Just a short note. If you're not familiar with Dick Proenneke's story, you should get that way. Proenneke was a retired mechanic and amateaur naturalist who built a tiny cabin in the Alaskan wilderness and then liked there, filming and writing his journals, for 30 years. Interesting stuff. His wiki info is one source, and his friend's film site is another. The National Park Service has more info as well.
Proenneke's cabin is now an open museum of sorts. If you can get to it, you're free to look around.
In a world where we think we need so much to live, it's nice to remember how little we really require.
