  Hey Thomas, thanks for this awesome footage! What I love about your video is that it doesn't only feature scenery and music. I deeply appreciate your narration, as it gives insight into multiple aspects of the trip - background info, landmarks, aspects pertinent to planning and actually carrying out such an expedition. Two questions: 1) How deep is the MIssouri River in these parts? 2) Did you find that buffalo skull by chance or has it become some kind of waypoint on the journey? If the Buffalo Commons is to be realized and the American Prairie Preserve continues to flourish, chances are you may truly see a few bison along the river next time you head out! :)

  You should plant the types of rootwd and also floating water plants in it that filter pond water.

  How do you carry your water? How much water do you carry in your canoe? The recommended water is 1 gal/day. For the 2 of you, 17 days on the water means 34 gallons of water.

  We have so many creative and ingenious people in our country who have solutions to make our lives better and extract us from the slavery of mortgages and banks, but building regulations are often designed by big industries to protect their monopolies and profits, rather than for the safety of home buyers. I would totally feel safe in one of these structures. Thank you for sharing.

  True, true. But nobody has to be stuck in the Machine. It is actually quite easy to walk away from the 9 to 5 job and mortgage, as many of my students at Green University have learned. Here's a tour of my home in Montana you might also enjoy: kzread.info/dash/bejne/g4t_ssusqdreprw.html

  Can you make tip-ups using aircrete? How thick are the walls of the buildings you showed?

• 
  @thomasjelpelАй бұрын

  I believe those walls were about eight inches thick (I'm guessing). You should be able to make tilt-up panels if you pour a 1/4" layer of sand-cement mortar, lay the fiberglass mesh into it, cover that with a thin layer of mortar, then pour the aircrete, let that set for a few hours or overnight, then apply the sand/cement layer and fiberglass mesh again to make a complete sandwich. Then let it cure for 30 days before attempting to move it. :) Here's a tour of my house in Montana you might also enjoy: kzread.info/dash/bejne/g4t_ssusqdreprw.html

  For the interior insulation where the rebar/concrete meets it would you want to put weather wrap?

• 
  @thomasjelpelАй бұрын

  Ideally there should be no wood against the concrete, although it isn't much of an issue in the arid West. The beadboard insulation can contact the mortar directly. Here is a full tour of my house you might also enjoy: kzread.info/dash/bejne/g4t_ssusqdreprw.html

• 
  @joancandalino8742Ай бұрын

  Have you considered fibre mesh fibers added to the aircrete? Would that improve the strength?

• 
  @thomasjelpelАй бұрын

  I was wondering about that too, but strength is largely irrelevant for insulation, and the surface bonding provides the strength where needed. Here is a tour of my home in Montana you might also enjoy: kzread.info/dash/bejne/g4t_ssusqdreprw.html

  @ANXIETORАй бұрын

  I had never heard of aircrete, so this was really interesting. I wonder how this would hold up in a more humid locale like my state of Ohio. Plus, I’ve never seen solar panels used as porch roofing. That makes perfect sense. Good video.

  The most important part of this design may not have been mentioned. It takes 2 hours+ for everything to get hot, but it will radiate "back" the heat for up to 12 hours. 8 to 10 hours of nice heat... with no fire and no logs needed.

  We are two spirits of a similar mold. I was first introduced the the 'Breaks' in 1968. I paddled a group of scouts down from Fort Benton to the Fred Robson Bridge in 2008, Returned and soloed the Marias from the dam to the Missouri, then on down to the bridge again. The Breaks are precious. My long trip was 2016 I did a full 'Powell' plus a bit. Launched in Green River, WY and hauled out Lake Havasu City, AZ, 3 months. I have been on the Green 7 separate times,, the Colorado 6 times, many other rivers as well. I LIKED the beginning, pre dawn launch. That IS the way to do western rivers. Always still in the morning, always an upstream wind in the afternoon. One tidbit I can offer you,, The deer and elk alongside the river are a huge problem, they and the beavers eat all the new poplar shoots. Along western rivers,, there are nearly only old poplars. The invasive species of Russian olive and tamarisk have taken over,, because... there are no wolves to chase and dine on the deer , and the beavers eating the new growth of poplar. The reintroduction of wolves in Yellowstone has shown this. The high erosion dirt banks along the Missouri? Are a direct result of the lack of wolves.
