That looked like a gorgeous location. Too bad about your misfortune, but that's part of the reason I like your content, it's honest and realistic. Good thing you aborted the mission. Stay safe my friend. 👌👍
I appreciate you recognizing my content being "non sugar coated" One of my reasons for putting out content is I was tired of watching pre planned and choreographed content.
Take care Daryl✌️
Not a great Winter for us Marc especially where lakes are concerned. You made the safe and right decision to get out of there before something bad happened. Nice location Brother 😉 🍻
Very true! But I'm ok with it, being on global warming😆 Its important to understand when to pull the pin on it👍
Thanks brother🍻
I feel bad for you Marc. All of that work and high expectations of a good outing, turning to crap. You sure did get a workout though. Your sixth sense told you to get out of Dodge, and I'm glad you did. Glad you and Lexie are safe!
I did have high expectations and yes it sure went to shits! But we move on and be grateful years of experience thought me well!
Thanks John✌️
Wow that was unexpected. Imaging turning real cold and freezing everything solid to the lake. This winter was a no show for most .
OMG that would have been a total disaster! Thank god it wrmed up and I saved my gear! But I have to say both my pant legs were blocks of ice and 2 soakers coming off that lake!
Thanks Steve✌️
Damn Marc !! Good call getting out of there for the night ! I've only had to hike back to the truck once because of Mother Nature ! 11:30 at night and gale force winds hit while I was solo in a Hemlock forest. Went back to camp in the morning and there was a tree laying right beside the tent !
On another note, I agree with you on the warmth of those coats !! Was a licensed HD Mechanic for 30 years before "retiring" and those things saved my bacon a few times working out in sub zero temps !
Great video as always my friend !!
👍👍🌲🌲🌲🇨🇦🍻
Falling trees are a game over situation! One has to know when being a tuff guy isn't going to accomplish anything!
Thanks Tim✌️
A valuable lesson learned i would say. You took a bad situation and turned it into something good 👍
Well done my friend still looked like a blast
.That place is spectacular, you are good at preparing camps my friend. The big problem is when nature does not behave according to what meteorological services predict and there is a great risk of risking life in places as extreme as those. You are very brave friend. BLESSINGS TO YOU.
My years in the wilderness has taught me to not ignore the signs, that would be disastrous!
Thanks Coyote✌️
Camo and high vis is all the rage these days, haha. It definitely looked like a lot of work, brother. I know you're a guy who likes to push through things, but probably good that you listened to your gut. Thanks for taking us along.
There was no point ignoring what was going on around me! My outing was destroyed but I'm here to talk the tale👍
Thanks John✌️
Howdy Marc- too bad things went south on you. Still a beautiful area. You are so right on doing winter camping. You gotta be prepared for a lot Take care and God bless
These kinds of outings remind me why I don't do them anymore😆
Thanks Paul✌️
Sure did have a beauty of a day to start out! Always best to be safe than sorry in the long run! Good on you to make the call for both you and the pup!
There was no denying what was going on and the safe way is the only way!
Thanks for coming ✌️
Hello friend thumb up 👍😊 what a beautiful adventures 😊💐🥰🤗💖❤️
Thanks for coming along✌️
Lots of snow weight on the lake pushing down on that ice. It certainly ruined a good night. Main thing is your skills and knowledge kicked in and delt with it. Pretty cool video.
Thanks Kenny it is my years in the outdoors that saved my bacon out there👍
Well, Marc, you dodged a bullet! That could have gone either way! When water comes up onto the ice it can be difficult to know if it is solid ice beneath or if it has become open water. Good call in getting the basics packed up and hiking out to the truck. I may have told this story but years ago in Nova Scotia, I went ice fishing in a salt water bay fed by a river. The bay freezes out about a mile or so then turns soft and then open water. There were a lot of people out there that day and the ice was heavy enough to drive vehicles onto it. I had a little Chevy Chevette and I parked it on the ice far from where the ice fishing was taking place. I left it on solid ice with no water showing. At almost dark, I returned to the car and found it sitting in a puddle of water about 30 feet on all sides of the car. The water on top of the ice was about 3 inches deep. I made the decision to walk slowly to the car, get in, open all the windows and drive it off the ice. It was scary and I would not want to be out there again. That was the last time I went ice fishing in that spot, but fished some in BC since. When water comes up like that it's time to bail and quick! Glad you are here to tell the tale. Too bad about your light. Next summer it'll come up on a fishing rod! LOL Be careful out there!!
I can go on for ever about winter outings and ice fishing mishaps. I have gone through the ice 7 times in my life. Walking, snow machine, pickup trucks Bombardier track machine, you name it! Thats why I don't do a lot of winter activities anymore. Even snow shoeing in the woods can land you in deep shit!
Thanks for sharing Craig🍻
@@OpenAirOutdoorsIce of any kind deserves that we tread upon it with caution. I'm not a big fan of being on it anymore. That experience you just had must have been scary. I'm glad you got out of there safely. It was still a spectacular wilderness spot and the video of the frozen lake surrounded by pristine forest is very cool. I also very much enjoyed the story of your light falling through into the lake. I wonder if it's still ON? Be well and take care, Marc.
A Valuable lesson learned, I would say. You took a bad situation and turned it into something good. well done my friend and it still looked like fun to me.
The tragedy was averted and in the end that's all that matters!
Thanks shiny✌️
Great video Marc - this winter has been crazy with fluctuating temperatures - I’m glad you made the call to hit the truck or your night would have been miserable. It’s funny, I also put an extra jacket on my dog when needed… gotta care for our dogs! Love it - thank you brother and cheers
This has been the warmest weather in my recollection. Yes the dogs come first😆 Sometimes it don't pay to tuff it out!
Thanks Ed✌️
Beautiful spot! You made the right call getting back to the truck for the night. Mother nature just loves messing with peoples plans!
Mother Nature certainly had her way! No point fighting it right!
Thanks Andy✌️
Yikes! A nasty experience but important you shared this Marc. Lesser experienced folks would be in deep caca in same situation. Glad you and Lexi were okay. Looks like the same thing would have happened in an unheated tent but seeing the tilted stove tipped you off.
The water creaping up was so gradual I never payed attention until the stove moved! It wasnt just water from the hole ither, the entire area was flooding! But all was ok in the end👍
Thanks Mark✌️
Great video , glad you went back to the truck . Some beautiful drone footage !!
Thanks Del, we came out in one peice and thats all that counts👍
Hey Marc, great video and good advise for sure. We have had very little snow in Thunder Bay (8" all winter), lake and creeks not safe at all. Lake Superior has very little ice on it. The next 2 weeks now highs in daytime above 0c. Rain today (Sunday).
Take care, stay safe my friend...Fred
Hey Fred good to see you again! We had one good storm and thats it! The ice was crap this year, I feel bad for the sledders! Caution is the lesson here!
Thanks for coming out✌️
Good call! That would not have been a good situation. That's a cool fishing rig!
For sure! I knew i had to get out regadless of the weather or time of night!
Thank for coming out ✌️
An adventure indeed. Glad you are safe.
Thank you✌️
Had to do what you had to do Marc :) have heard of people passing away in idling vehicles, but two runs ain't gonna kill ya, enjoyed
Your right! People who run there there vehicles for hours waiting for help stuck in the snow have died! Clearing the snow around the tailpipe area is crutial!
Thanks for coming out Jason✌️
How's she goin'? Well this trip went south eh!! It looked like such a nice day when you started out too. But lakes are bad for the layers of ice like that. The water layer between the ice layers never freezes. Good plan that you left and spent the night in the truck!! Nice drone footage though Marc. That sure was a nice spot!! Glad you made out OK. Take 'er easy!!
You know it Mike! That layered ice is not to be trusted! I made it out ok and this is a good example of how things can take a turn for the worse!
Thanks Mike✌️
Good times!🤝🏻
Despite some hardships!
Take care RL✌️
Enjoyed the trip bud cheers
Glad you enjoyed it Jason, take care✌️
Glad it worked out ok except for the flashlight. Nobody want to go for a swim in the middle of the night. Hopefully the tent didnt get too frozen into the ice
The light is easily replaced, I was very fortunate temperatures didn't drop and the sun came out warming things up. The tent froze once pulled out of the water, my gear was really heavy coming out with frozen water stuck to everything. It could have been a terrible situation!
Thanks Jared✌️
@@OpenAirOutdoors glad you got it out even if it was a struggke
re-occurring viewer, sounds like something you might need a cream for ;) Slushy minnow bag makes it easier to grab them? sweet cot! RIP the light. Oh man that would been horrible to wake up in the middle of the night, what a mess. Definitely the right call. So what do you think happened, was it just like the tides or?
The minnows don't stand a chance in slush😆 This is actually a common occurrence, when the ice is not thick and solid the weight of the snow can force the ice down causing water to seep up through cracks flooding the ice surface. But with a thick blanket of snow you get slush!
Thanks for coming out EC✌️
