Heaven that, iv always dreamed of being somewhere like that am literally starting from scratch, clearing rides putting in tracks an everythjng before you even think about a cabin, just being in woods grafting an no reason to leave haha 

A lot of those plots up there are often sold as hunting areas,moose and bear populations are mentioned in the adverts,surrounded by crown land you have no neighbours for hundreds of miles.

Do a hunters course,send your certificate and application to RCMP,they do a background check and you get your licence in the post mate,no land permission needed as theres 937,000 square kilometers of crown land in Ontario alone,87% of the province is public use.

My mates favourite words "if it's brown it's going down "  

So they are being sold as hunting plots ? Probably set up big canvas square tent as digs for the season until you able to make something,some of these plots you need to fly in and out ?

Some fly in,boat,Argo even saw one that advises building supplies can be taken in on the seasonal ice road,hunting camps are a selling point for some,fishing camps etc.

I have a grandchild that will be born in the states next year,I am over here till next year,I have no interest in going genuine off grid,it’s too austere at this stage for me,I am retired and have the freedom I enjoy,maybe if I was younger then yes I was that sort,but life for me personally nowadays isn’t about sitting somewhere till I am in my box,I like being on the move,a rolling stone gathers no moss.
