Cool pix! Those ice boats appear to powered with an airplane engine. You might be able to identify Pic 2 if you can read the name of the Fsh and Chips place. Ookpik | ||

I would've guessed up around Anchor Bay based on the look of the buildings. | ||

I agree with Ct4438. I seem to remember the pilings near shore like they are when going ice fishing in the 70's and 80's. Sure looks like the ice shanty village just a different era. | ||

I remember my dad driving out onto the lake to do some ice fishing. I could hear the ice crack and it scared the bejesus out of me. Still, we brought home some great perch. Look for a pic with a green 1953 Mercury 4 door sedan, that might be us. I also remember some car racing out there on the ice. | ||

Good work, all. Now that we have the location, I do recall being out there a time or two as a youngster. My Dad was big on fishing, and this is one place that was favored buy many a fisherman. Renees is a place I tipped a few as a young adult. Thanks Fareastsider. | ||
