Outlets or lights near by should be on the same circuit

On mine the outside lights and an outlet outside are all on the same circuit along with outlets on the outside wall in the dining room right near the outside lights

If the OP is set up similarly he should check the outside outlets as one is likely a GFCI outlet and maybe tripped.

Water temps on my lake were 55* today.

Up 3* from last week.

Getting close to killer fall pike and laker fishing time.

What R value do you guys typically insulate to up there?

Not sure but I have R40 in the floor so far.

Walls will be R24, vaulted ceiling R30 and R60 in the other section of the roof.

Should be nice and toasty.

GRRRRRR! I just paged back to the very beginning of this to remind of how the foundation was done. Dave, I guess those were Pbucket 'cause they ain't there no more! I had plans to review the entire post but that profit mongering outfit has ruined it for me and everyone else! What remains is still a work of art and genius, but it ain't all there for full impact! What a dirty shame.

All that stuff is on my cabin building blog.

All the new stuff gets done in the fall after freeze up.

Guess I'll have to fire up the generator and use up some of the company's data again then.

Drifter you live in the town of Yellowknife? I actually bumped into Moosebunk in Yellowknife on his way out from up north. If there is better pike waters then Talston I'd like to fish it. This place is remarkable for the amount of 33 inch plus fish per km. At other spots I have known large pike to gather in strategic ambush spots under specific conditions...but just the amount of large Pike that blanket this area is pretty remarkable.

 

Catching a 50 inch fish there is not uncommon and happens every season from what I saw looking at the records. In our group of 6 we had 4 pike at 46 inches to 48 inches for the week...and that was below the average of other weeks. I think there have been a few 51, 52 inch pike caught over the years and I saw a pic one of these chunky fish that absolutely had to be 50 plus inches.

Yep, I'm in Yellowknife.

Another good big pike spot is Trout Rock Lodge on the North Arm of Great Slave.

It's an early season fishery as it's all shallow there.

They are fishing big pike before the main lake ice goes out.

Once the ice goes out the fish move off shore and disperse there.

A friend of mine guided a 53 1/2" fish there one spring.

So you flew into Yellowknife and didn't say hey?

That is likely the best big pike water anywhere.

I took these last night.

More crappy cabin pics.

Rather then tarping the seats they should sell them. That way Muskymatt can buy a momento for when they move the team.

NAH, they should un-tarp them and offer them free for military and first responders!!!!

Nice idea but not enough population density and disposable income out there

That's cause all de Newfs are working out West bye!!!!

Great work on your "cabin". You certainly have a lot of technical know how!

I have been following your thread since the beginning with great interest as I have also been rebuilding my cottage at the same time.

I had to get building, plumbing and ESA permits with follow up inspections. Is it the same or different up there?

NAH!! We don't need no stinkin' permits!!!!

No permits needed out side of the city limits.

I had two CF-18's fly up the lake this afternoon.

Always love it when they are up here.

I think if I go outside and look up, I'll get poked in the eyes by raindrops. Looks like it won't even get that far south.

It's already visible in Maine.

This is current.

Get out and look up tonight. You will see them.

. Moons been bright though at times, might ruin any sign of northern lights. Can't imagine the streetlights help either.

It depends where you are.

Saw that on FB and all I could do was
