How about the news story of the Lowell man that drowned when he crashed thru the ice snowmobiling on Winnipesauke this weekend?
It seems that he and his "buddies" where drinking and snowmobiling on the lake.
I'm sorry for the guy's family, but that is one of the stupidest things (in a long list of stupid things) that I've heard in some time.
I won't even venture out on the ice until we've had a decent freeze, and these guys go cruising on one of the LAST lakes to freeze in New Hampshire.
That would be like heading out on Long pond in Plymouth or Whachusett, or Quabbin waterways. It's just not safe enough yet on foot, let alone on a snowmobile. I was watching the story and couldn't believe it.
For those of us here who like the hard water, it's only reinforces the safety issue even more.
