Had you seen the movie by that older guy up in Canada? Think it was made in the 60's. Very similar experience

> After seeing the documentary "Alone in the wilderness" by Dick Proenneke

Indeed, both series of ''Alone In The Wilderness'' by Dick Proenneke are absolutely essential viewing for anyone wishing to build a log cabin or homestead completely from scratch, off-grid, with minimal modern tools. Proenneke filmed his trips in his light aircraft to Alaska.

I believe you're referring to Richard Proenneke's documentary Alone in the Wilderness. He spent 30 years in a self built cabin off a lake in Alaska filming wildlife.
