When early settlers2 made their way out into the American frontier3, they used the trees in the nearby forests and any tools they had available to construct a home. The log cabins the settlers built were simple by today's standards. Now, National Geographic Channel (NGC) takes traditional log cabin building to a new extreme with the new show, Cabin Fever. Nate Heim and his team of craftsmen, log peelers4, and grunts5 saw their way into the perfect log cabin home. The show follows Heim as he travels across the country meeting clients who want the log cabin of their dreams. When Heim returns to his log yard located in Kelliher, Minnesota, he and his team peel, cut, and assemble the logs into the exact order in which the house must be built. Once the outer shell is completed, the logs are taken apart and then shipped to the client's location. The end result is fantastic. Each log cabin is constructed in its own unique way and still comes complete with all the bells and whistles of a normal home. Early settlers never had it so good because they never had powerful electric chainsaws6. Check out all the amazing cabins this month on NGC's Cabin Fever.
