Welcome to our transforming sled/cabin project! Spending a winter weekend in the woods of Alaska doesn't have to be frigid. We took our cabin with us!
This pop-up camper sled is a prototype. We are working on a concept and improving it each week. This video documents our first overnight, trial. There will be more videos to come as we test different designs and materials.
We wish you all the magic in the forest!
What a lucky and blessed young man to have these experiences with his Grandfather. He will never forget these times and he will learn lessons that will last him a lifetime!
There are so precious our children, we were really blessed with them
Not only that but when he’s grown with a family of his own this sled/cabin will probably still be around as will this video. He’ll be able to show his children how he built this with his grampa.
This is how master builders are made. Not slouching in chairs in school. What an important apprenticeship to have. The kid is a better than 99% of the helpers out there. Rare to see someone enthusiastic and not look at their phone.
the grandfather is also blessed with a great grandson like him who enjoys this kind of activities. he's a rare breed. my grandfather used to asked me to go somewhere with him, but i refused cz i prefer hanging out with my friends, rather than with an old man like him. now im an adult and full of regrets 😢
Look at the kid eyes, he is admiring his Grandfather
He's lucky to have a grandpa like you ❤
Yes he is.
And the other way around, too 😎👍
The boy looks admired and inspired by his Granddad!
@@ihorpavlovych5236these are wonderful skills that this child is learning from his grandfather! Love what your making!
What a terrific learning experience for a young boy. He will never forget that time with his grandfather. Well done guys.
Lucky young man. If only every young boy had this kind of guidance.
Welcome back Gale. Wishing you and your bride a blessed new year. It’s great seeing you and your grandson working together on another project. Peace brother
Thank you. It is good to hear from you my friend.
@@ThisIsMyAlaska Have you considered licensing your sled camper design to anyone? I don’t camp anymore, our last time was during Hurricane Gilbert and my wife has never forgiven me... I would think they REI, or perhaps a snow mobile company would be interested. I see great potential in your design and construction. Wishing you and your grandson many happy opportunities together. Peace brother
Someday when that young man isn’t so young anymore and things are tough he’ll have those memories of his grandpa to get him through. There is no greater gift than warm memories.
Thanks, Gale, for stepping back into our lives and sharing such a wonderful adventure with your grandson. Always love seeing your videos. Happy New Year!!
Thank you Carol. You make us feel so welcome! Peace to you dear friend
I was thinking, while watching this, if all grandpas were like you there would be so many happy, wise grandchildren.
You can see the boy's confidence grow as he helps on the project. He's also learning how to bring imagination to life. It's wonderful to see
I never got the chance to know either of my Grandfathers. He is such a lucky little guy - and you are so talented.
Hi from Montreal, same thing for me, came to Canada from italy when I was 2 so did not get the chance to know my grandparents, it's a shame, take care from jim and Louise
It's amazing what you are teaching your grandson! He will treasure those learning times with his grandpa forever, I'm sure! Now, you'll have to patent that sled invention of yours and wait for the orders to start pouring in! It won't be much of a wait I'm sure!! Much luck and success!!
There aren't many videos that can hold my attention for 23 minutes, but this one did. What a lucky boy to have such a patient and skilled grandfather to learn from.
That is a great compliment and I thank you.
So happy to see the two of you working together and posting again ! I have missed you ! Welcome Back !
Thank you. We had so much fun with this project
My wife and I were just talking about how much we missed seeing your videos! Thank you for sharing your project. We love your videos and the good natured dynamic of you and your family. One of the best channels out there.
Thank you friend. It is always a pleasure to hear from you!
One of the very best!
Awesome video with the grandson!
How lovely to see the interaction between grandparent and the lad. Invaluable learning and memories for both. ❤
There's something quite touching seeing you both together ! And the shelter looks awesome !
these experiences are something everybody should have access to. It makes me sad when i see people underestimate what they're truly capable of. But on the flip side it makes me happy to see people develop those skills and experiences, and to realize what they're capable of. experiences like this might seem simple and rather trivial. But it's more about what it fundamentally teaches people as they develop in life. We're capable of doing anything that we can invest the time to learn. It's that simple. Especially in a modern world where everything is so interconnected, and people are only valued by what they can produce for society, rather than their own good. Which can in turn benefit society. I hope to do the same thing, not with children, but with people in general. If i can do something, practically anybody else can. It's a matter of learning.
Can’t wait to see the thing of beauty that the two of you create❤❤your little guy is not so little anymore.
THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST VIDEO ON KZhead...
This was so cool to watch. Making great memories with your grandson how awesome. Love the build.
I love how you involved your Grandson in the whole process the things you are teaching him are priceless love the innovative process thanks for sharing
할아버지께서 손자에게 너무 멋진 추억을 만들어 주셨네요. 아마도 평생 아름다운 기억으로 남을것 같아요.
That was worth the wait gentlemen! Two master builders in a truly unique mobile home, just add imagination!! Always great to see you videos!!!!!
Thanks for the new video I and hoping you have a fantastic new year
This is all life that is meant to be. God bless you both. Best times make to best memory.
Woo hoo! Yay, good things come to us who wait. Awesome, thanks for doing and sharing.
Hello Daniele!!
watching you and your grandson work and learn together makes me think there might be some hope left for the world after all.
How blessed you are, this boy will NEVER forget his time with his Grandpa.
Happy to see you back again ,nice build with you and your Grandson
What a wonderful relationship between these two. You can tell they love each other. Creating lasting memories.
Good for your grandson, getting in there and doing his part. What an amazing experience for him and i dare say for grandad
Well there you are!!!!!!!Been a long wait. Another fun project, it was great. Dont wait soooo long.
So, so, so, once again this inseparable couple - grandfather and grandson! Well, it's wonderful to see you again! I speak on behalf of all your subscribers: - Dear Gale, we miss you very much, we miss your releases and we are all interested in how your construction projects are progressing there. It's wonderful to have you back!!
Good morning my dear friend. We have missed you (and all of our KZhead family) tremendously. We think of you often. With any luck, we will post more videos soon and continue our friendship(s). Peace from us to you
I loved this video. I am 75 years old and I still wish I had someone to do things like this when I was young.
That was fantastic. I smiled all the way through it! Thank you for sharing that with us.
The dynamic.duo back in action!. You two are a force of life and love. ! Thank you for sharing
You are welcome my friend
Young man learning to be a good man!! Thanks.
Beautiful video and beautiful memories. Takes me back to my Grandpa’s basement wood shop and projects we did together 60 years ago. Great times with a great man.
That is cool. You two build the most awesome things. It's good to see you and Drox building again.
That is by far the coolest camper I have ever seen. Great job!
What a fantastic video. Thanks so much for sharing. Awesome sled camper and spending time with Drox. You guys are always working on something.
Thank you. So glad you are a part of it!
You are a genius, you also have a perfect assistant, it is good to see you, happy 2024
I 'bout jumped out of my chair when I saw your notification!!! I miss you and your family so much. If only every child could have a caring, mentoring grandpa like you!!! Wonderful video. Much love to you, Tanya, Stella, and the entire family. ❤❤❤
Thank you Carole!!!
Genuinely enjoying the fact that the wee man is a proper good help too. That young man is going to be just fine 👌🏽 Love the content, from Scotland 🏴
Thank you! Hello to Scotland!
@@ThisIsMyAlaska been really enjoying your videos mate, your work is unbelievable 👌🏽 hope all is well
Wow, this is beyond impressive, and he will cherish these memories for the rest of his life!
That is one awesome sled camper!! Great seeing you and your grandson back on here! He’s growing up so fast!!
What everyone else about grandpa and grandson - - PLUS that is a very COOL design. Looking forward to more videos,
WoW! Memories and skills to last a lifetime! Beautiful video!
Wow what a great memory for you and your grandson! Thank you for sharing.
You are welcome. Thank you
That boy is very usefull, he realy sees how he can help. A beautiful characteristic to have!
Yay, you’re back!
Gayle, you never cease to amaze me with your incredible creations. I love seeing you and your wonderful grandson building the IMPRESSIVE sled cabin. You two are so cool together. Much love and blessings to you both. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Thank you so much! It is so good to hear from you. Peace to you from Alaska
That was the coolest thing I have watched on KZhead in a long time! Love the way you spend time and teach that boy and the fun you have!
What a remarkable boy and a great-grandfather!
MISS YOUR VIDEOS. YOUR GRANDSON WILL HAVE ALL THESE MEMORIES OF EVERYTHING THAT YOU AND HIM HAVE DONE. YOU ARE A GREAT MAN FOR HELPING YOUR GRANDSON BUILD ALL THE THINGS YALL HAVE DONE TOGETHER.
So kind, thank you
Your grandson is a good worker. He should be proud,
Wow. So glad you are still having some great adventures with your grandson. I (and my family) love your videos. Thanks for sharing. We are blessed watching them.
You are most welcome Dr Mark
it's so wonderful to see another video from you, I love Drox's matching shirt and hat, adorable! 💞🙂
What an amazing project, and so beautifully constructed!
The smile that the grandfather gave his grandson, that is love and delight. I never had a father or grandparents, so it is beautiful to see how it is.
Oh how I have missed you all!!! So wonderful to see you all again and especially you and your sweet grandson working together! Thank you so much for sharing more of you talent, knowledge, and especially your beautiful family with us. I hope your entire family are doing well, happy, and still enjoying the amazing and beautiful Alaska. May God continue to Bless and Protect you all!
Thank you our dear friend! We have missed our weekly visits too. We talk about them often. Our big family is growing and doing well. We seem to have grandchildren coming out our ears these days. It is a busy (but short) season of our lives and we want to make the most of it. We will try to put more videos out soon though. Stay in touch and have a blessed and peaceful 2024. Much love from Alaska
@@ThisIsMyAlaska Congratulations on the growing family and more grandchildren. I just had another great-granddaughter 5 days before Christmas! As always, I am sending much love, prayers, and best wishes to you and your entire family!! Thank you for being such a blessing to me!!
I was very happy to see a new video from you. I've missed seeing you and your grandson working together and making lovely memories. Happy New Year 2024 from Penang, Malaysia.
The cabin is good but the relationship is the best!
I just discorevered your channel, saw a few videos ( how U build your log cabine, the fairy tale house for your grandson and the wedding place for your son). The professionalism how U build things is remarkable, but the true essence is how U teach your son,grandson is how to be a decent MAN with this honest hard work is the real thing SIR. No matter how this life ends for U, U can leave this life with a great smile on your face with a sentence " I made it!" MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Well done! Respect from the heart of Europe, Hungary. PS.: U have a wonderful and blessed family, hope U are proud of it, U earned it!
Thank you my friend. Much love to Hungary!
So very glad to see you back on KZhead. This video brought tears to my eyes and a smile. Reminded me of my departed husband and our grandson. Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome. You made my night. Peace to you from Alaska
This young man has found something more useful than video games. He will go far in this world.
Pretty much nothing more wonderful when opening KZhead than seeing that there is a new video from “This Is My Alaska” 😁 While you don’t try and compete with video quantity, you are head and shoulders above most with quality. So enjoyable to once again have an interesting video with no one talking at us. Thanks for believing that your audiance is intelligent enough to follow along, it is one thing that drew me to your channel originally. What a great project! Now your grandson can be like his Grandpa - the man with a tent and stove for every Alaska occasion - and he can be the boy with a unique camper for every occasion. He has the treehouse and now the sled, pretty impressive 👊 Thanks for sharing with us, it is appreciated! Enjoy your family and Alaska 😎
Thank you Steve! Good morning from Alaska. I really appreciate your comments. They mean a lot to me. I always hope my viewers can enjoy the sights and sounds of Alaska through my videos, but your feedback is meaningful. Thank you. Peace to you my friend
That is so cool, that a Grandfather would teach his grandson a trade. My dad would show my two sons some things about carpentry. And they both loved working with Grampa
I LOVE THIS!!! Not only a great design, but precious memories and skills for your grandson!❤❤❤❤❤
Isn’t being a grandparent the best thing ever and sir you are doing that boy a great service teaching him these skills
100% agree!
This is amazing!! What a fun project! My dad built our first snowmobile sled about 50 yrs ago we had a lot of awesome memories of riding in it!!
Your grandson will never forget these kinds of things when he grows up. These memories are the greatest and most beautiful legacie/heritage (sorry i don't know the right english word, but you now what i mean i guess 😉) you can give your grandson.
Heritage is a great word. Thank you!
I love this sled-tent and a man being the best Grand-Dad ever, what a blessing.
:)
What a delightful video, thank you for sharing, I'm a new grandfather and I so look forward to moments like these, to be able to emulate a great example of what fathering looks like your patience and joy that your videos bring forth add light to this world, thanks again Jim B.
Thanks Jim! Yes, I love the grandpa-years. They go by fast, I don’t want to miss them.
This reminds me of the time I spent with my grandfather in his wood working shop. Those memories are my most precious! You are so patient and are teaching your grandson very useful lessons. Miss seeing your videos but understand time with family is more important. Keep up the great work and bless you and your family!
Thank you for sharing your memories with me. You have blessed me. Yes; I have been spending a lot more time with my grandchildren these days, but I will work on releasing more videos this year as well. I miss my KZhead family!
We miss your videos. Love this one. Awesome to see him work alongside you and already learning what the next step is. There is nothing better than a helper that can anticipate what's next. Live your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much!
I think this adorable and handsome young man has some big-time hero worship going on for gramps!😊❤
Such precious memories being made, not to mention the knowledge being poured into this beautiful young man's spirit. My how he has grown!!!
What a great kid! he works harder and smarter than men 4 times his age! What a great project, you are truly blessed....
Thank you
A very, very warmhearted welcome back. I missed you all 😊
Drox is the cutest thing on the internet. You are a lucky man to have such an inquisitive, fun grandson who obviously adores you.
Another amazing creative idea. What a lucky young boy to have this grandfather!
Big welcome back!! I think of you and Tanya often as I thoughly enjoy your videos my dream is to still visit Alaska. You have one amazing grandson still working side by side with you just beautiful. Wishing you,Tanya and the family a safe and fabulous '24'. Warm wishing from Fiona in Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you Fiona, it is so good to hear from you!
How good it is to see that boy working with so much enthusiasm, I congratulate you. Greetings from Argentina.
The anticipation of finishing what you made with your own 2 hands is much more rewarding that going out and buying it. Great job guys! Hope you had a fun time🎉
Thanks! Yes, I agree.
Wonderful video. You’re both so lucky to have each other. A skilled man passing along his knowledge to an eager to learn grandson.
What an awesome relationship you have with your grandson! Your videos are great!!
Thank you Stephen
welcome back, wow this little grandson will never for get this, hes so lucky to have U! good luck to all of U's, blessings to all!!👏😁
Your grandson will one day be one of the best builders out in Alaska. God bless both of you!
OK, the way you work together almost reading each other's minds is crazy cool. You look like you have been working together for many years.
AND, that's one of the best thing's I've seen. Holy cow.
Welcome back Gale, what an incredible sled camper you two built! Your grandson is gonna grow up with so many valuable skills that you have taught him and what a blessing to share this time with him ! I was really excited to see one of your videos pop up, such craftsmanship and great video quality every time, thanks for sharing! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Thank you! I am so pleased you enjoyed our project. It is good to be able to post a video. It has been a while
It’s lovely to see you back again . Your grandson is growing up fast .
Oh , you two ! You are a perfect team...the prototype is testament to creative thinking and problem solving . Kudos to you both ! This was delightful...the smiles haven't stopped yet !!! Thank you sooo much !!!
Thank you Kaylee. Love your comment. Much love from Alaska!
That is one of the greatest things I have ever seen!!!! And SUCH a quality Grandfather and Grandson experience!
:)
How beautiful!🥰🤗Good night, dear child.😊
:)
Everyone talks about how lucky the boy is, but what a gift for you! Kids keep us young. They keep us connected to when life was simpler and we saw wonder everywhere we looked. Adventure was just around the corner. Or the snowmobile track, as it were! 😊❤️
Thank you for mentioning this. I agree. Being able to work with a child is so rewarding. I wouldn’t want to miss this gift. I am here for it!
Awesome to see you creating again.
What a wonderful experience for your grandson! Watching his excitement from the start of making the sled camper to it's finish & then getting to go out with grandpa to enjoy it - such fun times to be had & remembered in the months ahead ... GREAT JOB well done by you both! ❤
It's so good to see you again, Gale! You make a difference in our lives and I am grateful. How wonderful that you and your grandson can collaborate together. Surely it is an experience that will last both your lifetimes. Greetings to your lovely wife, too. Catherine Cooper
Hello Catherine! So good to hear from you. It has been a minute. We are all doing well here. It’s been and extremely cold winter but we are warm and snug. Peace to you from all of us
How sweet of you to reply! I was listening to you and Tanya responding to comments of your viewers. I so loved the one that said they click the like button before watching. They echoed me perfectly. I do that each time because I know that it will be enjoyable and worthwhile. Many blessings to you both for that. There is one thing that I wish to take you to task for, Mr. Gale. I know you won't pay attention, but I'll feel better for having said it. PLEASE wear a mask and eye protection when tearing down old construction. Wouldn't it be awful if you lost an eye because a splinter got in it, or you got COPD and couldn't breathe without an oxygen machine because you took in all that dirt. I'm 75 years old and I know that our last years should be pleasant and as vital as can be. Lord knows that we've worked hard enough to earn that! Sitting up to sleep with oxygen attached to your face is NOT the ideal way to live. This is asked with love and caring. I feel like you, Tanya and Drox are family because I've watched you for so long. Catherine@@ThisIsMyAlaska
Thank you Catherine. I appreciate your kind words (and advice). Peace to you form Alaska
Absolutely wonderful to see grandpa and grandson making things and enjoying their time.
