He often just wanders up there to lie on the planks that cover half the loft. Not sure why, but maybe it's to escape from his bossy, crazy sisters!
Although Lucy is a regular visitor to the loft area too. On the weekend, it was (still is) SO freakin' cold (-40!) that I went upstairs to lie on the futon mattress. Soon after, 5 dogs followed me up there and tried to join me on the futon. The loft is nice and toasty... :)
For a dog who has never really been up stairs, and is quite gangly, he's learning fast! Lookit him navigate those stairs!!
Mellow Lucy and the stairs: Ahm, do I go up? Go down? Stand in the same spot halfway up the stairs for hours??
George thinks: screw that, I'm staying on this comfy couch! Now get me a milkbone.
So it may look like we did nothing this weekend, and that is pretty much true. Although, I also forgot my camera at work, otherwise I would have had pics of the futon that is now downstairs - and in my "living room" area. I also set up a wardrobe and woohoo! I now have a place to put all my winter gear! Wow, how the cabin has cleared out.
We managed to go on short walks at -35, down to the river which has lots of snow and is in no immediate danger of creating the menacing and annoying overflow. That's one bonus of the freakishly cold weather. Ok, so it's not so "freakish" - this is the Yukon! There is a cold week coming up, so there will be a lot of hibernating happening I think. :)

Very curious what the dimension on the lumber for your stairs are. The pad is conventional lumber, but the sides look very unconventional.
What size are they?
You guys ask all the hard technical questions! I think Gerry built the sides of the stairs from the logs, but I have no idea of the size.
I can take a more detailed photo if you want.
George has the most precious face, the "bend to my every need, monkey, because I am cute and adorable". LOL I get that face a lot and cave in too.
I think it's time for a video tour of the cabin, Stacie! It's looking awesome! And the loft dwelling dogs are tooooo funny...what freakheads!!! :D
Jen - you have nailed her! She is SO like that, I am totally her slave, in her mind!
Sue - video tour, well, let me clean the place up first! AND! Get a floor in the loft. Then you'll get a tour... :)
Loft-dwellers, I like it!
