My guess is no. With the changes in TV (more shows - less TV viewer) it is way to expensive to film the way it was done here. The industry is moving more and more towards prearranged stories and ones done in a single setting like warehouses or studios to save time and money. That's my take on it.

Adequate internet is my only worry about moving up there since I have an e-commerce business. I grew up in a small mountain town called Paradise, Ca. (It just burned down last year) but have been in San Francisco since I was 18 (a kid wanted to experience the city) Now I’m 36 and want to move back to the mountains but to Alaska this time. I need to get back to the woods if you know what I mean. I want a garden, fruit orchard, and some chickens, etc. Live off the land as much as possible but still have running water, power, internet and septic. But I don’t wanna see neighbors after living in a city for so long I need a break from that! 😉 I don’t know if that even exists up there. I’ve been researching the Kenai Penn. Homer, Anchor Point. Not as harsh as your area! I don’t know if I’m that tough to live in the interior by myself yet haha. Just need to research more on the internet connections up there and then come visit a few time before I pick a spot. I watched a NatGeo doc on the Collins twins trapper girls. They are tough!

At fish camp I got HughesNet and once you get it uploading it's only counting the download MB - upload is free. It takes about 12 to 24 hrs to upload a 1 GB video. In the village of Tanana where I am in winter it's a microwave into town and cable to the houses and a 1 GB video takes about 3 to 6 hrs. and we get 40 GB a month. You are correct to be thinking more south than here if you want to live off gardens more. Good luck.

In the 1970's when I came to Alaska many had no freezers so dried fish was dried well and hung high bundled in burlap in the smokehouses or caches away from animals for the winter months. Nowadays most put them in freezers when dried or semi dried as it preserves that fresh "succulent" taste better. Our winters hardly ever see above freezing temps though. Like your new channel

Just to be real clear - This answer is for dried dog food and I have another video on the channel on how to cut them. It's a lot different than how the people food is handled. We never put dog food in the freezer. It hangs where it was hung right after being cut to dry until it is thoroughly dried and then it's stored like that all winter. Sometimes it is bunched up some to save space on the outside dog racks. It is never put in a smokehouse ever. Smokehouses here are for people food. Hope this clears things up.

Send that lin k if you still got it. The vets up here have described one issue with raw salmon like this. There are enzymes in raw fish thatdestroy the vitamin B in a dogs system. Repaeted feeding of raw fish will eventually kill the dog. Coking or better rotting somewhat destoys that enzyme. Supposidly greenland huskies have evolved the ability to digest raw fish okay. Wolves that walk the beaches up here are eating the most rotten salmon they can find instead of a freshly washed up spawned out salmon.
