This has rapidly become one of my favorite Youtube channels to watch...
"Join me in this video as I take a 12 mile walk through the north woods enjoying a beautiful fall day and looking for a ruffed grouse aka Partridge. My favorite time of year and there's no where I'd rather be. Plenty of fresh air and solitude."
One of the things that attracts me to the off-grid life style is how integrated conservation has to be in -- you have to think a lot about what you consume in energy and the waste you generate.

"Is there anybody left to walk a muddy mile,
Is courage a word that's only said,
Is it true them dusty days are days that never really were,
But are only tales in books to be read?"
