Ice Hike: 4kms out on Lake Erie, ON

(download)

Lake Erie has been frozen for quite a while. My Dad and Uncle have been ice fishing up a storm, apparently it has been a good year. (Over 150 perch so far. What they catch is mostly cleaned, frozen and stored for our yearly family fish fry on Good Friday.)

If there is a place for a long, quiet, undisturbed walk it is out on the ice. Overcast, the temperature hovered around 0*C. Bismarck got to eat whatever minnows he found frozen in the ice.
