Ice safety guidelines for walking and snowmobile travel

Satie warns that ice thickness varies with water currents and danger rises with speed. He advises 3 to 4 inches for single file pedestrians, 6 inches for slow snowmobiles, and 8 inches for a small car, plus wearing warm clothing and carrying flotation aids. Do not travel alone, inform others of plans, and call for help if breached. Rescuers should lie flat to distribute weight and extend a reach to the victim, then transport all water-exposed individuals to hospital.
