Probably shouldnt' have appended an old thread but if you liked Alone in the Wilderness, I watched a great film last night called 'Happy People - A Year in the Taiga' sort of Alone in the Wilderness, Derzu Uzala and Dead River Rough Cut mixed together about a Siberian village and trapping outpost and the sable trappers who live in remote tributaries of the Yenisei River. Well worth the watch.

I don't really have to explain this to any of the guys from around here, but outside of the "big" cities in this state, it's pretty much a self sufficient setting. I know several people still on the road system that don't have power outside of a generator.

Shoot, when I first moved in my house in 08 I only had power and gas from the grid. No cable, phone, mail route, etc.
