Flat Lake, Alaska
Photos of vehicles that fell through the ice

Aside from vehicles, people sometimes fall through the ice unassisted when the fates have decided they need to cool off.


Carolyn fell through 50 feet in front of the Haggard cabin, and survived. 11/19/07 - Carolyn Haggard photo
LT, "Is the hole frozen over now?"
Carolyn, "I don't know, and I'm not all that anxious to find out." 


17-yr old drove a Grand Am onto the ice from North Shore campground on 11/16/07. That's the trunk showing (he was rescued).
- Carolyn Haggard report and photo


11/16/07 3" of ice was not enough for this Grand Am 100 feet out from the North shore Campground.

Another truck down!
This one was on the the West End of Big Lake ... and was the 2nd vehicle to go thru this spot ... caused by ice fishermen drilling holes directly in the road.  Happy Hooker got it out around 9pm Monday (4/16/07).

Did the occupants have to rip through the roof to get out?


The channels are fairly shallow. Note the windscreens on the snowmachines behind this one.
