A stormy night near harbour shoals led to danger for pedestrians and vehicles as a snowmobile crossing failed amid low visibility. Herbert Gillett, his father John, and Austin Facey survived after the machine rode a submerged rock. The next day the craft was inspected and, with Ned Clarke, recovered to solid ice.
Readers are cautioned about the harbour passage as travellers report rough conditions with ice breaking up, allowing slips between partially clogged edges. At least one incident occurred during the week with a harmless ducking, underscoring the need for caution near the edge.
