Our friends at FOCA published an Ice Safety blog post
This time each year, snowmobilers are reminded that no ice can be considered 100 per cent safe to ride on with a snowmobile.
It
is especially true this winter when ice is forming earlier than usual
in many areas and may look safe, but is not yet thick or strong enough.
This ice warning also applies during any prolonged period of thaw or
rain, and late in the season after ice begins to deteriorate from milder
temperatures.
