Default Re: What the heck are the DOING!!!!!

These guys were riding on Brash ice, to give you a size comparison the flow in the last picture is about 30 feet across and about 20 times the size of my van, 9/Th's of the flow is also under water and the whole river is moving at about 6 mph. Anyone of the flows if they hit you is enough to basically crush you. I heard on the radio that there were over 90 people involved in setting up and executing this training excerise. Lucky timing for us to catch them doing the excerise while we were going for a walk along the boardwalk on the us side having a 601 black.

At least they were not ice fishing.
