Geocache Description:


Please read the cache page in its entirety, it’s not the same old pablum from previous years.  This year it has that and maybe something else.

Welcome to the 8th phase of "Freezin' for no reason" event.

Note the terrain rating.  This as always, is meant to be a little tougher to get to and may not be for everyone.  Make sure you log a will attend or put this on your watchlist in case changes are made in the coming weeks.  This year, we are planning to be back on the ice.

This year is the eight year of the event!

Safety

Note the parking location.  It is the closest location to access the event from land.  There are many places to access the lake, however, I would NOT suggest driving onto the lake as the ice may not be thick enough to support the weight of a vehicle.  I also suggest using the buddy system, I would never go out on the ice by myself, and you shouldn't either.  Some climbing may be necessary to cross some ice shoves.  Don't worry, they usually aren't that big, but again be careful.

 

Now with all that said... if you find yourself bored at the above-mentioned time and date and have literally, nothing better to do, why not go "Freezin' for no reason"?  Or if you're just not smart enough to stay home where its warm and comfy, meet me out on the lake to discuss your latest caching adventures... like walking on water.  

Common sense would dictate that you may encounter rough jagged edges, steep drops, cold weather, slippery conditions, strong winds, and possibly a polar bear (it's technically possible).

 

A quick announcement for those making the trek this year.

First, safety.  As always there is an inherent danger on the ice and getting to the meeting location.

Keep an eye on this page for updates...
