Thank you! It was an awesomely clear day. And in spite of the cold (20°F/-7C), there were quite a few people walking along the bluff behind me and to my right, and in the 8"/20cm of snow on the beach and covering the thick ice. There's no way to tell where the beach ends and the lake begins.
It's actually a little early for the lake to be this frozen. Being over 240 miles long, 60 miles wide, and averaging about 100 feet deep (390 km x 100 km x 30 meters), it's usually not this frozen over till around the end of January or into February, and there have been years where it never froze.
