Spending the winter in an off-the-grid cabin in the Maine woods

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • March 7, 2021

Wendy Weiger has opted to live in isolation this winter in a one-room cabin with no electricity and no indoor plumbing. “I needed to shift from the town way of thinking to the woods way of thinking,” Weiger said. “When a storm puts you at risk, forget about the to-do list. Respect nature. It was kind of a wild introduction to winter.”
