A fun thing to do in February is to drive the ice road across Lake Superior from Bayfield to Madeline Island. I usually drive with my window down in case I have to bail out of a sinking car. I know the ice depth is tested daily, but the experience elevates my heart rate and saves money.
Forrest Howk, a local Bayfield student, researched historical records back to the early 1800's and found the ice-over days are getting fewer and fewer. You can read the article in the Duluth News Tribune.
