And here's Dick Proenneke's way of doing it, pre-Internet:

[edit: originally stated he was an Army engineer, but turns out he had various hands-on jobs, one being a Navy carpenter during the second World War.

I much prefer Dick Proenneke's dream of living in the wilderness.

And I'm sure Dick Proenneke, if he were doing it today, would have a bank of solar panels and satellite Internet.
