Backcountry Canoe Camping Trip - Killarney Provincial Park, Ontario Canada The Timber Life 2019-02-15 | Caitlin compiled all the extra footage and behind the scenes to make her own little masterpiece of a film for those of you that want just a little more of The Timber Life. Our first stop was Killarney Outfitters. We’ve been renting canoes and picking up last minute gear from them for many years so it was a real pleasure to get to meet the owner Ted who helps us pick a new camp stove.http://www.killarneyoutfitters.comWe got an MSR Dragonfly stove and it's awesome. Making coffee and cooking is so much quicker than starting a fire and since the fire ban had just lifted we wanted to be careful with having open firesOur Favorite Stove: amzn.to/2X8MEnIWith a few more items in our cart and the canoe rental sorted, we were ready for adventure.Time Stamps: Tent and sleeping set up: 1:23How to hang a food barrel: 3:31Tarp set up: 4:40Camp oatmeal recipe: 9:38Canoe route and trip summary: 10:00Over the course of the trip and pleasure paddles, we paddled 54km and walked 1,150m of portage trail (+ multiple trips).The tent we use: amzn.to/2TSshczOur Wool Anoraks and my wool shirt that keep us dry and warm are from Weather Woolweatherwool.com/?rfsn=909722.4e1e2Our amazon.com Affiliate LinksCamera SetupsBest (but biggest) Camera - http://amzn.to/2FbCJokCanon EF 16-35mm http://amzn.to/2oPcSeIIf we could only have one camera - http://amzn.to/2CYlYL6Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 http://amzn.to/2oG7hIwOld Faithful Camera - http://amzn.to/2FlJWp3.

Overnight At Our Off Grid Cabin Build & the BEST Bushcraft Rotisserie Chicken The Timber Life 2022-09-20 | #campcooking #cabinbuilding #campingI quote my husband "best chicken I've ever had!". We slow roasted a whole organic chicken rotisserie style over hot coals. Was only seasoned with salt and pepper! Chicken cooked for two hours and should have an internal temperature of 160 degrees F in the thickest part of the thigh. The perfect campfire for cooking: build up your fire with some hot coals, use hard woods and bigger logs to get a roaring fire. Make sure the fire has simmered down, ideally no more flames and just glowing coals for when the food is directly above the fire. We built the coals up and created an oven where the heat was surrounding the chicken.Warm Beet Salad:arugulared onionone orangefetagolden beetsS & PDressing was so simple, just olive oil and red wine vinegar!We (well, nowadays its mostly my husband) are building our own cabin sustainably built with 100% self-harvested wood from the surrounding trees. To follow the cabin build and to learn more about woodlot management check out my husbands channel: @TrustinTimber Our little darling is 10 months in this video and I couldn't help putting in some (a lot?!) of her cute clips. If I'm being honest, its selfishly just for us so in the future we can go back and watch her at this stage... some parts may feel like your watching a home video (sorry if thats not your thing lol) but how cool will it be when she is older to watch herself?! Anyways, we spend the night at our cabin and cook up a delicious dinner and breakfast. I had not planned on filming a video of this trip so it is quite short and sweet and simple but I missed you guys and missed editing videos!!! Hope you enjoy! xoFollow the journey on Instagram @caitlin_timber & @trustintimber
Forest Camp Kitchen: Full Build with Dead Trees The Timber Life 2022-05-13 | The Timber Tavern is complete! We are so happy with how it turned out. Check out part 1 (video link below) to see what this part of the woods looked like before. A true transformation! We used all dead wood and unlike my other videos, chose to use some power tools to speed up the process. Building with a baby takes muuuuch longer! Many fire cooked meals will be had here. It’s so nice to have custom built counter tops and a space to hang all of our pots and storage space. My favourite feature may be the hidden storage space.. hides all our food prep, a dish water basin, cooler, etc. Makes the camp neat and video ready at all times haha.We wanted to build this outdoor kitchen so that all food and food prep and smells are away from the cabin so that we are not attracting animals into the cabin.Caitlin makes an easy one pot Chicken Tortilla Soup - looks like a lot of ingredients but they all go into one pot almost all at once - super easy and delicious (recipe below!). For our first official dinner in the Timber Tavern we make a dinner inspired by Francis Mallmann. Francis is a world renowned fire chef and a big inspiration to the Timber’s! We cooked up his recipe of a seared ribeye steak with toasted brioche, dates, and arugula. We added forest harvested wild leeks that Trustin foraged and portobello mushrooms too. It was SO good. Caitlin is excited to experiment with wild foods and forage more this spring and cook up some delicious meals so stay tuned for more! Hope you enjoy!Check out Trustin’s channel: @TrustinTimber for all our videos on the off grid cabin build using self-harvested lumber and Trustin’s version of this build which is more focused on the structural building.

Building an Outdoor Kitchen in the Woods: Breaking Ground & Campfire Feast The Timber Life 2022-04-26 | I'm Back! So happy to be bringing the camera back out with me after taking almost 6 months off of filming as I soaked up every moment of being a new mama. Feeling inspired and excited to bring you along on our adventures again. In this video we tear down a tarp shelter and start building Caitlin's dream Camp Kitchen! Everything takes longer with a baby so we didn't get as much done as I thought but in next weeks video it will really start coming together! We also make a delicious forest feast.. a juicy roast seared on the cast iron with potatoes, onion, garlic and rosemary. Finished the meal off with charred asparagus over the campfire. Our fire cooking is about to go to the next level!Hope you enjoy! xoTo follow the cabin build, sustainably built with self harvested logs check out Trustin's channel at @TrustinTimber Follow the journey on Instagram @caitlin_timber & @trustin timber

Keeping Up With The Timbers: Overnight Camp & Cabin Building The Timber Life 2021-06-08 | #cabinbuilding #campcooking #camping Hello! Welcome back to our channel. In this video I'm bringing you along on a quick overnight camp at the cabin build site. This cabin is being built with 100% self harvested logs on a privately owned woodlot. For more information on that, please see below.To follow along on the cabin build (or other awesome previous builds) check out my husbands channel @TrustinTimber Follow the journey on instagram: @caitlin_timber & @trustintimberGourmet camp lunch provided by stowawaygourmet.comIn my eloquent husbands words: In 2013 we bought a little cabin in the woods as our permanent home. This decision really changed the course of our life. Living along a flowing river full of trout, surrounded with a canopy of old-growth forest has taught us the values of living within nature. But, like all good things you always want more. For now, we intend to keep this little slice of heaven but are looking to set up another home base a little further north. Since we’re looking for land that has both a fresh water source and plenty of acres to explore, protect, and manage, we’re expecting to have to pay a fair fee and know we’ll need to put most of our financial resources into the land itself. We also want to design a life that allows us to live a debt-free life to avoid financial stress and worry that often prevents people from properly considering environmental factors in their home building decisions. When even the cheapest mass-produced house is beyond the reach of most, concerns about quality and environment are often pushed aside. This project is going to explore traditional building methods that have environmental concerns at the forefront.Although it is a little disturbing to see how many trees it takes to make a small cabin I feel so fortunate that my cabin project won’t contribute to the deforestation of the old growth great Canadian wildness that I love exploring. At the rate of tree growth, and the size of the woodlot, if managed properly there would be trees for many many generations of cabin builders. My goal is to self harvest 100% of the wood used in this cabin not only reducing deforestation but also reduce environmental impact with the reduced transportation costs, and manufacturing of synthetic materials.

Baking Bread on a Campfire & Overnight Camp at Cabin Build Site The Timber Life 2021-05-04 | #campcooking #cabinbuilding #campingThere’s nothing like fresh baked bread! I’m sharing with you a very simple bread recipe you can make at home or at camp. You’ll need:4 cups all purpose flour 2 teaspoons instant yeast2 teaspoons kosher salt1.5 - 2 cups water1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oilparchment papercast iron pan/dutch ovenCombine 3 cups flour, yeast and salt. Gradually add in water and oil. Mix until well combined. You want the dough to be sticky and smooth, not watery. If you’ve added too much water it will pool at the bottom (just pour out excess or add some more flour). Cover and let sit a room temperature for about 1-2 hours until the dough has doubled in size.Generously coat the dough with flour and work it into a ball and place on a large piece of parchment paper.Campfire: build up your fire with some hot coals, ideally try to use hard woods and bigger logs to get a roaring fire. Make sure the fire has simmered down, ideally no more flames and just glowing coals. Place your dough on some parchment paper and place in a cast iron dutch oven or pan. Place some hot coals on top to make sure the bread cooks evenly. Watch that bread like a hawk! Coals are HOT! Regularly check the bread, once browned, remove from heat and assess. If burning or browning too quickly, push coals away and keep checking until you get the desired tastiness.Conventional Over: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and place an empty cast iron dutch oven in oven to warm for 30 min. Carefully remove hot dutch oven and place the dough on the parchment paper into the pot. Transfer back to oven and cook covered for 30 minutes. Carefully remove life and continue baking for an additional 10-15 min until bread is golden brown. Remove from oven and cool. Voila! We are also sharing a sneak peak of our cabin build, sustainably built with 100% self-harvested materials.

ICED IN: Paddling Frozen Lake - Winter Camping Trip in Canadian Wilderness The Timber Life 2020-12-29 | Welcome back to our channel!I wanted to squeeze one more canoe trip into this season and we did just in the nick of time! We set up a home base with our tentipi and enjoyed the beautiful Canadian winter wilderness for a few days. We kept a close eye on the water to make sure we were not getting frozen in and left a day early when we woke up to the entire lake freezing over. Mother Nature is always in control and we were at her mercy! Breaking through ice to get home was a cool experience but our paddles took a beating. We also had some spectators filming us breaking through once we got back to civilization. They could hear us coming from mile a way and said we were crazy. Are we crazy?! That's okay with us :)Safe to say this will be our last canoe trip of the season! Let us know what you would like to see from us in the off season!Love,The Timbers xoFollow the journey on Instagram:@caitlin_timber@trustintimberCheck out our other channel youtube.com/c/trustintimberfilms~ OUR GEAR ~Freeze-dried gourmet food provided by: stowawaygourmet.comOur Canoe: abitibico.ca/enOur Packs: frostriver.comWater filter: amzn.to/2Q6F8rbCaitlin's Pants: amzn.to/2Y8DB8ICaitlin's Boots: amzn.to/3iT7uBTCaitlin's Knife: amzn.to/3h5fjnfThe Timber Life is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program.

ESCAPE TO THE WOODS: Waking up in a Winter Wonderland & the BEST Campfire Pasta! The Timber Life 2020-12-11 | Welcome back to our channel!This time we are bringing you with us to the cabin build site. Please note, we are only cutting trees on a private woodlot that is being managed for a lumber resource and an oxygen producing carbon sink. This is a very environmentally friendly way to build a home or cabin. The trees grow and store carbon, and then we cut them to hold the carbon and build with them storing that carbon for centuries. Meanwhile new trees grow in their place producing clean oxygen and storing more carbon. The cycle produces a healthy forest and is extremely environmentally friendly.I make my famous truffle pasta with crispy prosciutto... just typing this description makes my mouth water! We play some cards, enjoy the fire and moonlight and fall asleep to the coyotes howling nearby. To our surprise, we make up to SNOW! It was our first snowfall of the season in Ontario, Canada. This video is short and sweet because I am not filming much as Trustin puts me to work on the cabin! We always joke that if we both did not have youtube channels then this cabin would be done already! But enjoying the process and sharing the journey with you all is what we love to do. Enjoy! xoSay hi on Instagram:@caitlin_timber@trustintimberTo watch more scenes from this overnight check out Trustin's video (he does card magic!) you can watch it here: youtu.be/fwAHNIRcITc and to follow along on the cabin build project follow our other channel: www.youtube.com/c/trustintimberfilmsBe nice to people, Be nice to our Earth.The Timbers xo
ESCAPE TO THE CABIN: Exploring Ontarios Colourful Autumn Wilderness - Canoe & Hiking Trip The Timber Life 2020-10-13 | Welcome back to our channel! In this video we take you along on Caitlin's Birthday trip to her remote off grid family cabin in Northern Ontario, Canada. The first full day out here we set off in the morning with the goal of reaching a remote lake and wilderness conservation reserve, only accessible by bush whacking. We paddled through a few lakes battling high winds and then paddled down a narrow channel and creek while in awe of the beautiful autumn fall colours that surrounded us. This year in particular has been exceptionally magnificent for fall colours in Ontario. We also answered some of your questions you submitted on the community thread. The following day we paddle to an island a few lakes away from the cabin and enjoyed our evening cooking dinner over the campfire and taking in all of the beautiful sights and sounds. By the time we put out the fire and packed up to go home it was already getting dark so we paddled by moonlight and through thick and thin patches of rain back to the cabin. It looks dark on the camera and on your screen of course but I want to assure everyone that our eyes did adjust and we could still see fairly well. Of course I could see the tree line and horizon line but I also could see the buoys, and the waters in front and was able to navigate around obstructions safely. If you do not know the water you are paddling, I do not recommend paddling at night. With that being said, when done safely, paddling during the evening is my favourite. The moonlight and the reflections of stars on the water on a clear night is something I think everyone should experience at least once.The video wraps up with Caitlin's birthday celebrations, some fishing, and popping of champagne.

LOST IN THE WILDERNESS: Backcountry Canoe Camping Trip - Turner Lake, Temagami - Crown Land Camping The Timber Life 2020-09-08 | Welcome back to my channel! You are invited! Taking you along with us as we celebrate Trustin Timber's Birthday! After about two hours of being lost trying to find the access point (don't trust the locals!) we finally got on the water. A few portages, a lot of creek walking, and a few lift overs later, we made it to our destination for the night. We had a lovely steak camp meal down by the lake and fell asleep to the loons serenading us. We got up early and pushed off for Turner lake. The portage was not clearly marked and our map had the portage in the wrong spot. Nonetheless, we trusted our instincts and pushed through an old growth forest with more moose tracks than human tracks. The portage crosses over the deepest part of the creek so we had to hop back into the canoe briefly mid portage. Turner Lake was everything we imagined and more and we had the place to ourselves! A beautiful paradise to celebrate Trustin's birthday.

ESCAPE TO PARADISE: 5 Day Backcountry Canoe Trip - TURQUOISE lake in Canada! Fish Sanctuary & Moose The Timber Life 2020-08-18 | Hello! Welcome back to our channel! Taking you along on a quick five day trip to Temagami in Northern Ontario, Canada. We put in at the Haines Creek access point and paddled down to Smoothwater Lake (a really peaceful easy paddle). We made a day trip up to the highest lake in the Temagami Region - Sunny Water Lake. It is an acid rain lake so the water is very very blue and clear, quite the contrast to most lakes in Ontario. It makes you feel like you are in the tropics! The journey to get here was about 2 KM (1.2 miles) of portaging and through a few lakes that are home to an endangered fish species - the Aurora Trout. Fishing is prohibited in these lakes. The following day we needed to cross Smoothwater Lake .. but the water was far from smooth! We hugged the shore and made our way south to the other side and then North to find a campsite. The following morning we headed out early in hopes to spot some wildlife. Our wishes came true when Caitlin spotted a mother moose and her calf. A really special moment we are so grateful to have witnessed.

SOLO OVERNIGHT - THUNDERSTORM, TARP SHELTER & TICK BITE The Timber Life 2020-07-14 | Hello! Welcome back to my channel.Went out on another solo adventure, this time at the Tipi Platform Camp. To see this platform build visit my husbands channel: youtu.be/8ChuqdtXSQU**This is private land**Do not take boughs or green wood from a park or crown land** I cooked a delicious camp dinner for one and had a blast under my tarp listening to the rain and the thunder. I stayed dry and woke up early to the sun peaking up over the trees and the birds singing me awake. My peaceful morning was then abruptly interrupted when I discovered an unwanted visitor. Around 6 am I found a tick feeding on me. I held it captive while I tried to continue my morning the best I could. I made bacon and my famous crispy coconut strawberry pancakes. Hope you enjoy. xo.I submitted the tick for testing and was prescribed antibiotics.Instagram: caitlin_timberMY GEAR:Tick kit I have (use the tweezers): amzn.to/2PbnKkD My boots: amzn.to/3gYwgQmMy sleeping bag: amzn.to/322giP7My packs and tarp: www.frostriver.comTICK SAFETY:- wear long sleeved tight fitted clothing and closed toe footwear. Tuck your socks into your pants (you don't want any exposed skin).- wear light coloured clothing (so you can better spot a tick if it gets on you)- if your country allows it, clothing with permethrin is good to wear in areas that have a large tick population.- use an insect repellent containing DEET on your clothes and exposed skin (follow directions on package).- regularly check your body (especially hidden areas such as back of ears, armpits, back of knees, groin, scalp).- Place outdoor clothing and bedding in dryer on high heat for 30 min to prevent any live ticks from coming home with you.If you discover a tick feeding on you:Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible (do not grasp the body) and pull the tick out slowly with even pressure to ensure mouth parts are removed and body is not crushed.Wash area with soap and warm waterPut the tick into a container with a lid or a sealed plastic bagBring the tick to your local health unit for testing and visit a doctor. Make sure you tell them how long you think the tick could have been on you - the timing is important for health professionals to rate the risk of transmission of lyme disease or other bacteria. DO NOTGrasp around bloated belly and squeeze the tickUse a match, heat or chemicals to try and remove it

Fire Roasted PIZZA! Handmade Carved Maple Wood Rolling Pin & Cast Iron Cooking The Timber Life 2020-03-24 | I've always wanted to make pizza over the fire, and with the current global health crisis, I have been making our breads at home. So I decided to give pizza dough a try. I prepared the dough at home earlier in the day and while getting out to our bush camp, it continued to rise. This recipe is what I use for our breads, it is very simple and the best part? No kneading required! Pizza Dough Recipe (& you only need half of the dough, save the other half for bread or you can freeze it for up to 3 months!) 3 Cups all-purpose flour2 tsp instant yeast2 tsp kosher salt (or table salt works)1 tbs olive oil1.5 - 2 cups water.In a large bowl stir together dry ingredients. Then add the olive oil and begin slowly adding water while stirring with a wooden spoon until well combined. Feel free to add in any other herbs or spices for flavouring (I added in oregano and basil). You want the dough smooth, but not dry. If you've added too much water, just pour it out of the bowl carefully. This is pretty foolproof. The dough should be light and slightly sticky, not dry or heavy. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap (or better yet, some other more eco-friendly wrap) and let it sit at room temperature until it has doubled in size (about 1-2 hours)Take about half of the dough and place it on a floured work surface and start rolling it out until you get your desired size and shape. If cooking over coals, don't make the same mistake we made - don't underestimate the extreme heat coals give off! Be patient and don't place your pizza on red coals, it will burn! Hindsight is always 20/20, we learned a lot and we will perfect pizza making over the fire very soon!Enjoy and stay safe xoLove,The TimbersFollow the journey on Instagram:Caitlin_Timber : instagram.com/caitlin_timberTrustintimber : instagram.com/trustintimber
How to TAP MAPLE TREES - Harvesting Fresh Maple Tea & Snowshoeing in Canada The Timber Life 2020-03-17 | Tis the season! We tapped some beautiful grand mature maple trees and had some lovely sweet maple tea. We later boiled the rest down at home and made the most delicious sweet maple syrup! Tapping season in our neighbourhood is generally around early - mid March and depends on weather conditions. Sap starts flowing when daytime temperatures rise above freezing (32 degrees Fahrenheit / 0 Celsius) but nighttime temperatures still remain below freezing. The rising temperature creates the pressure causing the flow. Sap tastes best early on in the season and the later you tap, the more bitter it tastes. Please only tap healthy mature Maple trees! Select trees that are at the very least 10 inches in diameter. We plugged the holes after an hour with a sapling from the same tree to reduce any chance of infection.

My 1st SOLO Winter Overnight! Bushcraft Shelter, Cooking on Coals, Campfire Breakfast The Timber Life 2020-03-10 | I accomplished my first SOLO overnight winter camping trip and I had an awesome time!! I hope you enjoy this video as I share my experience camping solo!Temperatures dipped to - 7 ° C ( 19.4° F) but my sleeping set up kept me toasty warm. I had a base layer that acted as a barrier for ground moisture, a base wool blanket and then I had a bivvy over my sleeping bag to ensure I kept dry, and then a wool blanket on the top. Despite being warm, I don't think I really slept that well because I did feel very confined in the sleeping bag. It is designed for back sleepers and I am a side sleeper. But that just made me that much more grateful for my comfy bed at home which includes a cuddling hubby. :) One of my favourite meals to make at home when we are eating outside is spaghetti squash because the spaghetti squash acts as the bowl and therefore keeps the dish very hot for a long time. It is the one dish we can eat out on our back patio that keeps on steaming to the very last bite. I cooked it over the coals for about an hour or so and it turned out delicious!Waking up to the birds and the sun peeking through the trees was an amazing refreshed feeling. Solo camping is very meditative. I got the fire going quickly and had the best cup of coffee EVER. When I am at home and having avocado toast for breakfast I usually add sea salt, lime juice, radishes... all the fixings. This morning I had plain avocado on a plain fire toasted bagel and it was sooo delicious. What does that say about being out here?! I hope you enjoy this video and I can't wait to do more solo trips! It's addicting!!Hope you enjoy xo My pants: amzn.to/324EoZACheck out my husbands' channel @TrustinTimber Check out the building of this shelter on my husbands channel! youtube.com/watch?v=J6tiJnWsKzA&t=198sFollow the journey on Instagram:Caitlin Timberinstagram.com/caitlin_timber#solocamping #bushcraft #outdoorcooking
Harvesting Firewood at Bushcraft Camp - Axework, Bucksaw, and Fire Cooking The Timber Life 2020-03-03 | To be honest, when I came out here I was not planning on making a video but I started filming a bit and decided to share with you guys my process of getting a fire going.Dead standing trees work great for firewood as they are super dry because they are off the damp wet ground. By harvesting out the dead stand, the living trees have more room to grow and get access to more sunlight. I always carry with me my pouch full of dry tinder - which mostly consists of birch bark, a little fat wood, dry cedar shavings... I also keep a small supply of dryer lint in my pouch for those really wet days when I need to catch a quick spark.Tonight on the menu we had cauliflower coconut soup with potatoes, carrots, and onions. We topped it off with a generous bunch of fresh dill and my homemade baked bread. Next Timber Tuesday I will be uploading MY SOLO OVERNIGHT!

OUR HOME IN THE WOODS - Snowed in: Cabin Life, Winter Hike & Romance The Timber Life 2020-01-31 | I decided to invite you into our home in this video. When we are not out on an adventure somewhere else, this is a typical weekend day at our little cabin in the woods. We are so grateful to live in Canada and live in an area surrounded by conservation land with tons of hiking trails and get to fall asleep by the sound of the river. Please let me know if I should do more vlog style videos of our day to day life... we grow a garden in the spring and have a plan to embrace more of a homestead lifestyle. Please let me know if you would be interested in that sort of content as well. I'm still experimenting with my film making and appreciate you so much for watching!Anyone else have any of the books on our bookshelf? Any book recommendations? I hope one day we can build a library into our home in the woods.With love,The Timbers xx
Tentipi Treehouse Camping - Hot Tent, Upcycled Flooring, Camp Cooking The Timber Life 2019-12-03 | The Timbers are back at their Tipifort Treehouse Camp!In this video we spent one night out here as we prepare the camp for winter. We upcycled some old left over cork flooring to put on the platform floor to help stop cold air flow. We definitely noticed a big difference. We then put in a camp stove. This is the first time we have used a camp stove in the tipi. To be honest, it was a little cramped and at times dangerous as the stove got very hot to the touch. We had to be careful not to graze it by accident and ensure nothing was close to it. We have plans to expand our living quarters and give us a little more room... stay tuned for that in future videos. :) We cooked a delicious comforting spaghetti over the camp stove and then warmed up some apple pie for desert. It gets dark so early this time of year, we were fed and in bed by 8 PM! The stove kept us warm all night, we only had to re stock it once as the damper allowed us to control the speed of the burn quite easily. Hope you enjoy! xxFollow the journey on Instagram:www.instagram.com/caitlin_timber www.instagram.com/trustintimber
Winterizing Bushcraft Shelter - Gourmet Camp Cooking, Sheltercraft, Dal Inspired Soup The Timber Life 2019-11-12 | Move over canoe season, shelter season is here!Our bushcraft shelter needed some love as we prepare for another winter season so I decided to make a day of it and make dinner out here. It was nice to be back. I felt a little like Cinderella with our new friends that have since made this shelter their home..This recipe is a tried and tested favourite in Caitlin's repertoire but this is the first time we made it outdoors and it definitely tasted different! It's crazy how different cooking over a fire really tastes when you use a recipe you are so familiar with. I know this video doesn't have much substance to it.. but I wanted to share this favourite recipe with you all and to get you all excited with us for many more camps back at this shelter this season! Please see recipe below, I highly recommend this soup! We have been enjoying this comforting soup for years indoors on a cold winter day and it was fun to bring the comforts of home outdoors.The Timbers Soup3 tbs oil1 onion1 carrot2 cloves minced garlic2 tbs minced ginger2 tsp curry powder1 tsp ground cumin1/2 tsp turmeric1 cup lentils4 cups vegetable broth1 cup coconut milk4 potatoes chopped1 bunch of spinach2 green onions1/2 cup chopped cilantro- heat oil and sauté onions, carrot, garlic and ginger until soft.- add spices, cooking for another few minutes- add vegetable broth (in this case we just had water and I could really taste the difference), coconut milk, potatoes and lentils.- simmer for about 20 min until lentils are soft.- stir in spinach (and any other veggies you crave)- garnish with a generous amount of chopped green onion and cilantro (some people HATE cilantro, so be sure to make sure to inquire before serving with cilantro!!)* I tried this recipe using a tempering method used widely in traditional dal recipes.. but I did not have the right spices (rosemary is a completely different flavour than asafoetida..) so I would skip this added step unless you have the right aromatics to compliment the soup.- Serve with toasted bread and butter (I personally like to add them to the soup like big croutons). MMM!*If making at home, double the recipe so you can enjoy this soup for the whole week.Enjoy!! xoFollow the journey on Instagram:www.instagram.com/caitlin_timber www.instagram.com/trustintimber
Fly in Camping Trip - Float Plane, Canvas Tarp Shelter, Backcountry Camping Temagami Ontario Canada The Timber Life 2019-11-05 | We had the most amazing peaceful weekend away celebrating Caitlin's Birthday. It was just us and the loons. We spoiled ourselves by flying in and getting dropped off by float plane. It is an amazing feeling admiring the vast remote wilderness from above and flying deeper and deeper into the backcountry and then getting dropped off in the thick of it. While paddling we watched the plane fly off into the distance leaving us with silence and seclusion. Since we had the luxury of flying in, we packed some extra items (more red wine than we could drink!) and birthday treats to enjoy. We made a tripod tarp shelter using the 11 'by 11' Northwoods Canvas Tarp by Frost River and used a dead fallen balsam fir and driftwood. We cooked our food over the campfire using the hanging pot method, swinging it, when the pot became too hot. We had an amazing time and are excited to share it with you! Hope you enjoy xo.

Cabin Falls: Paddle into Paradise - Canoe Trip to a Backcountry Ecolodge Retreat - Temagami Ontario The Timber Life 2019-10-08 | We had an amazing week at Cabin Falls Ecolodge. Situated in the heart of Lady Evelyn Smoothwater Provincial Park, perched over a 10-meter waterfall and surrounded by old-growth pine forests, this place is a true backcountry paradise. We stayed in the original cabin built in 1930 by the Temea Augama Anishnabe, the First Nations People of the Temagami area from Bear Island. To learn more about this cabin and the history of Cabin Falls you can purchase Hap's book, The Cabin, on amazon here: amzn.to/2XhwcW4 Hap and Andrea Wilson are incredible hosts and even better friends. We feel so grateful to have learned from these pros. We paddled 35 KM down the Lady Evelyn River - running about 5 class 1 rapids and 16 portages in 8 hours. We were hustling and thought we did great... until Hap and Andrea said it was the slowest they've ever paddled, haha. The Timbers have some work to do if they want to keep up with these modern-day voyageurs! We wined, dined, and drank our water from the naturally fed spring at the back of the property. We spent our 1 year wedding anniversary out here and we could not have asked for a better place and friends to share it with! We had an incredible time and wanted to share this beautiful place with you all.To book your own stay at Cabin Falls please visit their website: http://cabinfalls.caFollow our journey on Instagram:www.instagram.com/caitlin_timberwww.instagram.com/trustintimberCheck out our other YouTube channel:www.youtube.com/trustintimberfilms
Off Grid Cabin Life - Fishing, Foraging, Wildlife, Canoeing The Timber Life 2019-08-02 | In this video we take you along on a very last minute weekend trip to Caitlin's off grid family cabin in Northern Ontario, Canada.My favourite childhood memories were born in this place. With no road access or electricity, it was a place of refuge... and a place to unplug from the noise and distraction of the outside world.It was here as a young girl that I learned how to wash clothes in a basin and hang them to dry... how to put a worm on a hook and hypnotize the frogs. How to play euchre, paddle the J stroke, and learn what to do if a bear approaches.And as I grew older, some coming of age passages; I wrote love letters to boys after learning absence makes the heart grow fonder, I learned how to make a mean vodka ceasar and that drinking gin makes me throw up, and that streaking is done best in the pouring rain with your best friends.Most of all, am so grateful to this cabin for the late night conversations, dimly lit by the kerosene lamps, where I learned more about the people I love and their secrets and fears than I would have anywhere else.Hope you like it! xoCheck out the Trustin Timber Channel here:https://www.youtube.com\c\trustintimberfilmstrustintimberproductions.comSay hello on Instagram Caitlin Timberhttps://www.instagram.com/caitlin_tim...

Two Night Camp at Tipi Fort Treehouse - Camp Cooking and Campcraft The Timber Life 2019-06-21 | Welcome to the Timbers Camp!This platform was collected with all dead wood with the exception of two Larch trees that had blown over in the winter ice storm. Everything was scribed and saddle notched using gravity and angles to hold the foundation together. In this video we spend two nights at our Tipifort Tentipi Treehouse camp. We arrived at night so first priority was making candles for light (and ambiance). We then made a delicious brie and apple midnight snack over the fire before climbing up to bed. Day two consisted of some camp craft projects, relaxing, and building a split log table to enjoy our camp cooked meal. Enjoy! xxYou can also follow our journey on Instagram.

Winter Camping in Bushcraft Shelter - Spruce Bough Bed, Long Log Fire, Camp Cooking The Timber Life 2019-04-02 | This was our first winter camping experience together and Caitlin's first overnight at our bushcraft shelter. We collected spruce boughs for our bedding, made a self-feeding long log fire to keep us warm throughout the night, and cooked up a campfire feast for dinner and breakfast. Nightime temperatures were below freezing, at -6 degrees Celsius (21 degrees Fahrenheit). Trustin was toasty warm all night in his Kifaru sleeping bag whereas Caitlin was cold, but survived.

Off-Grid Forest Wedding: Timbers Tie The Knot The Timber Life 2019-02-12 | We're officially The Timbers! Come along with us as we celebrate our forest wedding. On August 7, 2018, our dream, fairytale wedding came true. We wanted to design a day that was uniquely ours. A day where we could share the lifestyle that brings us the most joy with the people we love.So what did we do? We sharpened the axes, strung the bows, and along with our closest friends and family, headed into the forest. We weren’t planning on making a video and we didn’t hire a wedding videographer. However, thanks to the collective efforts of our guests and modern-day technology, we were able to assemble the footage into one beautiful memory.Still Wedding Photography by http://tylerandersonphoto.comForest feast provided by Foodies Anonymous.www.foodiesanonymous.caFollow our journey on Instagramwww.instagram.com/thetimberlifewww.instagram.com/trustintimberwww.instagram.com/caitlin_timber
A Day at the Tree Farm with The Timbers The Timber Life 2019-01-22 | A day at the tree farm with The Timbers! We are felling and peeling logs to build our future log cabin and thinning out the planted trees to encourage new natural growth and so the remaining trees grow stronger, bigger, and happier. Winter is the best time of year to harvest trees since the sap wont start flowing in full speed until the spring and the wood will be stronger and dry quicker.Affiliate LinksWeatherWool Anoraksweatherwool.com/?rfsn=909722.4e1e2Husqvarna 26” Forest Axehttp://amzn.to/2FhPmBBHusqvarna Camp Axehttp://amzn.to/2CY6PtDHusqvarna 536 Li XP Battery Ch http://amzn.to/2FM5ex8
