Building a Tiny Off-Grid Cabin: 3-Year Time-Lapse (12x20 Mountain Cabin)

Описание: Join us on an incredible journey as we construct a cozy off-grid cabin nestled in the breathtaking mountains of the Pacific Northwest! This time-lapse captures every step of the process—from digging the foundation, framing the walls, hand-building rafters, adding a loft, insulating, siding, installing a metal roof, sheetrocking, and adding a cedar wraparound deck. Watch the transformation unfold against a stunning backdrop of towering pines and serene wilderness.

🌲 Why Off-Grid?
We intentionally built this cabin in an area that's far enough away from civilization that basic utilities simply are not available. It allows us to embrace the self-reliant approach and enjoy unencumbered natural beauty.
