Ice Road!

This is the house that Rob took a picture of this summer that we called "Lake House" in the cards we make. This was taken from the window of the truck.
The ice road in Yellowknife.
Me pointing to the crack in the ice! Stopped on the ice.
The cracks in the ice.
Shows you how wide the road is.
This is by far one of the coolest things we have done here so far. We went to Yellowknife yesterday and drove out on the lake. Poor mom was scared to death but handled it like a trooper.

I freaked out the first time I went across the Bay here on a skidoo in November ... now it's just normal. Always have to go through that initial "panic attack" before it seems like it's an everyday occurrence. But, I would also be right there freaking out as well .... especially after seeing those cracks in the ice!

How fast can you go? I guess they wouldn't "salt" the roads for traction eh? Pretty awesome, it's cool looking through that kind of ice, at the lakes here you can almost see the bottom. Gives me the chills, even though it's 6 million feet deep.

lol I love your "pointing" to the ice jig. :)
