The text appears to be a detailed account of a person, presumably named Alexey, preparing for a harsh winter in a remote location. The account describes various activities related to preparing a house on skis, dealing with the cold, and making necessary repairs.
Alexey mentions preparing the house for extremely low temperatures, with a focus on the use of snowshoes and drags for transportation. He also describes the process of checking a treehouse, which is not designed for severe frosts. He mentions that the treehouse is in good condition, but the roof is slightly bent and one edge has sagged due to strong winds. The house on skis is ready in 15 minutes, and the main task remaining is to remove the roof's wet heavy snow.
In terms of heating, Alexey uses a portable stove. He mentions the advantages of using a flint, which doesn't freeze, get wet, and is easy to get a spark out of even with frozen hands. He also mentions the use of soups for clearing snow. He prepares cutlets in tomato sauce with vegetables and cheese in a cast iron pan.
The text also mentions the preparation of kitchen utensils from wood, such as a wooden fork with two prongs and a small wooden spatula. Alexey also discusses the use of spruce branches and birch bark for kindling. He mentions the importance of checking the condition of the ropes that hold the main support pole.
The account concludes with Alexey preparing for a night out in the cold, mentioning the importance of positioning himself correctly in the sleeping bag and preparing some chopped firewood in case he freezes.
