We install solar panels on the roof of Emily Aisling's cabin with a power bank located inside to provide electricity to her cabin.
Afterwards, we take a few days off and head into the backcountry of Algonquin Park in Ontario Canada to camp, canoe, hike, forage and fish. We cook all of our meals on a campfire, including beef tacos, fish tacos, beef rib steaks and braising ribs, bacon and eggs, pancakes, fried white and sweet potatoes and more. I make herbal tea with fireweed, cedar and spruce, a much needed warm drink after dealing with intermittent rain and incessant strong winds. Cali, our Golden Retriever, spends most of her time swimming, chasing squirrels and has a run-in with a mink after it steals one of our fish and hides it in the rocks in the lake.

Lifting a 28 Foot Log Ridge Beam and Purlins onto My Cabin Alone in the Wilderness, Ep 18
Continuing my off-grid log cabin build Alone in the Canadian wilderness, I install a temporary loft floor to use as a working platform while building the roof of the cabin. Using chainfall hoists hung from cables strung between the trees, I lift three 28 foot purlins and a ridge beam into place, weighing several hundred pounds each. I frame the gable ends with milled logs and 2" lumber, leaving notches for the logs to fall into place. Hoisting the logs and sliding them into the notches was hard work and took several hours each, but it worked exactly how I had hoped.
While I work on the roof, I grill sausages and steaks on the campfire overlooking the meadow in front of the cabin. Cali, my golden retriever, watches me work and chases squirrels and chipmunks between rounds of fetch. To cool off, we go for a long walk along the cobblestone beaches and exposed Canadian Shield bedrock along the shores of Georgian Bay. Wild food is abundant so we snack on raspberries, sour cherries, blueberries, cranberries, winterberries, serviceberries, fireweed and St. John's Wort. Wild food, fish and home grown fruit and vegetables are everywhere now so I'm harvesting and storing daily, including my first tomatoes of the season from the greenhouse by the cabin.
Later in the week, my dog spends the day in my red cedar and canvas canoe out on the water with my friend Nate and I while we explore a new lake, catch fresh fish and fry it on a campfire on a beautiful island. Perch and bass are plentiful in this small lake so after a tasty shore lunch, I take a few back to the cabin for the solar powered freezer in the cellar. Cali practices her deep water dives and swims after her frisbee for hours, always wanting one more retrieve.
Back at the cabin, I build a wood mitre box and saw small trees into 45 degree corner braces for the log posts, beam and purlins to keep the cabin roof from racking. With a solid roof structure now in place, I start installing the first roof rafters, an exciting process as I can now see the final structure of the cabin and within days, the roof will be complete enough to keep the cabin interior dry.
In the next video, I'll be working on those rafters, but I'll also be taking a few days off to go on a backcountry canoe trip with my daughter Emily. Tune in to her channel to see her perspective on the trip as well as to see what other projects she's working on. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC85gGZDfF5fn0R5JQqboVTQ

Building an Off Grid Log Cabin Alone in the Wilderness, Ep17, Framing the Roof, Gable Ends
I install the last wall log on the back of the cabin and frame the gables with half-log posts and lumber before lifting the firs of three log purlins in place. Cali, my wife and I paddle a local river to cool off on a hot day, and I cook a few bear steaks on the campfire for lunches while working on the cabin.

Fishing with Friends (Yes, I have some), Log Gable Posts for the Cabin, Fish Compost
I take a day off the homestead to fish with a couple of friends (Jim Baird and Muskoka Nate), catching over 100 fish and cooking a few on a campfire beside the river. I keep the fish guts and heads to compost with sawdust in my forest garden. I mill gable end posts with an Alaskan chainsaw mill and prepare them for installation this week as I start framing the roof of the log cabin.

Building an Off Grid Log Cabin Alone in the Wilderness, Ep16 | Completed Walls!, Bears, Moose, Fawn
Finally, I complete three of the walls on my off grid log cabin and I begin preparing the top logs for roof framing. Exploring the wilderness around the cabin, I see a mother bear with two cubs, two moose feeding in a marsh, a fawn that I almost step on before noticing it and two snapping turtles laying eggs beside a stream.

Rustic Fence to Keep Moose out of my Off Grid Wilderness Homestead Garden
Moose regularly browse through my vegetable garden and orchard in the northern forest so I continue extending a rustic fence around the perimeter to keep them out. As I expand my permaculture food forest, moose, bear, deer and other animals will become more of problem, so I am planting food for them throughout my land to help expand their population while attracting them to areas outside my forest garden.

Building an Off Grid Log Cabin Alone Ep 15, Tie Beams, Maple Sugar, Family Self Reliance
I install 4 of the most important logs on my cabin, the center tie beams and the headers over the front door and windows and the back windows. Our self reliance continues as my wife and daughter join me to make maple sugar, start seeds in the greenhouse, practice traditional archery and more.
