Not an old cabin, but built pretty much the same way.

Nice shot Charlie. It seems the old way of building is still in use today.

Thanks, JG.
As always in remote locations around the world, it's a lot more expensive to have someone else do your work for you.
In the far northern rural areas, most people are basically do-it-yourselfers (by necessity).
Building a cabin like this is mostly one of semi-skilled labor- lots of labor.
If the logs are straight (and northern spruce are) and the caulking is done well, most of the battle is already won.
Build a watertight slanted roof, put in a wood-burning stove, build an outhouse and you're in business.
Furnish the interior however you want.
Chop plenty of wood for 40 below zero winters.
