We should all have at least 50' of good rope in our sleds. Just in case. I have 100'. If we all have a rope and any one one of us goes thru, we all can help.
As of this week the PFD goes back in the sled too. It's just one of those square throw cushins, but it could save a life.
Planks are a funny thing. I have access to scrap pieces of lumber because of my work. Over the past 5 years or so I have brought at least 30 planks to the ice, used them to get on the ice, had others use them to get on the ice, and then have some stupid take the plank before I get off the ice. Am I supposed to drag my plank around all day?
I doubt any one on this board would do that, but it chaps me off.
