Ice Roads ... From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaIce roads or ice bridges are frozen structures formed over bays, inlets, rivers or lake surfaces. Ice roads are simply seasonal occurrences that facilitate transportation to and from areas without permanent roads, and are commonly seen in isolated regions in Canada's north and Alaska's bush. Where possible, ice roads may be intentionally built across frozen lakes, which ironically provide the best surface for driving on in winter. Completely flat, and devoid of trees, rocks and other obstacles, the lakes are easier to clear a path across than bare land. The roads built from Yellowknife to Port Radium by John Denison, an early pioneer of ice roads in the Canadian Arctic 1950s-1970s, were almost entirely plowed across frozen lakes, with a short overland portage between the shoreline of one lake and the beginning of the next.
