    Indeed! Fascinating pictures, sitting here shivering at how cold it made me feel, but that cabin is something else, liked that a LOT. Thanks for posting the link.

    That might be a balmy day for some but digging through that permafrost must have been a nightmare, I've seen 360s having trouble digging through ground that frozen, that guy is a machine lol, that's 'proper' hardcore stuff.

    I've eaten food from all over the world but I have to say Russian cuisine does take a bit of getting used to good to see he had the essentials though, Vodka and a stove.

    And now the nutter is out there digging another hole is he completely mad!

    Loved the pics of the sun hitting the smoke.

    Hats off to the man.

    Read this last night (thanks to Google, cheers gan_pi). It's a long post and I am sure I had frost bite by the time I'd finished it
    But what a way to spend some time, fantastic pictures. Thanks for putting the link up.

    There have been some Russian bushcrafters posting similar threads over on BCUSA (might be the same ones?) Always a long read and difficult due to the translation. But always utterly fascinating! Thanks for posting.
