00:02 I've never experienced that in the 12 years
00:12 that I've been doing this.
00:13 We had an unusually cold but dry transition into winter.
00:18 So usually these lakes are all covered with snow
00:21 by the time the water freezes.
00:23 I think what was so special about this ice
00:27 is that because it's up in the Alpine,
00:29 it's up in the mountains,
00:31 the lake bottom doesn't have any vegetation
00:36 and it's rock instead of soil.
00:38 And so the water is really clear.
00:42 It reminded me of snorkeling
00:46 more than any other activity that I've done.
