Installing a Metal Roof on an Off Grid Log Cabin Alone | Alaska Update

#logcabin #offgrid #metalroof
Settling back home from my log cabin tour and wildlife photography trip to Alaska, my first project is to install a new metal roof on the side porch and west side of my off grid log cabin in the Canadian wilderness, unfortunately replacing the shou sugi ban roof system in the process. Working alone has its challenges, especially when installing ice and water shield to the roof boards and handling large sheets of metal roofing as I carry them down the trail to the cabin and then lift them into place on the wood roof.
Cali is happy to see me return home from my trip and immediately gets back to her fetching duties, in the forest as well as out on the lake.
