Pro-snowboarder, Mike Basich, gives a tiny house tour of his self-built 225 square foot labor of love in the middle of his 40 acre snow covered property near Truckee, CA – and tells us how being closer to nature gives him his most creative decisions.
In this episode of Going Off Grid, Laura Ling investigates how over 180,000 Americans each year are deciding to live completely disconnected from the modern world in pursuit of a simpler, more sustainable lifestyle.

Check out this video on YouTube: beautifull work…
I would like to know what are the songs used in the background of the video
!
elle est superbe ,et quel patience pour l’avoir faite^^ bravo ^^
amazing
This is one of the coolest “Tiny Builds” I have seen!!
Love this!
Minecraft :D
Amazing! I’ve never seen someone living life to the fullest like him!!
nope! I need that amount of space just for my books. I don’t have much else
but my books are important.
This is my dream now. I would just make the house a tiny bit bigger so that
a small family could fit in 🙂 He’s right – A bigger house and a fancier
car only means more stress and time.
What if you are trying to get laid but you need to drop a deuce? Open a
window and it will be 10 degrees in that thing. No decent looking woman
would live there long. Just long enough to take half his money so her and
her new boytoy could live well in the city in a 3000sqft loft.
#goingoffgrid
amazing
What is the music from 1:48 forward to about 2:40 ???
Nice ambient tune 😉
Keep up the good work.
What an inspiration you are, all these natural materials brought inside…
this rocks…literally! Thank you for being you~
Yeah Mike! So rad.
I have to say, I was tearing up during the video because this is, in a way,
my dream. I want to live off grid in a tiny house in a nice field
somewhere. I’ve been realizing that I just need less stuff. It weighs me
down. I’m probably never going to have money like he does, but I want that
kind of independence.
Love it
here feels like you’re in sync with what’s actually happend ღ…*
Living with the dreams. Thats cool dude!
9:40 very cool geode blended quite well!
Y’all are buying this story? There is no way he lives there full time. I’m
sure he owns 100 different snowboards, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, trucks,
etc. He obviously must own a warehouse where he services all that stuff.
That stuff requires all different types of gear and clothing. Think about
it. He must have a regular house somewhere with a big tool shed, garage,
big closets, etc. Regular homes nearby are less expensive than this home. I
know that area. Otherwise, he would need 20 storage units, which would be
extra lame. Further, they picked the most perfect weather to do the
filming. Everything is super clean and Disney-looking. This is a commercial
for tiny houses.
Fellow Americans, if you’re watching this video, you’re already in the
right direction!
Decrease water usage, energy usage, increase efficiency in all aspects of
your life.
If our cities allowed easy bicycle transit, I’m sure many would enjoy the
ride to work rather than dread it.
Fight the materialism!

Love your house, Tony from Belfast
She has a very lovely voice.
The only downside I see is having to poop in the cold, lol. This house is
amazing!
A Snowboarder’s Unbelievable Tiny House: https://youtu.be/sadOfmkTtpw
Genial
How small of a home could you comfortably live in? What if it was in the
middle of no where? Would you try it?
Oh my gosh, that is the home I want. I mean, I’d build it differently, to
my tastes, but 40 acres in the mountain wilderness would be a dream come
true.
I am so freaking envy right now
huh… so im not the only one who wanted a small house with amazing
technology and self improvement utilities…
That is nice and good for him. He found himself and he’s happy. Some people
need to go off grid to look and feel the world in a different fresh view. I
wish I could go off grid for a couple of months and explore my surroundings
and even beyond it.
Wow this place leaves a person breathless. He did well with his successful
career and built a stunning dream. Most off grid places pale to this
existence. I know since we live in the mountains in our own off grid home
that we built and are still working on. BUT not even close to this. We had
to plan for years, we had to be debt free, prepare everything from our heat
source to water source to gardening and winter management. Im wondering..i
watched and didn’t see any food pantry, or wood storage..tools..garden? Is
this just a off grid cabin or a year round house he lives in? Would like to
see a update in the spring and summer and see more of the workings of his
off grid place. seems pretty simple but there doesn’t seem to be a food
source or other things like we have and prepare for on our homestead
Wow I’m australian and I had no clue there’s snow in California. Wow.
What’s the song called starting at 1:50? It sounds really nice!
He’s got everything he needs. What a great place, and what an achievement
to have built all that the way he did.
Dude that house is nicer than i expected

“Living off the grid” is pretty easy when you’re a millionaire…
+TheAdultChild101 Dont cry.. you can do the same with only a little ammount
of money.. or work hard!:D
+hungaryargo I just think it’s a little dis-ingenious for a millionaire to
be portrayed as ‘living off the grid’ when he has a shit-load of toys lying
around already. I was homeless for three years, I know what ‘off the grid’
truly means.
It’s awesome that this dude found his happiness and is at peace with
himself! Wish to meet you one day!
Nice build!
I would love a list of all the songs used in this video… but if anyone
knows ANY of the songs, please tell me!
Just found this youtube channel today, lovely camera work and interesting
stories. Hope you guys can keep on putting out videos of such high quality
in the future!
Off the grid with a hot tub and chairlift. That’ll work.

A Snowboarder’s Unbelievable Tiny House
A part from a few *very* negative people, something that, frankly, can be
found anywhere, the response to this seem to be very positive! Not my cup
of tea, but a lot of people would love this life style.
That’s so awesome
A Snowboarder’s Unbelievable Tiny House: https://youtu.be/sadOfmkTtpw
So much bullshit. 40 acre property, ski lift, polished wood floors, huge
panoramicwindows. the “off the grid” factor here is hugely offset by the
manufacturing costs of this house. don’t get me wrong, I LOVE this
property, it looks terrific, and I’d love to live there. but to act as
though it’s some ecologically beneficial piece of property… ahahahaha,
cmon.
Fucking sweet house….m/ hail satan m/ lol
Hey Seeker! Who’s the maker and what is the name of that laid back song
starting at 1:48?
Beautiful area, property, house, idea, dog….
But living the dream is very cliche imo.
We all dream differently, and being able to manifest an unconventional
nature-based idea we have doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a good idea for us.
For example, why are we isolating ourselves from people on top of a
mountain? Are we hiding from friend, family, the possibility of
love/intimacy, responsibilities, etc?
Are we doing something short-term that will set us back or put us off
course longer-term?
Does it actually serve our deepest desires; or are we imposing a vision
that may serve some interests but ignore other essential needs/desires?
Are we avoiding a structured, engaged life that demands more, challenges us
more, but leaves us feeling more content, plugged-in, and part of a
community at the end of the day?
I’m not talking about this story in particular, more as a general pondering
on what it means to live “the” dream.
It takes real self-honesty, emotional intelligence, and reflection to
figure out what our hearts actually want, as opposed to what the mind
thinks the heart wants.
This is my style. Seriously. Amanda, you in?
Living the dream.
Courageous man.
Mountain people are so badass! This is from the backyard of where I grew up
in Grass Valley.
Thank you for sharing …what a dream come true..oxox
This is awesome! but a lot of people don’t have access to land and it’s
too expensive.
And how can a person own the Earth?
How does he get food for him and his dog?
It’s great! Would love to build something similar
Cool house, but the fact that it’s in Cali just makes me dread the property
taxes he has to pay on all that land.
oidk, this might be more about the location than the size of the house.
the guy has 40 acres, after all. It’s not like he’s living small. this is
completely outrageous, so amazing. I would love to live like this…
albeit, with a few more rooms…
Awesome!!!
The interviewer is so inauthentic :/
Easily one of the coolest and most inspiring things I’ve seen involving
tiny houses and general pioneering….
anyone know the instrumental played at 1:48
I so would love this neat little pad!
Professional snowboarder Mike Basich showed of his tiny house handiwork in
a video interview with “Going Off Grid” and the mountain cabin is awesome.
Thank you for sharing! lovely to see the love and life you share with your
dog!
Must Watch! It may be a “Tiny House” , but it comes with it’s own
chairlift!

Any one know the song at 1:49??
I was curious about the legality of a house with no toilet, but I found
something even *more* interesting about the legal status of this house; it
exists in a legal limbo. If you go to the Nevada County website about
buildings codes (
http://www.mynevadacounty.com/nc/countycounsel/Pages/County-Codes.aspx )
(3-5-16) they say they allow small owner-built houses as long as they
comply with California building codes (25-1-8). *However* the codes they
refer to *don’t exist*. (
https://govt.westlaw.com/calregs/Browse/Home/California/CaliforniaCodeofRegulations?guid=I0F3B9270D45311DEB97CF67CD0B99467&originationContext=documenttoc&transitionType=Default&contextData=%28sc.Default%29
) There is no chapter 8 which defines the legality of owner-built houses.
I think The PENTAGRAMS give away the real purpose of this un-holy place.
A Temple to SATAN!!!!! …………SCREEEAM!
Or not.
Yew! Yeah Mikey!
This video is misleading he doesn’t live there full time. this is his
vacation getaway cabin. Ok lets say he does live there full time he has
family that lives close by where he stores his stuff does laundry
etc…where he spends a lot of time at as well. Geee i’ll drop $140,000 for
40 acres of land then build a shoe box w no bathroom or fridge. If a person
had $140,000 they COULD own a few acres, nice big cabin & have enough
wind,solar,generator power to have plenty of electric for the creature
comforts.
The thing is I’m sure he lives in & owns a regular house and this is his
get away cabin. Plus 40 acres of land. Do the math 40 X $3,500 per acres. I
can’t see someone dropping $140,000 for land then building a tiny cabin w
no bathroom to live full time in. There is a lot to this story they left
out.
Second Song : Waiting silently : The Futures.
I got sick & lost my 2 homes in the city (1 was rental property). I wanted
to years ago buy a couple acres of land and make a nice off grid
cabin/homestead . So that I didn’t have a 30 yr mortgage & I could have the
land & cabin paid off & owned outright in say 5 yrs. The problem was solar
panels were very expensive back then & I was young didn’t have the
knowledge or information I do now. Plus I was stupid for worrying about
what people would think. like girls thinking I was a hippie weirdo like
what 1969chargerRtSe is talking about. If I had done it, it would of been
paid off long before I got sick & I wouldn’t of lost everything own -still
would have the land-cabin & place to live. But of course u don’t think/plan
your’e going to get a life altering illness.
Tiny? On whose standard? Let me guess… American?

Unless a guy is rich or has a high social status like this guy no woman
would ever go there. Hell the host herself is only barely interested on a
professional level. On a personal level she is horrified.
Hell the only reason he is even being interviewed is because he is a
snowboarding champion. If he were a simple man who built this he would be
getting called creepy and have names like the Unibomber.
So lets cut the shit, the only reason you are fawning over him is because
of his social status.
Any guy who lives his life obsessed by what women think of his
hobbies/lifestyle is a pathetic fucking beta loser. Live life by your own
terms. The house is awesome, and he made it. Why should he give a fuck
about what women think of it? Are we their puppets or something?
The ignorance in this one is comical. Thanks for the entertainment.
+ThatGuyBradley haha what a sophisticated answer form you!:) keep talking
like this and the women will follow ahahah
+1969ChargerRTSE I agree with the original post. I’ll add that we are
seeing the finished sausage, not the making of the sausage. Having an
engineering background, I’d prefer to see a story about the sausage making.
But that story would appeal to about 1% of the population, definitely not
to most of the viewers.
+1969ChargerRTSE negative nancy over here has got some sand in her vagina.
Uhm what would you do with 40 acres of top quality mountain space? This
house is F-ing amazing! #mikebasich http://buff.ly/1MYczU3
Songs?
imagine if he put a solar setup.
It looks as if he has some solar panels.
Love!
A few years ago I moved from a big city, into a tiny house..planted fruit
trees and got rid of all debt. It’s an amazing feeling to realize ‘stuff
and possessions’ don’t make you happy… but freedom from it does.
Soon, after college, I hope to do it all again.. except maybe somewhere
tropical :)
+iinRez U might be right-I think it’s a cool little getaway. I just find
the video a little irritating by how misleading they are in wanting you to
think he gave up a conventional lifestyle & material items to live in his
tiny house full time. Like he’s some wisdom filled guru who lives on a
mountain top.(not saying he’s a jerk or anything) If u think this house is
cool, which it is, check out earth ship homes in Taos NM and architect mike
reynolds.
Tropical?
Jest how tropycahl Mon?
+Ynot Eroifid Not sure yet.. maybe Hawaii. Fiji, Thailand, the south,
tropical.. got any suggestions? (there was a ‘translation’ option on your
post. G must not speak Cajun..lol)
Wow!!… Awesome place to live,
+Dawn I Its Jamaican! Lol!
It’s very inconvenient even if you can cook.
Notice that they are weiring socks, not shoes, when inside or a balcony.
Like normal people do. I don’t get why some people use shoes inside!
EPA goes Ape shit over people like that. Screw em.
Yet, many, many people always bad mouthed those who live in mobile homes!!
I know many folks who have trailers they bought with cash, and moved out
away from the city!! So, this is just Hipster verions of trailer livers,
or trailer park people!! Just live debt free! You don’t have to go TINY,
to have a house free and clear!
That attention to detail, the fact that everything meets up 3:02 at his
birthday is just amazing!
Whoa what a life choice. Pro_Snowboarder #MikeBasich.#tinyhouse #snowboarder
in Sierra Nevada. He also has his very own chair lift.
I love the design of the place. But I would like that extra 200sq ft. for
an actual bathroom and bedroom.
Too bad we don’t have any snow here in Tahoe
Now that is a tiny home of your dreams! Seems much larger than 225!
Nice place. Though it would be a bit cramped with a wife and kids.
Bruh, you forgot the Jergens on your bed.
I wonder how Mike was able to power his lift, and heat his hot tub,
certainly not from that small solar panel.
Wood for the hot tub.
okay, that explains the hot tub, what about the lift? Even a tiny lift
would have to be at least 5 hp. you need an acre size solar panel for that.
+Blaze Paroni probably got a diesel engine to power the lift?
He can still have a propane fridge, a propane camper shower that sprays and
use a solar panel car battery charger for an inverter for a satellite DSL
and laptop for net. Off the grid yes, Amish no
WOW!! I just need my 40 acres…LOL but seriously, this guy did it right!!
Bravo!! <3 He does a great job of explaining the ...see I can't even
describe it! LOL Getting back to Earth...stepping out of Time...it's a more
challenging life in some ways, but so much more rewarding <3

WOW WOW WOW Very cool place, great great away but, too lonely for me!
A Snowboarder’s Unbelievable Tiny House
Love it!
That’s an awesome place he’s got!
Usually you see celebs with big mansions and luxury sports cars and you
become envious of their possessions. This envy I feel now feels a little
healthier. I am envious of his lifestyle as opposed to his possessions
(well, besides the little house). I remember feeling in sync with the Earth
as a kid because I was always out in the woods exploring, pretending to be
out surviving on my own and building a “home” with branches and stuff. I
felt free. It was just me and the Earth out there. There was a beautiful
telepathic connection. Now, my life is run by a clock, surrounded by people
racing from one thing to the next, and I am lucky to have sunlight touch my
skin during the week. This video is inspiring. I realize I have been
dreaming of the wrong things this whole time. And this, to a lesser extent
than he has here, seems to be a more realistic goal to strive for. To
reclaim my soul that I left out in those woods as a kid.
+Jeff Venom that’s just his get away vacation cabin this video is very
misleading. he doesn’t live there full time.
+Mike Brink – Oh, that’s not as cool then lol. Thanks for the info.
+Jeff Venom Yeah, there is no way he can live there full time after being
accustomed to things. He must own 100 different snowboards, dirt bikes,
snowmobiles, trucks, etc. He must own a huge garage where he services all
that stuff. That stuff requires all different types of gear and clothing.
He must have a regular house somewhere with a big tool shed, garage, big
closets, etc. Regular homes nearby are less expensive than this home. I
know that area. Otherwise, he would need 20 storage units, which would be
extra lame.
+Jake McCoy is right but I am going to add this The video is misleading and
I no longer think what this guy is doing is cool. But what I thought was
going on, living off the grid, still appeals to me.
Whats the song at 1:48????
This is what true happiness consists of… Being able to do what you love…no worries, no debts, optimizing your time on this Earth! #LiveLoveLife

and the artist of that laid back, smooth jazzy sounding song!
no luck yet though!
An outhouse or a composting toilet would be a great addition. :)
I think there is an outhouse . . . there was an outhouse-looking door on
the bottom level.
+Tricia Cate
I saw the door with the crescent moon and there was some kind of toilet set
somewhere else. If they mentioned either, I missed it. Love the small
house though.
Way to go!!!
i want to do something like this in the tropical, maybe hawaii or
something, somewhere far away from people
Worth the ~6mins. Not for everyone but I totally appreciate his thoughtfulness and respect what he's done here.
#tinyhouse
Can’t help admire people who can live on less!
I’d imagine that guy is pretty far down the list for a google fiber rollout
Interesting video and pretty cabin but tons of unanswered questions.. how
do you get there? do you have to hike in for X number of miles or can you
drive up to it? Bathroom. You gotta go somewhere. Is there an outhouse or
do you just..? There’s times when you’re sick a bathroom would be hugely
appreciated. Groceries.. you gotta eat.. would like to see a little more
indepth story.

What an inspiring story. This guy seems to have it all figured out.
I have to say i would like to have both. A normal sized home in the city

Yeah Mike! So rad.
And they fucked after filming….
Very beautiful.
You know, I think we (humans) have spent thousands of years evolving along
side the natural world. Then in the last two hundred years or so, human
technology rocketed and outraced evolution. So, we are instinctively ‘cave
men’ thrust into a high tech world. With this in mind, you can understand
why our true nature shines best when we are living in sync with nature. It
feels like going home.
Living the dream
This is absolutely incredible, but it must get really lonely out there :/
This guy's house is both amazing and beautiful!
That’s cool, but the loneliness would kill me!
Yeah +Jonny Boehlke, same here! I would want at least one roommate …
besides the dog … meaning the house would be a bit larger. ;P
Haha, yeah!
Wow! I don’t think I would want a house that small! Too claustrophobic!!!
And the shower no thanks! 🙂
Wow, I think I would like a slightly larger version of that house 🙂 I like
the window and all the stone work. It’s very cozy. 🙂

Wait, he doesn’t have a toilet? That seems highly inconvenient… to not
have such a basic utility.
And does he ever get too much snow around his house? Even if he had a small
snow plough, he would probably still need to shovel some of it away.
It’s part of the adventure.
Life can be about convenience but only because we’re raised that way.
Toilets (and showers, note his no-waste shower) are a huge waste of
resources and, although most wouldn’t want to go without because of their
habits, there are alternatives like composing and incinerating toilets that
do better for the world and function similarly. This guy obviously puts
self-sufficiency and respect for the world above convenience.
Pro-snowboarder Mike Basich trades in his fame and money from his
competition wins to build a crazy 225 square foot home in the #California
mountains! http://skr.cm/1FJoCCb

Whoa, this would be an amazing getaway spot!
I could live there. It looks amazing!!!
We would too 🙂
That mini cabin is just sexy. Love it
Mike, you are purely livin’ the dream ! So much respect and admiration.
Thanks for sharing, Seeker. Wow !
We are so jealous of his amazing tiny home!
+Seeker Stories I believe envious is the word you are looking for. Jealous
wouldnt make much sense at all used this way. Btw it would have been cool
to get a rough estimate of the total cost of the project as well. I lve
near Truckee, CA, and while it sits on 40 acres, im wondering the house,
property, chairlift, and any other bills Mike has. Other than my nitpicking
awesome video. Mr. Basich was raised well by his parents. He is very wise
beyond his years and an inspiration for a young guy like myself. Thanks to
mike and your crew for sharing. Ill see to it that this video goes viral
within the next 48 hours. 🙂 -T
+Travis Thoeni Dude I live near Truckee as well, we should see if he is on
air bnb. This dude is on the right path. As your question about costs it
sounds like he has taken a smart route with his earnings from snow boarding
and probably has solid connections in the snow world. His photo skills are
on point also, so I would bet he makes good money with that. Living a good
exhistance.
Love the “off the grid” stuff!
so awesome.
Keep the awesome videos coming this stories are so inspiring
Many more to come! Thanks for watching
