Jacob Goes Off Grid At That Old Farm Day 1-7 (Widescreen)

I went off grid for 957 days beginning on 01/13/2017 and it was quite the journey! This video is three hours and fifty-one minutes long so I have had to compress the video file many times to achieve a small file size so parts of it may be blurry or out of focus and also I recorded most of the footage on a second generation Android phone which did not make very high quality videos to start with. In the beginning it was very difficult to keep the phone charged let alone save and store videos at a large size and use up my precious two gigabytes of storage on the phone itself.

'Day 1' is the morning after I arrived at this little place in the mountains in the 'dead of winter' with nothing but my dogs, my wits, minimal gear and very little hard currency to work with. I did my best to breathe life into a very old fallow farm and gave it all my best, 'learning as I go', and documented the process as best I could along the way.

A friend of mine visited the site a few days before my arrival and left me a tent, tarp and a few other supplies that I needed. Upon arrival it was tricky to even find a place to unload all my gear (from a different friend's vehicle) yet alone find a good place to setup a tent. There were literally briers, brambles, wild-raspberries and multi-flora everywhere except in the 'driveway' itself. It had also been raining a lot for several weeks before my arrival so everywhere was wet, mucky and slippery.

This video is the first seven days of my journey at the site that I made and unfortunately the first seventeen days of videos I accidentally shot sideways with my phone so I had to rotate them all later. I actually made videos for all my days there and finally decided to try to compile some of them and publicly share them. This is a widescreen version of the footage and has been altered from its original resolution.
