In this episode we arrive at the cabin after 2 years away and begin a one year journey off grid at the island. We make all of the necessary upgrades to the property to allow us to live there through a cold Canadian winter. We install a solar power system and build an insulated shed to house it. we will be unable to leave the island for 4 to 5 weeks during the freeze up period, so we need to have adequate firewood, propane and food on hand to get us safely through. Join us on an EPIC family Adventure.

You are correct. Lot of money and sponsors for this off grid life. It was beautiful but with all those modern technologies it's more like a 1 year camping in the wilderness. I was expecting to see if and how they were able to survive in the middle of nature, away of the modern life support with only what the nature is giving to you.... It was more like going to the grandpa's on vacation into the woods with your trunk filled of goodies, modern big boys toys and many other fancy things. Normal people not even heard about that.

To clean up rusted cast iron scrape off heavy rust. Sorry folks using steel scrub pads leaves minute particles in iron pores.. For finishing minute rust cut large potato in half and rub into pan. As potato wears cut back a slice. You can rinse with just a moist cloth, and your pan will blacken and is then ready for seasoning. Only season old timey way with slow even heat and pork belly or slab bacon chunks. I use smoked side pork but in youth some used BEAR fat. Bear stinks like all get out but works. We used bear far oils on leather boots.

Fantastic documentary. I lived through your experiences vicariously this morning while watching from my warm paradise, Hawaii, and feel richer than ever after seeing your beautiful family and wonderfully fulfilling adventures. Much Aloha to my northern brethren.

Thoroughly enjoyed your detailed video on spending an entire winter off grid. I would say your excellent planning in preparation for this journey proved to be a huge success. Wonderful to see the whole family working together. Living on a continent that has no idea of what a winter is all about in Canada… definitely an excellent way of explaining that !! Durban SA 🇿🇦

Anybody could go out and buy all they need to get through the winter. It would have been a better test to do out and hunt, fish and grow food to see if y’all could make it through the winter. Y’all bought fire wood and all. Only work was hauling all the supplies on the island. But hey good job nonetheless!!!

This interlude with your family's experiences is breathtaking! It is the best possible scenario and it is magical seeing you and your family reaping the rewards of you all have built and spreading love to friends , family and others! and also protecting your dog and feeding the birds. Belive me, I'm from South of Brazil, near Argentina where snows and we have wooden stoves with the wind protector to dispel the smoke.Visit Gramado, RGS, Brazil.Bariloche Argentina is as grand as Otawa. Country and capital. Thank you for this captivating dream! God Bless!
