪 ❤️
Love this. In the 60’s on, we had an Off Grid Cabin in MN. Every weekend with my grandparents, out we went! Beautiful memories of simpler times 💕 Fires, outhouses, oil lamps, carting water from the well, playing in the snow. Ahhhhhh.
Nice wood pile - Security for warmth....what about your chickens? brrr winter wonderland....
the appliances are probably ok. Our camper sits unheated during winter storage with a refrigerator and television inside and they're fine.
Good luck with the muzzleloader Kyle. Glad to hear you got a small buck with your rifle. Keep em coming Kyle, you've always brought great content to you tube! Thanks for sharing
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
Happy thanksgiving Haywood Jablome!
@@KYLESCABIN I love your channel Kyle. I subscribed way back in the day. Please be safe and give Skeeter a pet from your biggest fan in NJ.
@@haywoodjablome6645 will do! I appreciate the long time support. I appreciate your channel name as well
@@KYLESCABIN I must admit I took it from one of my favorite fake names from the Howard Stern Show!
Your doing a excellent job well done 👍 I love the rural lifestyle and the wood stove and your cooking is gourmet so I know your doing fine today happy thanksgiving to your family!
Looks like you actually had a pretty nice day for this video! Always envious of your cabin and independent lifestyle! Keep it up!
Sure made me hungry when you were cooking up the back strap. When my husband & I get our first deer of the season we have back strap & eggs!
I like to use the neck or shoulder and cook it Mississippi pot roast style..
You guys have a happy and safe Thanksgiving, and thanks for sharing again!
Hey Kyle, I don't know what wild game cookbook you've got, but I highly recommend the L.L.Bean Wild Game Cookbook. I've got it and love the thing. Steven Rinella also has out the MeatEater Wild Fish and Game cookbook, which I don't have, but plan on getting because everyone I know insists that it's great. Keep truckin' amigo!
Happy Thanksgiving. I love your videos, for some reason they help me with my anxiety.
Love that old gas can Kyle. Does the job and no complicated pour spouts. We never really did need that junk. I have an old one too. It’s a treasure. Just can’t let them rust.
Congratulations on the deer.... I’d definitely be interested in some of the new recipes your trying and share it with family.
Awesome! you're hardly starving!!
Winter time is everyone's ideal for a log cabin I'm sure, the scenery and the fire, chopping logs and keeping yourselves warm. Great time of year.
I also miss the update about the chickens Kyle...
I live in a tipi right now and it got down to about 10f last night. I had to poop first thing when I got up and my fingers froze… people think this kind of off-grid living is full of discomfort but it’s not. Those cold times are short-lived and actually feel good. They definitely make the warmth more appreciated. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the sissy-society lifestyle our world cherishes so much.
Have a happy thanksgiving to you guys me and my wife are in north ga. Now and it’s about 28 degrees right now it’s time to fire up the wood stove . God bless.
As always Kyle very interesting video. Glad Cierra is on the mend. Good job on your deer. Not something we have much of in Queensland. Summer coming for us, already had a few very warm days. Not my favourite time of the year 🙄.
Great video lovely cabin looking forward to to more
I have found that when our cabin is totally cold it takes 24 hours to get the building warmed up.
Yes thats what it takes for ours as well.
Congratulations on the deer, you two. The backstrap looked good.👍
Stay warm out there, Kyle! Love the content you put out. Cheers brother.
That cat is living the dream!
I love your positive attitude
Tacos de venado!!
