Cabin Life
The city of Fairbanks and surrounding area is underlain by discontinuous permafrost, which basically mean that the ground beneath is frozen during the whole year, well it thaws and then refreezes during the summer and fall. The actual downtown area of Fairbanks and the university do have running water, but other parts does not. There are many cabins surrounding the university area, and many of these do not have any water at all (dry cabin) and other have a large water system (2-300 gallons worth). I ended up living in a dry cabin and here is a collection of all my posts about that cabin, but also other cabins around the state without any running water that we stayed at.
Rumbleinthearctic is a blog about life in the USA. It started out as a blog about my life in Alaska, which transitioned into life in Wisconsin and then NYC. Now it covers my life in Hudson Valley, NY. The blog is also about my travels to various reoccurring states, like Montana aka Big Sky Country, and all the hikes I do there. We also do a lot of camping trips and I often write about that too. It is also a blog about science and how I incorporate that into my hiking and travels to different parts of the US, and what I do for a living. A Swede living in the US.
