I’ve been gone a little over a week helping my sister establish beach head on her 216 acre land on the Yukon River. This is one of my back up bug out locations. It’s about as remote as you can get, 100 miles downstream from where the haul road bridge crosses the Yukon River.
This is the first glimpse of Yukon after 450 mile road trip.

The first thing was to make a trail from the beach about 200 feet up the bank to carry things.

Wife dug pit down to permafrost to keep food cold. We made a trip to near by creek with ice and filled a couple of buckets and put it in pit also but really unnecessary because ice stayed solid all week. It was nice to have ice in cold drinks.
