I built this cabin in colorado from trees that were on my property. Cut them down, stacked and let the logs dry for three years.  With a chainsaw and a few other tools i built this cabin from my own trees that i harvested on my property.  It took about two months to get the frame and logs up. As you can see its still work in progress. You can see 4 of the colorado  14teeners from this cabin.   It sits at 10,850 feet and the veiws are breath taking. This cabin has been around for 17 years. It's not the nices cabin but, its paid for.
