    Default Frozen lakes and ponds

    What is it that draws people to walk out onto frozen ponds and lakes? I've never seen a frozen body of water and ever thought about walking out onto it. I'd be afraid of falling through.

    Ice fishing?

    I grew up in Minnesota.. Literally drove my car across the lake to school in the winter because it shaved off 3 miles.

    Used to love ice skating just after the lake froze and before the snow came, you can skate along and see the bottom/weeds/fish and whatever else below you. Pretty cool.

    Done two ice rescues in my life. One good, one bad. I am the same way, I would not walk out on unknown ice without PPE.

    I want to walk on every frozen pond I see. I don't though.

    Had a friend walk on a frozen pond. Let's just say he walked home drenched.
