With Enough Ice And Enough Patience, People Can Walk Across One Of The Great Lakes In A Weekend

from Cool Weird Awesome with Brady Carlson · host Brady Carlson

Today in 1978, writer Dave Voelker set off on a hike across frozen Lake Erie. Experienced hikers can definitely cover that much ground in a weekend, but a frozen Great Lake can be a little more complicated than a hiking trail. Plus: today in 1969, a rough moment for John Edward Kilty of Manchester, England, showing why it’s always good to listen closely in court. Walking on water: Tales of perilous treks across frozen Lake Erie to Canada (Erie Times-News)I Walked Across Lake Erie — Alone (Cleveland Magazine)Kilty as charged (Weird Universe)Hike on over to our Patreon page and back this show for just $1 a month
