Ok here goes . The cabin cave has some flaws like the tarps, they have a bad tedence to dry rot . This is not good for a long term shelter, I woud advise that you use a pond liner it might be a little more expensive ,but would last longer. It may save your gear inside.
Now the log choice not exactly great without water sealer . pines rot very fast without something to protect them, they may only last three -5 yrs. In the original post they tell you to cover them in sealer, do it .
The yurt and the adobe aren't good ideas for visibility reasons the CC takes care of this.
You would be better off if you would put a cast iron cook stove in the CC for diff. reasons . The first that come to mind is that if you come in from hunting in freezing , snowing weather, you would need to get dry and warm fast so that hypotherma dosen't sit in . The stove would also give you a better cooking surfice also.
Be sure to plant native trees for cover . there will be people that may notice the difference passing close by in a SHTF sit. you may welcome visitors at your own risk. I wouldnt . this may include local hunters that are just trying to make just like you. Me a couldn't blame them if they noticed and tried to take a peek.so hideing it on a hill is a very good idea.
All for now. to me the CC is a good idea. P.S. my knowledge of wood come from my grandfather and his father son so forth. they are all master carpenters. I am not yet still have many more homes to build before i can claim that title.
