thats nice to hear they gave the huskies a home under the snow. These men ..like the narrator and chief are gentlemen, intelligent men, .. sadly great men like them are long gone, if only we had good men like them on this earth now..we wouldnt see such degradation of society .

Fascinating video. I was wondering how big this house was and how were they able to keep warm inside..Im sure they had a few big generators going to provide them with electricity
