 Dom dom dom Well good morning, we're just throw some breakfast into us a little bit more coffee and we're gonna head out and See if we can get those all our gear out of that big slush hole Don't know how it's gonna go. We got a young fella a couple camps down. It's pretty fired up give us a hand so We might send him out Give that sled a task We think old John Well, I think it's the first time I've ever had to leave my gear overnight. We'll see how the recovery mission goes Hopefully better than the ride home And I'm gonna be the support team up on high and dry land just telling them what to do You need an old guy like me just to boss people around What do you think who do you think? Oh boy, this is gonna be an adventure I think this is quite an adventure, you know, it's been a real good three days so far Fishing hasn't been super duper, but all the extra stuff and just seeing this countryside is worth every minute Pretty good. I mean we could be getting ladders and trying to get a machine out from under the ice So we're we're not that bad of shape. We're up on the cross that we should be able to get at them. We're topside. Yeah I've been worse shape. Yeah Better than that d6. Hey Rope action. I'll be reaches out. Yeah, I got a couple too. Oh, there's some rope there. I Got tow straps, but they're up to my truck. I got tow strap and some rope Boy, what a mountain of rope that is Yeah, it's my boost dragon ropes That's we're getting the big big boost out You got paddles Yeah, we had to get some more. Yeah, then we don't even need snow shoes. That's too bad. We could eat sit in the boat It's too bad. I didn't have that 15 foot square steering Grumman and little horse and a half that the use Yeah, we could use that we could use that little horse and a half Look at that. That's a that's that'll do it All right, we made it back out. There's our all our gears way out there You can kind of see it out in the middle And we're probably she's several hundred yards. I don't know how much rope he's got But I'm standing on top of a snow drift. I got slush in front of me And I got real bad behind me. I can't really go much further behind me Or I'm gonna have to feed of the corn to get out of it But I'm hoping he's got enough rope to get from here to there if not we'll find another way to do it But if he does I'm pretty sure I could pull both these out from here But I'm pretty sure I could run my sled all the way out to it and back I just don't know how bad it'd be in the slush and I don't want to take a risk of it Be honest with you burying this thing It's good. It definitely got softer than yesterday Well, I'm gonna snowshoe her out, but I'm even getting in the slush with my snowshoes Made it, huh? You don't have enough rope Yeah, yours probably pretty light ain't it? Yeah, take your time definitely slushed up more since last night Well, I made it out. It's pretty bad even with the snowshoes It's better with the snowshoes, but it ain't much better as you could see I broke through a lot But we didn't bring enough rope. I don't think this time We're gonna tie everything we got together and go see and then if we don't have enough rope Johnny's gonna run back My snowmobile is still it's in slush so And John's in slush so we still got another 150 feet in front of our snowmobiles till we actually get on dry land But we're gonna try it. We're gonna hook up We're even gonna double up these sleds so we don't have to come back out here and see if we can do that So Johnny's gonna bring his sled over and tie it to the back of mine. I Think we might as well add as much weight to this as possible make it harder. I Think one and done is a smart thing to try and we could try it Yeah Yeah If she goes an inch, she'll go a mile. I wish you'd hurry up and get that thing over here Don't do that Tie the rope to you. You know, he was a good fella. Yeah We'd have tied the rope to you too Yeah Yeah Be close couple that it'll be close Yep, yep, you're close enough. We just gotta turn the back in that one. Yeah Back her up in here if she will okay, hold on. I don't know yet Ain't had a chance to get it near it Looking like a no Unless we got some rope Hitch wouldn't quite fit on our pen on my Tongue there so No rope with us. We're making a I cut my shoestrings out. We're making a hitch Can't tie a knot tile on I'm gonna try to pack this down a little bit on this side because more than likely it's gonna be going left Yeah, I'm gonna run out of real estate I Got about Little over a hundred feet myself of good strong stuff And I got a little bit smaller diameter like half-inch rope that's probably strong enough But we're gonna go with the biggest that we got until we run out if we got a double up half inch We can double up half inch John's bringing some more rope. Hopefully we can connect the dots hopefully Hopefully we got enough to make two ends meet He ain't even got enough to make ends meet is what they always used to say Hopefully we got enough to make ends meet if we can make ends meet We're in the clear So I got my snowmobile It's in the slush, but it's like the driest slush if you could say that She's gonna spend hard with all this stretch, too So if we got extra rope that might get that might get me to dry land Well, I'd keep walking till you find that rope on the ground All right, that's what we were sure it right there. It was about Five foot and we got a lot of stretch, but we just couldn't gain any more. So One two three four five six. It's got six wraps on it We got different pound test on just about every rope we got So we're gonna find out where the weakest point is and And how much stretch we can get on this side of a gun But I don't know maybe we're making a mistake trying to get it all at once But we hooked Johnny's sled to mine, so we don't have to go back out there Into that slush hole, but we're gonna try it When there's a will there's a way This is just try number one If you mess up and it doesn't work guess what? Make a retry. There's different ways skin a cat All sorts of different ways skin a cat I wish I was another I Wish we had another hundred and fifty foot of rope because I got like a hundred foot of slush right here to get into it I know The weight's gonna get on me about 30 feet ahead We got it roped up and rigged I'm headed in we're gonna see if we can get this out of here in a one and done We hope so. We've got our moral support over here Yeah, Donnie's keeping the dog in so she doesn't drown out here in the slush Okay The moment we've been waiting for since we left the breakfast table Relax, we're gonna bring our gear home Let's hope oh No, oh no, oh No, no, we're not good keep going back and forth. It budged it It budged it He always said if it'll go an inch it'll go a mile This ain't good This is not good. I got faith in the old boy though Did that that didn't even move it? It just took the slack out We're gonna All right. Oh, yeah, no, he's doing it. Just right though Move it. Hey, you're going baby. Come on Bring it a daddy. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, give it some He's home free now look at this conglomeration As long as that sled don't bust off the back But boy, we're headed in the right direction keep going go go go go go Go Oh God go go go Go home free. Look at that Donnie. Look at that Donnie He's home free All right How do you shut that thing off Donnie? We did it. We did it first try. We did it First try Look at him. He's going home. Whoo Made it fellas. We made it out of there They didn't have much faith in this puddle jumper But once I jumped around that puddle she come out pretty good. There was a little bit of stretch in that rope I will admit that Holy cow. I think I had about 50 foot of stretch in that but we were over 500 feet out there We had rope after rope tied up and oh my god. Look at the mess we made out there Hopefully people can see that slush pocket and stay out of it Holy cow, I'd say But I'll tell you one thing guys I've been testing this sled for two years now trying to put it through the worst I could possibly put it through see what it's what it can't do and I still haven't found it yet That was a heck of a haul from a slush pocket I pulled all that through out of that slush pocket just pulling that rope alone Let alone those two sleds full of fishing gear so we got it now we got the work to do is to coil up the rope Yeah, don't out of here. Maybe do some fishing. I want to hear in the comments If you thought I was gonna be able to pop it out of that slush hole or not Yeah, we figured one sled weren't enough. We had to add some extra weight get to Yes That was exciting Down to the last of the last we had for ropes. I had a three eighths rope in there that I coiled up six times so That that made a day I guess that makes it two and a quarter. I think we're doing an eight. Oh, just pulling that rope But I pinned it upside down through the cotter pin I took out my pins there so it tell easier Don't John said Kurt's never gonna let him hear the end of this one So Kurt don't be afraid to send you on a message ask him Why he took us out in that slush hole? I still think the best way to get out of a slush hole like that is with a helicopter And if you can't use a helicopter use a plane But otherwise you're on your own. I mean, I don't If it got cold last night, we could have drove right out there probably with the sleds and the trails that we We used to get out of there once you get in slush like that, you know Take your time don't overheat take your jacket off if you need to and think it over Donnie, can you believe we got out of that mess? Let's go get into another one fellas
