Walking on ice: Light & serious tips from Channel 2 & OPP

ORILLIA/MUSKOKA — It’s winter — what did you think?

Maybe we’ve been spoiled so far this “winter.”

But we’re making up for that late start with all this snow.

And ice.

Here’s a couple of videos on the latter and safety.

The first is from Sgt. Steve Miles of the OPP’s Central Region Safety unit, on pressure cracks.

It was posted Feb. 7 on Lake Couchiching, just north of Orillia.

And the second, for something a little lighter — and more humorous — are seven “Tips on how to walk on ice.”

It’s a spoof by the crew at WGN Channel 9 in Chicago, as the two news anchors talk about – and act out –  the graphic posted by the city’s CBS affiliate Channel 2.
