Note the date changed!!!!
Welcome to another edition of the annual “Freezin’ for no reason” event. In the past we had the option to build a campfire at the coords, this year we will not.
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. Also note the new location, we’ll be near Calumet County Park, just not on land.
Safety first. 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. The lake froze over later than in years past and 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 will be necessary crossing some ice shoves. Don’t worry, they 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 waking 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).
