Being alone is wonderful, for about 14 days, unless you are completing a project to keep yourself busy. Filming is a bit of a project, but building a cabin or similar is what really keeps one too busy to bet bored. A dog alone is not sufficient, for most people...

You're never alone...your always with yourself.

I believe your journey, called living, is on the right track. I spent a lot of time in from the early 1960's to the mid 1970's experiencing the wonders of nature. Sometimes, it was with nothing more than a packing blanket, a coffee pot, a military mess kit, a pocket knife, matches, a hunting knife and a compass, sometimes with more, sometimes with just the bare necessities. This included California, Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Nevada and Colorado for the most part. I did take my own family to experience some of the same, but outfitted much better for the kids sake, in the early eighties to late nineties. I learned to start a fire without matches or lighters, and for most wildlife, to keep a fire going all night for protection when camping (no tent). Disposal of food scraps and such would be buying it several meters for the campsite. I've had encounters with wildlife, such as rattlesnakes, black bears, brown bears including one grizzly up north, water snakes, coyotes, wolves, pumas (ie: mountain lions or cougars), a very angry California Spotted Owl that actually attacked me, and run ins with bats in Arizona. I'm gonna be 70 in a couple months Wish smart phones were around back in the day because I could have had videos that would probably have gone viral. I could write about this forever, but of course I won't. I will simply say that to see the coastal areas, especially where the forests meet the seas, the sequoias towering so high it's almost unbelievable; the desert in the middle of the night allowing you to see the milky way and stars that seem so close you feel like you can almost reach out and touch them, canyons, waterfalls, caves, various types of forests, plains and geography...it all makes me realize that we are insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but at the same time just how much we are a part of it all. We, as humans for the most part seem to believe ourselves to be separate from nature, but when reality hits, it's awesome to realize that we are very much a part of nature. Oh, I should clarify that the owl that attacked me was likely protecting a nest. When I decided to circumvent the direction I wanted to go, the attacks stopped.

Living as a nomad in the pacific northwest. Every year I go off by myself for 3 months. I don't look at it like disconnecting as much as reconnecting with mother nature and the absolute beauty of nature. Anyway sweet little cabin. And you and your pup have a great wonderful weekend and the best of life to you both. Peace out

Bravo Eva. I just sailed around the world, mostly by myself. There is a big difference between being alone and being lonely. "Hold Fast."

You can find wilderness all over the states if you know where to look. This is just beautiful

Beautiful as always Eva... thank you for allowing us to 'tag along' on these journeys with you. Your trips to the simple places like represented in this episode warm my heart and I appreciate you helping remind me/us what fuels the soul... nature and sometimes a dose of solitude is needed to calibrate everything. Safe travels wherever you're off to next with Vilk!

Glad that you two are well. Vilk has turned into the most beautiful companion and best friend, you two were meant to be. David xx

Sometimes something ugly to look at brings out the beauty of what we don't see, the Forest.

Their is nothing like woods , remoteness ,alone time to center thr spirit ...

Vilk needs to carry his stuff. He's dutiful as are most shepherds and would love having that responciblility.

I could literally spend the rest of my life in a small cabin up in the mountains. I've been all over the Idaho mountains & basically fell in love with the peacefulness & solitude. I have camped for months just me & my dogs. Fishing & exploring

I have no interest in living a solitude life but I watched this video because I grew up in Montana. No better state than Montana if you love the outdoors. I do love going into the mountains for times of solitude. I used to love to just take my 22 long rifle and some snacks and water and head into the mountains to explore and see wildlife. Never boring.

singing, talking loud, playing music from your truck is 100% a good trick. you dont even now that you are scarring off all sorts of critters but they hear you

I've lived in a lot of places, including the interior of Alaska. One of my biggest regrets is not traveling and exploring more of the places I've been, from Egypt to Alaska. I did get out and enjoy being out, but not as much as I could and should have. Why I'm SW Texas near the border is another story, a bit of a love story in fact. But, that's another tale. I very much enjoy your approach to these adventures and the personality that shines through. No ego, no arrogance, no I'm the star. It's more of someone sharing discovery and adventure with friends. A few weeks ago I traded up to a 2023 Jeep Gladiator Sport. Upgraded tires and a few things. Hopefully, I'll get some adventuring in with a few close friends. Rigs need a name. I've always been a variation of Wolf. My road name when motorcycling was Iron Wolf. Among close associates (the only kind I really care about) I'm simply called Wolf. All that is leading to the naming of my Jeep. Jeep and I decided that in honor of you and Vilk and your adventures, as well as my long history of being a wolf, Vilk shall be its name. Wolf and Vilk. Let's see what we can get into. It won't be anything as remote and adventurous as you two, but we will be getting back to being out there again. So, if you are ever in the Val Verde/Kinney/Uvalde country area of Texas, give us a shout and we would love to share a meal.

Love that you're quoting Thoreau! One of my favorite quotes of his likely will resonate for you, Eva- it's perfect for these beautiful moments in the wilderness: 'But alone in distant woods or fields even in a bleak-- and to most cheerless day like this-- when a villager would be thinking of his inn-- I come to myself-- I once more feel myself grandly related-- and that cold and solitude are friends of mine-- I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by church going and prayer-- I come to my solitary woodland walk as the homesick go home-- I thus dispose of the superfluous, and see things as they are, grand and beautiful-- I have told many that I walk everyday about half the day light-- but I think they do not believe it. I wish to get the Concord--the Massachusetts-- the America out of my head and be sane a part of everyday. I wish to forget a considerable part of every day--all mean--narrow--trivial men and therefore I come out to these solitudes where the problem of existence is simplified. I get away a mile or two from the town--into the stillness and solitude of nature--with rocks--trees--weeds--snow--about me--I enter some glade in the woods alone perchance-- where a few weeds and dry leaves lift themselves above the surface of the snow--and it is as if I had come to an open window-- I see out and around myself... This stillness--solitude, wildness of nature-- is a kind of thoroughwort or boneset to my intellect--This is what I go out to seek-- It is as if I always met in those places some grand, serene, immortal-- infinitely encouraging though invisible companion-- and walked with him.' Henry Thoreau

Thoreau's cabin was only an hour or two walk from town and home cooking but he also explored the Maine woods with his Indian guide Joe. He went far enough to "suck all the marrow" and fill volumes with an inspiring transcendent view of the wild however relative. And he had 3 chairs in his cabin. One for solitude, two for company and three for society. Simplicity.

Awesome video as always Eva zu Beck and Vilk. That was a awesome place.

I find it interesting that you seek out such an accommodation when I remember all those years I lived in the Colorado Rockies how one of my GFs raised her son in one of those little uninsulated cabins without plumbing, and I thought her crazy. It was so hard - not to mention, cold - with her having to every day chop wood for the fire and go out in all sorts of increment weather just to use the privvy. Mountain living is beautifully peaceful, but I prefer insulation and central heating. Our heating system in the Netherlands is water-based. And I like how the Scandinavians have indoor saunas and heat their floors connected to the water-based system as well, which one can do sustainably while still having comfort snd respect for one's surroundings.

So glad you are back. Truly enjoy your adventures . Be safe and keep the dream going Eva. ☮️❤️ Chris and Deb

I have electricity but I can walk a hundred yards and then another few miles and not see anybody. And after a 6-mile drive, I can walk for over a hundred miles, rarely seeing a logging road until I get to the Bitterroot Valley in Montana. Yes, Dick was one of a kind.

@official-EvazuBeck- Is this really you? Some people are afraid of guns and wild animals. I'm afraid of computers and the internet. I did not grow up with them. I touch the wrong thing and everything goes away. I just got a flip phone two months ago. I can call but am still not sure how to receive a call. I have to drive a mile to get reception. There are about 2 places in this country that don't get good cell reception. I am in one of them. Good internet, though. Today I have been watching those many real estate videos of North Idaho. Too cold, a little radical for me, and too commercialized for me. I like places a little closer say to National Forest like where you were at Fox Creek, in Galatin NF. I went online and researched. Our problem, you and me, is that I am internet illiterate, and I respect both our privacies. Having a college degree from CWSU doesn't mean I know about computers and internet because that was not available in the 60's. I about gave you up but yesterday I was recalling that I have a good friend on the coast who I think is internet literate and I e-mail her fairly often, she and hubby currently living in the place where I grew up. Could she be a go-between of some sort? You're the internet savvy gal so you need to figure this out. If you are really Eva, you will want to find me. I have a daughter and her family in Eastern Idaho, but since she pretty much shunned me because I basically apostatized from her fundamental Christian belief, she is not in the picture. I'm as leery as you are about this, because I'm not eve sure you are really Eva. Do your research and try to find me, I guess. I have talked to people in person but I can see them.

This was absolutely so peaceful to watch, and it made me think how stuck I've been this year at home. Definitely need to get out there and explore more and just get away from all this "social" media and just enjoy nature again. Thank you for sharing Eva!

In all respect, we are never alone, life is all around us in all shapes and sizes. And when we have a companion such as a dog or cat that keeps us from feeling alone, meaning without, would probably feel much different going into solitude or without a companion.... Enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing 🙌💛🙌

My cabin in Sweden is much bigger, with electricity and cell service, but for the rest very similar to this cute cabin situation. Outhouse, no running water and surrounded by miles of forest. Still, I have to counsciously choose to disconnect my phone and reconnect with nature on a deeper level from time to time since the world can easily sneak in and claim my attention. My need for solitude is usually greater than that for human company and I can be happy for quite some time with my own thoughts and just following my flow, spending time with my dog and two cats.

I love the minimalist life. Nature and peace.

There is some indication that though Thoreau was living in nature, he wasnt far from the neighborhood where he grew up and he could walk there if he felt the need for food or companionship. Congrats to you for going out into the wild. Im curious about Montana. It looks lovely and the solitude sounds amazing. Loved the Polish too, thanks for that.

Some of my best life memories have been formed when I was by myself at our farm, our lake cabin or in a forest campsite. I felt true freedom and ultimate relaxation.

by Montana standards that was a very nice outhouse. and the outhouse counts as the meditation cabin in Montana as well. :)

I am really enjoying this. The scenery is similar to where I live which is Idaho on the western slopes of the Bitterroot Range that borders Montana. In my younger days, in my 50's and 60's, I would practice yodeling as I walked. There were certain places along a river where tall green bushes grew and where I could see bear sign. I would sing and yodel a lot (I sent away for a yodeling tape.) and when I got to drier areas, I would just remain alert. There are rattlesnakes in both these states even way back in the wilderness. I worried more about snakes than bears. I hiked some with the boy scouts and once or twice with wife and daughter, but most of time, I was like you--alone. My dog was part hound and he liked chasing tree squirrels and I would lose him too easy so I just went alone. Of my many years hiking in north central Idaho's back country, I never saw a bear or a wolf or a cougar or a deer. I saw one bull elk but that was only a couple miles from civilization. And I saw one rattlesnake, on a gravelly river beach where my daughter and I were camping. But where I now live, my only company is a family of 2 does, two fawns and 2-3 bucks that I talk to every day. In my younger years, I shot deer for food, but now I eat very little meat, and the deer are like pets. People wonder how I cannot be lonely after my wife died, but I don't think they realize how living in a region where I am on the border of wild country, has so much to offer. I have watched most of your videos but this one is my favorite so far; I guess because I can relate to it so well. You have that wunderlust way about you for new adventures. I have it but not as much as you. And when you get older like me, you will be so glad that you did all that. So many people can only watch the adventures of others and dream. I, too, have been to Alaska, not to Kodiak, but I've been close. One adventure I've had and I hope you can also, is taking a boat under 50-feet long from Seattle to Seward, Alaska through the Alaska and Canadian Inside Passage. It may not be as exciting as it was for me in the early sixties, due more civilization, but there will still be many adventures for a gal like you.

@@appleoranges9772 My lifestyle is just something I enjoy. Where I live, there are people off the grid in places where you don't go unless you are invited or so said the county assessor. In my younger years working on a boat, I learned of the life of a "creek watchman", a college student hired by Alaska Dept of Fish and Game to live in a small cabin for 3 months watching for fishing boats who might fish inside the markers as schools of salmon swam up the stream. I have heard over the marine radio, fishermen talking to each other about how they would have to kill the watchman so they could make an extra $1000 for each crew member. The creek watchman had a rifle and a radio and that was all. And Southeast Alaska in the 60's was like living in the old west compared to now. That was real living in the wild. I know because our boat's crew was tempted to do the same thing. And living on a 44-foot long boat for part of a summer with 4 other people, with no cell phones or landline when it would rain steady for 3 days (rainfall up to 200 inches a year)--that's also a bit like living in a cabin. My daughter and I, when she was 16, spent three days in a forest fire lookout tower at 5700 feet in Washington's north Cascade Range. We had to walk an eighth of a mile through bear country to get water from a spring. I remember asking her should I take my handgun with us to get water, "Yeah, dad," she said. I did that another time at the same tower and carrying as much on our pack as Eva did for a mile up a very steep trail. I went with another hiker and we stayed three days working to fix up the outside when we looked down a thousand feet. Scary but we were in our thirties. I couldn't do that now. But backpacking will give one an idea as to what living in the back country is like. Nothing unusual. Lots of people do the same thing and to places a lot rougher. I just currently live in an area where I would have to walk far, if I were younger, to find places to enjoy the wild. I live 20 gravel road miles from a Wilderness area, near where my wife and I rented a forest fire lookout tower for a night. That was easy because I could drive right to it and we had a propane stove and two single beds, but had to walk for water and there was no communication.

@innedbyClearValueTax I Iooked online trying to figure things out but I don't understand what apps are and what messaging means. I have learned that messaging is private but??? And the old people on my rural area hill are no more computer/internet savvy than I am. My message is really to your advantage, not mine. Thanks for your videos, Eva. I will keep watching them.

I grew up in the mountains and lakes region of the State of New Hampshire. Now I am 69 years old and no matter where I go my heart and mind still love mountains and quiet places. One point: the trip from the cabin to the outhouse in the dead of Winter with mounds of snow would not be so much fun, along with a frozen bottom. Great show. Made me homesick. Happy Trails

Funny, my mom is 69 years old and from Manchester, and they frequently went to the Adirondacks and White mountains when they were kids. She has regaled me with many tales and I've been able to experience the area myself, now in every (conventional) season except spring (thankfully skipped mud and stick season)

When i walk alone in parks, people ( in my country) stare at me like i am weird. Whats wrong with being alone? I love it. Solitude and silence is healing.

Your are one brave woman Eva! I hope you and Vilk will always be safe in all your journey.

I believe this is most exciting I've got in recent times watching someone live in solitude. This is definitely something I want to experience in my life for sure. Eva, you definitely made one of the best memories ❤

What a life you live. You are so beautiful on the inside and out. I love your enthusiasm for the life you live. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us all. God bless you Eva

You are one of a kind zu Beck. I can see why you have 1.7M Subs. Really well done...

As a 30 yr old single mother to a 5 yr old, ive also realized i need another human to share happy times with. Im single for 4 yrs and the marriage was barely a relationship. Ive become a very interesting person with lots of hobbies and deep thoughts because of how much time i spend by myself. But ive also began realizing how lonely i am. How i have no one asking me how my day was. No one to go out with on weekends when its family time for everyone else. I need that in my life even if im totally ok being with myself. But sometimes its too much alone time if you know what i mean. I want to show someone all my happy places.....and i want to be someones happy place. Youre an inspiration Eva!

Great video. Lucky dog. He was in his element. Beautiful country. Great song picks. Provocative and moving.

Some of the most beautiful pictures are of you and Zilk together and seeing how happy you both are!!! I have 5 dogs and love them all to death and they rarely ever leave my side!!! Beautiful scenery also

Girl , You are Living One heck of a life. I have been following you, of and on, for i knew one day you will make it to such a remote mountain hike and live in 'solitude' with the 'tonic of wildness'. Salute to you, and your spirit.

Oh man I’m drooling over how remote and peaceful that spot looks! Thanks for taking us there!

laughing at the follies with your backpack. So familiar, thanks for sharing that part too! Fun to watch Vilk enjoy the summer snow, that's one of my pups favorite things too. Hyalite is a beautiful area.

Yes ... your right happiness is best when shared ... experience is best when reflected in the heart of a loved one ... It describes a human journey we are all on ...

Foresty Forest is the best backcountry wilderness channel on KZread.. Guy does crazy mountaineering then cooks a gourmet meal afterwards

I always look out to see your video's, so nice to see Vilk again, i missed him last time, when u are so used to see the two of you, it feels immediately if someone is missing, since he became " part of the family" he had a place in my heart...🧡🧡🧡 greetings from the Netherlands

The last time I did something like this I found children's handprints all over my car. I was in Montana roughly 20 miles from any homes, and it had happened in the middle of the night. 10/10 experience. I highly recommend. Smiles for the rest of the trip.

Eva, have you ever thought about leasing a lookout tower? There are some in many states and you can drive to some and some you have to walk from a few to several miles. Each "cabin" on either wood or steel legs, usually has a propane stove and a single bed. Might have to walk to a nearby spring for water. Fantastic views. I took my wife to one, 20 miles from our home in Idaho and we leased one for a night and she loved it. No civilization for miles. But I had a friend in Washington who had a deal with the Forest Service where he could stay whenever he wanted as long as he kept it up and I helped him somewhat with that, but that was a long walk up many switchbacks, but memorable. You can learn about such lookouts at Forest Fire Lookout Assn. Just a thought.

My three dogs and I spent two years living in a tent in the national forests of the southern Appalachian Mountains. It is an experience that most people should have, but I was very glad to get in a cabin with electricity, internet, plumbing and a roof over my head, when the next winter was about to roar in.

My family attempted to go off grid in southwestern Virginia - we had homesteading in our hearts. Home schooled 5 children, raise 90% of our food, canned, worked with work horses. After 15 years we were exhausted. Wouldn't trade those years for anything ... BUT ... here's a key ... Before we moved from civilization I felt led to pray for Amish neighbors to help and train us. God was faithful, Amish settlement was only 40 minutes away. Must be trained for such a life. A very high level of experience and knowledge is CRITICAL! CAN'T read a self-help book in place of "professionals".

@@peter25681 As an old widower, I live on a small piece of land, 11 acres, but since some of it is steep, some in a canyon, some on the flats, it seems like more than that. I just returned from spreading gravel with a flat-blade shovel on one of the many dirt roads I have built over a 30-year span. I like to hike on trails so I have built a trail system and some of my roads connect some of them, so I make a gravel trail on the dirt roads to get to the main trails. In my location in Idaho, there is an abundance of clay soil and rain really does a number on roads. Trails don't need much maintenance until a tree falls on it. I learned to love trails from the time I spent backpacking to lookout towers in Washington's North Cascade Range. To build a trail, regardless of the slope, I use a Pulaski tool which is what wild-land fire fighters used to use, a rake, a hoe and a shovel. I did most of the trail building when I was younger. Several years ago, I and another Boy Scout leader built a scout cabin near the main spring and creek area. We used this for summer and winter camping and the boys enjoyed paddling canoes on the damned up part of the creek. We leaders both got old and the other died so I gave up trying to get people to take down the cabin so I guess it will be there until I die. When my family first moved here we stocked one spring-filled pond with trout. People are moving in to this area but I still have places where I feel like being in a wilderness. To my east is a cattle rancher with 120 acres who I have only seen 3 times and I corner on 300 acres, I've only seen a four-wheeler on once, and those two parcels join 900 acres, and I have built several trails on those lands, so it's still like living in the wilds. I think Eva enjoys being alone with just her dog and it is a joy when you can sit, as I do, under my free-standing canopy under tall pine and red and white fir trees, especially in the spring, but I can still see lots of bracken fern. I love to just sit and look at trees or go my creek and watch it run. People who move here from places like California cities don't seem to like living in the trees. They just want to put their fancy expensive house on a hill in the open. I only cut enough trees around my home, that I don't worry too much about a strong wind or fire. Few people I have known would like to live as do but I wouldn't trade this life for any amount of moving. I heat with wood that I harvest on my land, and I have a roof-water collection system that I built, and I still can't see much civilization. And I have had very few visitors over those 30 years. I lived a similar life when I and my parents lived on an island. Hard life but worth it. I do have electricity, but except for needing a blood thinner, if the grid ever went down, I would have no problems.

Great film Eva. Great to see your puppies back👍❤️

@official--EvazuBeck That sounds like a good idea. Through what medium of communication do you think is best?

I did it for six months without seeing anyone else besides my dog and two horses. It was a job too however, I rode the fence line, fixed the fence when leaning or broken and counted and moved cattle. I loved it and I didn’t really miss being around or talking to anyone, besides in letters. I was in a cabin a bit larger than that one with a 4 stall barn and a corral, no electric or running water, but there was a lake and stream.

I'm always amazed at how high your drone can fly.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience! As my current situation doesn't allow me to be in forests right now, thanks to you I could feel enaugh the atmosphere of this forest that some tears came out 🥹.. Thank you for your wonderful work and personality ❤️✨
