When the ramps are frozen, be sure
to have the proper tools to clear the ice and sweep any debris
away. Also, be sure to salt the ramp area before and after you
pull your trailer out. Make sure to stop as soon as your trailer
clears the water so that all the water drains back into the
lake or river and not on the ramp incline or parking area where
it can re-freeze and create a hazard for others. Always be sure
you will be able to get your boat out before you put it in the
water in icy conditions. Never back your vehicle or trailer
on to ice such as what is pictured above. 1/4/2002
