PERFECT Skating on Windy Arm, Tagish Lake, Yukon

[Spammmz]

I have too know, do you have an area you know is safe?, or just risk it and skate around the whole thing?

@Spammmz We skated on the whole thing! This was following an extended cold snap and although it may look dangerous, the ice is almost a foot thick. You could easily drive a vehicle on ice that thick.

@lhawk91 ahhh wow thats ridiculous..all we have in toronto are city owned rinks, and they might even close them due to a strike :(. thanks for your timely response!. and just know me and all my boys are so jealous!

Its amazing. Some shots look like they are water skiing not skating!

Damn!! Although most of you would probably be jealous of me living in a warm, beautiful, Caribbean Island (St. Lucia); this is to me beyond incredible!! However I would probably quickly come to my senses as soon as that icy blast hit me square in the face!!!

I loved the "perpetual sliding piece of ice".

That would be soooo fun! How thick is this ice?

[lhawk91]
