The Adventures of the Wilderness Family Collection

The Adventures of the Wilderness Family is a 1975 adventure film directed by Stewart Raffill. There were two sequels, Further Adventures of the Wilderness Family (1978) and Mountain Family Robinson (1979). Skip Robinson moves from Los Angeles to the remote wilderness with his wife Pat and their two children, Jenny and Toby. The family sells all their belongings to build a new home in the woods far away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. On the edge of a lake, they build a large log cabin next to their Uncle Jake's old log cabin.
