A pretty cold day.

Falling Through Ice & How To Self Rescue

There are a number of things I hope to never have happen to me.  Some of those though, I would actually like to try given the opportunity.  The difference is choice.

I don’t really ever want to fall through the ice.  But after watching a video of someone self rescuing, I got to thinking.  While I don’t want to do this, should it happen, I know I would rather it not be my first time trying the technique…   So, time to take a walk out onto some thin ice.

Some days are better for swimming than others. This one? Not so much…
  1. Kit Badger, I’m thinking you should qualify to be a card carrying member of the Polar Bear Club by now! So many times before doing the fire starting series, I don’t think I could have managed to get past the first dunking!

    You made an excellent example of how to recover from a potentially dangerous situation, though. Stay Frosty my friend…

    1. Haha, I better get that card laminated… …for the next dip. Actually, I’m glad winter is passing. Looking forward to some warm weather.

      Thanks for the kind words Dwayne.
