TRINITY'S 1st Annual 2010/2011 Icing/ Anchoring Challenge

[DetectorGuy]

Well Nate and I finished the ice diving season today (as far as the 1st Annual 2010/2011 Icing/ Anchoring Challenge goes anyway). We started the challenge with the big blizzard on 12-11-10 and ended it with 57 degrees and sunshine on 3-19-11. The ice was still thick as it was but it was candle ice and very grainy. We tried all day to be miserable, and no matter how we tried, we just couldn't make it happen. We tried diving with out a shelter on the second hole (we found out isn't for us). We tried making the hole 3' x 3' x 3' to see what we were missing out on (turns out We like the 4' hole better). We tried pushing the ice blocks under (probably won't do that again in the near future). We set up both holes near creeks that dump into Green Lake and the visibility was very poor at best. So as hard as we tried to be miserable, it was a comfortable, fun, stress-free day.

So now are you ready for the [glow=red,2,300][/glow]? Today Nate found 4 anchors and I found 7 anchors.
