If you've ever been out on a frozen lake for a length of time you quickly realize why they build those shacks.

unbelievable. i'm assuming the water is so cold that it keeps the ice hard right below the structure?

I've done ice racing and some of those guys bring their motorhomes out there, plus full size trailers with multiple cars.

My dad had a full size Dodge Ram diesel pickup with a trailer with three race cars on it and had no issue whatsoever parking it on the ice. The ice is usually a couple feet thick at a minimum. They have a full-size snowplow that has to weigh 25000 lbs that clears the track at some of the venues...

What's weird is when you heard it snapping due to frost/extreme cold. You think the bottom is going to drop out from under you.
