Ice is unavoidable during winter on the Champlain Islands. Surrounded on all sides by an icy expanse, islanders embrace this seasonal terrain — as a place to walk the dog, to skate and to fish.
One North Hero resident sees trucks of ice fishermen driving out onto the lake and wants to know: How do they know when it's safe?
Thanks to David Erich, of North Hero, for the great question.
