Nothing says Minnesota like a nice drive across the lake. Here in Plymouth this is no exception! Medicine Lake has ice roads plowed all over the place which means any old beater car can challenge the tundra and if you've got the capabilities to forge through the deep snow you've got no limits! Many take their cars on the lake for ice fishing purposes. Ice fishing isn't my cup of tea per se but throwing donuts and power slides always has been, and the frozen lake is like a blank canvas waiting for you to roll a few tight ones.
My rule for lake driving is wait till I've seen some other crazy guy drive across the lake first (preferably in a 1 ton diesel), because people die every year when their cars go thru the ice, so know your underwater car safety precautions. (and dont be the last one on the ice in march, thats dicey too, but you knew that).

Just know this if you play with fire you can get burned... Safety Pays in Many ways.
Nice stuff, Danny. That truck looks a lot like it's on our lake... Now we need to see the conclusion.
ReplyDeleteThanks Galen! Haha maybe I need to make a post about how to pull trucks out of lakes.
