I'm new, so excuss me if this has been discussed to death. The most impressive wilderness living documentary DVD I've ever seen is "Alone In the Wilderness" It's available from PBS and is a great inspiration for everyone (especially for us old farts)

I agree, Dogbert. It is an amazing story. The book has some additional detail that's worthwhile as well.

Never seen it, will it be showing on the TV?

Is that the guy who went to live in Alaska? I have seen it a while ago and loved it. You could do that an hour and a half drive from where I live now though.

There is about a 9 min clip of it on youtube. I have never heard of this doc so i did a google search of it.

Very interesting. Im gonna try and find this on the web if not ill just buy the dvd.

I would love to build a log cabin like that.

Hi Unsub,

Yup, he was in his fifties when he moved to the Alaska wilderness. An amazingly capable man.
