Marty Raney's Lifestyle with Wife Mollee Roestel and Children
Marty Raney started his journey of mountain guide in 1974 when he started his adventure in Southeast Alaska. According to Discovery, Raney's first house was a floating logging camp on Prince of Wales Island.
Before starting the austere life in Alaska, he got married to wife Mollee Roestel in 1974. The family suffered several problems there, such as power cut, water scarcity, plumbing, or heat issues. However, the family learned to live in drastic situations away from almost all of the modern technologies.
Marty and his wife Mollee have given birth to four children; daughters Misty Raney and Melanee Raney, and sons Matthew Raney and Miles Raney. Their all four kids grew up doing stonework, log work, and extracting natural building materials from the land.
Discovery wrote the children peeled logs, quarried stone, learned the value of hard work and old-world craftsmanship during their childhood. They also learned hunting which is essential for their survival in the rare part of the USA.
All the Raney family are expert in hunting, but Matthew is the specialist. He is the one who loves to hunt throughout the year to keep the family's freezers full. As per the sources, Matt brought over 1000 lbs of sheep, caribou, moose, and fish in the summer of 2015 alone.
Marty's children Matt and Misty Raney have already got married. Matt is recently married to his wife Katie while daughter Misty is married to Maciah Bilodeau with whom she has a 5-year-old son.
