ICE ROAD OFF THE ISLAND | Ice Fishing And Pond Hockey // EFRT S8 EP2

[@Lisa_B.-1989]

We have been watching all episodes to catch up to the winter stay. We absolutely love it. But wow, Caroline! You should put together a cookbook! It would be EPIC!

[@ColdGrapeDrink]

Fun tip - spray paint your pucks with glow in the dark paint! Makes for some great night hockey!

[@dorisprice9800]

My goodness, Londo could sure write an exciting book. Not many dogs has a life quite like his. 😊

[@debrabournes9267]

Hi guys you all have the biggest play ground in front of you all, you all can ski, pond hockey, ice fishing what an adventure, maybe you all can try some ice sculpting 🤔🤔

[@EFRT]

We should try that. Hope you have an amazing day!

[@bertschuh9501]

You are so right, get outside and be active to enjoy winter in Canada, Livin' the life!

[@helenemulvihill2997]

We did a thing called Cheeseburger run today, which is a 4 to 6 hour drive from Montgomery Texas through some beautiful backroads north and west lined with lots of ranches and cattle. The full loop circles within Sam Houston Forest . Our half-way point was a place called Yankee Tavern Grill, we stopped and had a LOT of cheeseburgers! There were about 40 jeeps in our group! The weather was in the high 70's. We really enjoyed coming home to enjoy your weekly episode, glad you found your way out and don't think we didn't catch your hints about 2023, we cant wait to see what you're going to do! xo

[@sway696]

Love this family. A family that plays together, stays together. 🙂 I don't get to watch KZbin often but when I do this is definitely where I go for smiles. Ya'll really make great videos with great quality. 👍🏻

[@EFRT]

You're the best! Thank you!

[@sway696]

@Epic Family Road Trip no, thank you! I appreciate all the effort you all put in.🙏🏻

[@budiharyono5179]

saya dari Indonesia, selalu suka dengan acara epic, tidak ada alasan untuk tidak suka melihat acara epic family road trip 👍👍👍

[@seasonsandsage392]

TIP FOR SMOOTH ICE SURFACE: recycling bucket or something similar, filled with hot boiling water, towel hanging out the back. drag along surface and refill as needed, will take care of all the bumps just like a zamboni would!

[@EFRT]

Awesome tip. Thanks we’ll try that.

[@onasledoverland]

I don't know. With all the fun stuff you all have out there, I was wondering when the Zamboni was going to come out. 😎. So fortunate that you sll have created such a beautiful lifestyle. I do envy the kinship among all of you. ❤️👨‍👩‍👧‍👧🙏

[@EFRT]

Haha. Yeah no Zamboni out here. Hope you have a wonderful day!

[@peterboudoures8998]

Now Peter’s gonna hop in the back and take a ride 😂

[@jahedberg]

You could see the childlike joy on your faces. Playing hockey on the lake, ice fishing, and the snow dogs! Those look like fun. Can they pull an inner tube?? 🤔 Oh, plus coffee over the fire on the lake and that throw everything in a bowl and cook it! Yum! Looks delicious! You have many blessings to count!

[@donnamatheson3021]

Hope you all had a good time on your various adventures; going to Mexico; visiting family. We are also getting snow in many of the southern areas from you. Nice to see you online for a Sunday viewing. ❤

[@kathrynmauro8673]

I'm not much of a cold person. I spent fifty-five years in Southern California and near the beach. Your family shows me how much pleasure can be enjoyed outdoors during the winter in a cold climate. The only thing you need is an LED lit hockey puck for night hockey. I look forward each week to your vlogg. Thank you for sharing your family, knowledge and adventures. Be safe and God Bless 🙏🙌🙏

[@tracerloenan8020]

Wow. What a view of life you give.

[@robert7365]

freut mich das Euer Abendteuer gut verlaufen ist, die Überquerung zum Ort.

[@Musicismylove888]

How does Landel's legs support the cold for so many hours. Hearing him cry makes me think he could be in pain. You certainly do have a ton of fun in the winter. There's never a dull moment. ❄☃️❄

[@tracythorn2918]

Those snow dogs look fun and useful. They wouldn't take up much space in a shed in summer as a snowmobile would. Maybe Lando can get some running miles in now! Thanks for another fun update!

[@TLOverlander]

And they're much faster than I thought they'd be! 👍

[@houstontexas4658]

How awesome is that, you have your own winter playground and the world is at your doorstep again!

[@Barbarahas10]

Always good to see another video Sunday!!! I know that you are doing well. I’m so happy that you can get off the island if you need to. Absolutely love the hockey rink and seeing you doing some ice fishing. Stay warm and safe, until we see you again!!!

[@matthewheinze1231]

I think Lando was more excited about getting a Jeep ride than y'all lol!!!! Peter and Dan did an excellent job on the ice rink, very cool! Caroline we need to see more of you! You always do such an amazing job on these videos!!! Carolyn that meal may have been simple, however it looked delicious and very warming!!!! Pete you always do a great job of explaining things to us "Southern" folks. Really like to hear more about the lake. Is it man made or natural. I know you don't want to disclose y'all's "hideaway", however some basic information is always interesting. Safe travels to Mexico, get warm and a tan! As always thanks so much for allowing us to see your world!!!! BTW in my part of the world below freezing and negative temps. are always joined by high winds. So While I agree with you Pete I find myself bundled up in the house hahaha!

[@juanitaespiricueta3863]

That's amazing as parents to sit out and enjoy a cup of coffee while you watch your grown sons skate around on that amazing iced in lake. WOW! Now that's a dream come true for sure♥

[@waltmoore3095]

Lake Trout lure. Looks like maybe Whitefish too. We're watching for a fish fry! Thanks for sharing.

[@Piperdreams]

Just loved this episode so much full of excitement!!! You’re right Pete Snr it can be easy to just hunker down in the cabin and not do to much outside. Gosh you guys really know how to take advantage of the iced up lake for your adventuring. So much fun to watch. Loved the pond hockey and ice fishing that was seriously awesome. Dan made me chuckle convincing his brother to hop in the bucket to test weight carrying capabilities! I, like Carol was nervous for you venturing out looking for a safe way to get to the other side - amazing accomplishment and well deserved celebration (Carol’s excitement was wonderful). Lando was just itching to go adventuring again - that gorgeous dog just never ceases to amaze me. Brilliant production as always Caroline and wonderful memories made with more to come. Big hugs from NZ ❤

[@tedpino5343]

So glad to see you’ve adapted to the northern Ontario winter and are having fun enjoying the experience. I hate to be a buzz kill but you realize in Ontario helmets are required while snowmobiling on public lands, snowmobile registration sticker and liability insurance is also required, although your northern location may exempt you from paying a fee. Just saying, you don’t know maybe watching your videos. Please continue to produce the great content.

[@domingolopez6394]

So beautiful on the lake

[@TLOverlander]

Northern Ontario is incredible! It's where I spend all my time in the Bronco 🤘

[@cliffrockadventures]

Terrific episode! Love the Snowdog machines. Looking forward to your upcoming winter adventures. Also, really enjoyed your book, Peter, "C.A.R.E. Leadership"...great principles for business and life.

[@Ontrail82]

Sweet!! I knew you guys would keep busy! Here in Minnesota we winter camp a lot! No reason for snow and cold to keep you inside! Winter opens up all kinds of new opportunities for fun! Glad to see you all enjoying it!

[@dorothyallen3614]

Y’all are having fun now ❤

[@n411xbushpilot]

Good to see the A team at work great video.

[@anniebanderet]

You could build an ice castle as they do in Quebec for the ice festival! What a fun time you are all having! Thank you for sharing it! Yay, groceries!! Glad you have access!

[@lynnclark4208]

Lando says, Look at me! I'm running on the water! 😊

[@DavGreg]

Glad all your planning, preparation and patience has finally come to fruition. Seeing the rink made me think of the one I played broom hockey on as a kid in Michigan many years ago.

[@ralphthomas5798]

Great video as usual. I was thinking what a great place for a small plane , skis in the winter and pontoons in the summer 😊

[@izzybooth-nuku7137]

Wow so beautiful and gorgeous, so much fun, thank you for sharing with us😊❤

[@laruedouglas7972]

That is so great to get to go out where ever 👍.

[@jillwonderly4841]

You all are living an Epic life! Thank you so much for sharing your life with us!

[@jonstefanko7854]

you guys have to make some stainless steel runners for those sleds or your gonna wear the bottoms off. i have experienced this on lake erie ice fishing far out and destroyed the sleds. i had to have them made at a local fab shop then screw them to the urithane runner kit otter offers. great vid i love the winter too

[@EFRT]

Yes, we are going to get on that. Thanks for the tip.

[@leayoung3014]

Awesome! You folks know how to live! We live at 7500 ft here in SWColorado and we don’t have as much fun as you all! Stay safe! 34:15

[@Whistler326]

Finally the LAKE is frozen and you have access to your JEEPs (Worseley & Vandi) ....loved it when the HORN startled Pete (lol) As for those Snow Hogs....they are an amazing machine for being in cottage country!!! Looking forward to seeing what fish you catch and cook....Carol is such an amazing cook!!! Warmest of regards, 1000 islands Ontario Canada!! P.s Get those Skates Pete....its a Cdn right of passage!!!

[@marianfrances4959]

Truly awesome! 👍🇨🇦😎❄❄❄❄📷

[@hooligantimes9132]

[@CanadianDiggersChannel]

Going up to my cabins near Parry sound on Monday with two of my boys. Haven't been there since the big snowstorm at Xmas. Nice to see your family all together and having a winter blast. Can't wait to go out on our pond and go to our Island.

[@rachelmyers7104]

Precious memories with your family ❤️

[@ilovedrpepper1195]

Such a great time!! I love all the safety first.

[@susannebjorkbjork8205]

Love watching you guys! Hugs from northern Sweden (Åre)

[@KAStodgell]

Fabulous. Lando was ok with the ice today! I love basic yummy meals. Looks perfect! Agree on the winter comment!

[@maryquinn1496]

We use to sled and skate all the time in the winter. Brings back good memories watching.

[@nativetexson]

WooHoo! This was great! Brought back fun memories of pond hockey on the lake behind the house in northern New England. Cheers-

[@EFRT]

Glad you enjoyed it.

[@Hawberry]

I love your Cabin content. I am just across the water (ice) on Manitoulin Island and live and love this lifestyle.

[@EFRT]

Thanks neighbour. Glad you are enjoying the videos.

[@kathimeadows7869]

What wonderful place for all of you! Great stay at the cabin.

[@cozycottagehideaway]

What a great way to start a Sunday morning! Love your videos. Happy New Year!

[@EFRT]

Happy new year!

[@pursuitforadventure]

[@EFRT]

[@elwoodtaylor1092]

having fun in the Canadian winter wonder land

[@richardthomas1743]

I hope that all is going well , I love your videos.

[@EFRT]

Thank you!

[@jeffwells330]

be sure to pick up some ice skating muscles when you get your skates out of storage. poor fellow suffering Mexico this time of year. joy to you.

[@jimeldridge5619]

So nice to watch you all. Glad things are freezing up. I totally admire your respect for the "safe way" to do things. On that, I have bit of hard learned knowledge to share. Please find or make a blade guard for tou auger. Whenever it's not touching the ice, put the guard on. Also, when walking with the auger, carry it with the blades behind you. When you fall on the ice, you tend to fall on you back side. This throws the blade up and then down in you. Not good. When loading the auger on the sled, again, blades behind you. If the sled bounces, the blade is safe and you're safe. I've been on the wrong end of a flying auger. Good luck out there.

[@richardthomas1743]

HEY! Good morning and thumbs UP to you!

[@pty1pty2]

This was sooo much fun to watch🙂

[@EFRT]

So glad you enjoyed the video. Have a wonderful day.

[@oldmanoldtruck]

Great episode! I loved the comedy bit the boys did about riding in the sled behind the snow dog! Too funny.

[@alekseynoga5942]

Love the content! Keep it up guys

[@catherinerague1190]

Great videography, Caroline. I like the music. I hope you are out doing fun stuff as well! We had a duck pond in upstate NY, my Dad flooded it every winter and created a great hockey rink, too. This brings back great memories.

[@theroadhome_Liz_Summers]

So darn cool ... all of it!! I have serious Snow Dog envy :)

[@curtishadley4114]

You guys need a simple L-shaped "story stick" with clear measurements on it to insert in your test holes and hook on the bottom edge of the ice for checking your depths - rather than putting your hands in freezing water!

[@appeltaart47]

Very exciting to watch. It will be great to explore everything over the Ice. Have a great week.

[@Julied319]

Love this series! So beautiful there & fun to watch!

[@EFRT]

Thank you. Glad you’re enjoying the series. Have a wonderful day!

[@lilivicordero8077]

Awesome winter wonderland!!

[@christopherharris6005]

Awesome video as always. I've always wanted to explore Canada maybe one day I'll get the chance to go see all the amazing place y'all been to.

[@TsarTrail]

Beautiful video. Love the way you are using the frozen lake and testing it for travel.

[@mooleesttooo329]

a Big greeting, that is too much snow, wishing you are well, I watch your videos and I love them, keep it up 👍🏼

[@EFRT]

Thank you very much!

[@tinkstinyadventures]

Living vicariously through y'all! 💕 So awesome...

[@NorthernRetreat]

Ice up finally here, let the games begin! 👍

[@fionadavies7217]

I see a perfect lifestyle, great video thank you.

[@chrissolomon8868]

Wow,thats one of the most adventurous and exciting videos I have seen of you guys together...you guys rock. ..love you

[@dedwin8930]

Has to be a good feeling to hit mainland again! Suggestion, maybe reflective strips or ? on the white snowdogs, My son has a Honda water pump and makes a water slide at Lake Powell on a slope into the lake using plastic sheeting.

[@kearnsey64]

Awesome news folks!! Can't wait!

[@TLOverlander]

Snow Dogs... I prefer motorized snow chariot's 🤘

[@charlesvincett84]

This channel needs a two thumbs up button!

[@regmcguire5582]

Not sure I understand the Sno Dogg appeal. We also have a water access cottage, which we use all winter, and with neighbours who live there. We use snowmobiles with toboggans to transport stuff, mostly the Pelican ones. Snowmobiles are way faster,much more comfortable and haul more too… at some point we will stay at our place through ice in, looks like fun.

[@michelletennant9164]

So peaceful

[@bjgtrev1970]

That looks like so much fun . Such a great experience for you all .love ❤❤❤❤

[@EFRT]

Thank you 🤗

[@jamesmcdonald927]
