Winter is a great time to get out and enjoy a host of winter sports.  Everything from ice fishing to winter camping get you out of the house and into the crisp fresh air.  Many of these winter activities involve frozen bodies of water.  It doesn't matter if your riding on a snowmobile, gliding along on skies, or crunching by on snowshoes, crossing ice covered water ways need to hold your full respect.  It can happen in an instant and without any warning.  You could find yourself plunging into the frigid water below the ices surface.   Now this doesn't have to be a death sentence, however depending on your location and how well you are prepared for such an event the end result can vary greatly. Glen Hooper from Northwest Ontario is an avid winter enthusiast and a writer for winter trekking.com.  He spends a lot of time traversing the rugged Canadian terrain in both summer and winter.  The prospect of falling through the ice is something he takes very seriously and has put a lot of forethought into what he needs to survive such and ordeal.  Join me as I visit with Glen on what he has readied to aid in increasing his survival skills after a plunge into frigid waters.
