It took me about half an hour to get out, will speed the vid up as fast as i can and upload it, but it was basicly backwards and forwards till i broke up enough of the ice to get through

I couldn't believe it broke to be honest the ice was 2" thick in the middle.

I have an old winch i plan on fitting in the next few days, going to bolt it behind the front plate so its hidden then just hinge the front plate, be handy to get me out of holes like that.

heres a vid from the day before, at about 7 mins it you can see how icy its been up there,
