    On the second day, I took the old wood stove out and began working on the hearth. This meant I would be "roughing it" that night because the temps were to get down to 28F. I still had other camp...

    I agree with Marshall. Off-grid can be really expensive. My yurt camp is off grid but I do not use a lot of power. I am talking some lights, powering a laptop and a couple ham radios. That...
