Beautiful cabin! When was it originally built?
Thank you, we like it.
That’s amazing! Life long dream to build my own cabin, hopefully will acquire land soon, I’m only 34 so I have some time. But I have found via a friend there is a lot more to it these days with zoning and planning, and inspectors! Looks like a great spot though!
Way to rub it in, plick! LOL...you have it made, sir.
I am assuming most of these cabins are going to be on septic. What happens when the system freezes? Heaters? Not used as much so leeching isn't a big issue? Make sure tanks are emptied enough so no worries? Sh!t outside?

Yes its on a Septic. I dont use the water or the toilet after Thanksgiving. Tank does not freeze solid. In the winter I just go on the snow and shovel it into the cleanout.I am assuming most of these cabins are going to be on septic. What happens when the system freezes? Heaters?

What's the final foundation going to be? Is there permafrost at your location? What you've done looks great.
the foundation is on helical piles driven down 17’ . there is definitely permafrost here. i’m also on a septic system with the tanks buried down 10’. We’ve been working on getting it dried in this year and finish it off next spring! Iv been hunting AK for 30 years and always planned on building up here.
Super! I assume you have community water and power to your land? Electricity/natural gas?
Looking for a place to squat, eel?? Are you from the Bay area by chance?
we do have electricity / fiber optic and are still on tank water until we drill a well in the future. water is available near by for now…
Log stair build was fun.
That is going to be sweet when its finished.
