Ice Dining

2013 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

A group of american tourists set up a table on an ice floe. The ice floe was blown away from the shore during dinner and was 33 feet away. Fortunately one was able to leap to the coast to get help.

Unbelievable. I wonder how we would have learned about them if that one person hadn't managed to scramble to shore. Thanks, Dwight!
