Friday was enjoyable but yesterday afternoon was spooky...dark clouds, 50 degree temps, and flowing water on top of the ice from the snow that had melted and also from some nearby pressure ridges. The water below us was only about 3' deep as we were near the shore, but the conditions still gave you the heebie-jeebies....
Ice on top of any surface gives me the heebie-jeebies. Unless I know there is Earth 2" below, I'm good One day I 'may' venture on to ice that has earth 3" below, just not ready for that... yet.
