So sad. Were schools closed up there today? Snow day?

Why on earth do people continue to foolishly ride these machines on lakes when you're not sure of the thickness?

This is heartbreaking🙁. My condolences to the families ❤️.

BAN SNOWMOBILES! snowmobilecontrolnow that’s how this works right🙄

Was it smart to do this ?

So sad. Wondering if a pressure crack opened up water or if they were near an area of the lake that never completely freezes solid and why they were riding so late at night on a lake
