Alaska, Alaska life, backpacking, fishing, rafting, hiking. This channel is for AKWild1. The videos capture my love of the outdoors in general, and my life in Alaska in particular. I live in a cabin I partially built on the edge of the largest national park in the country, Wrangell-St. Elias. Although I still have many modern conveniences, I still rely on subsistence hunting, fishing, and gathering. I enjoy backpacking, rafting, hiking, fat biking, fishing, hunting, photography, videography, woodworking, and pursuing a self-reliant lifestyle.

Recently my wife and I hiked 2005 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, so you'll see clips of our experience as well as a full documentary. I firmly believe in the rigorous outdoor lifestyle, simple living close to the Earth, and critical thinking. I believe many of our modern ailments and afflictions could be solved with healthy outdoor activity. The mountains are my medicine. Thank you for, hopefully, subscribing to my channel. All the best.
