How do you get to the island when the ice is thin?

It is that time of year, winter has certainly started.  The most common question our guests ask about living on the island is,  "How do you get back and forth when the ice is too thin for walking?"  Answer, we keep a boating channel open.  The current snow build up prevents the ice from getting thicker, fast.  In the mean time we just keep breaking the channel open throughout the day, fun stuff.  Have a great Thanksgiving.
