On thin ice: Stockholm's long-distance skaters brave the elements - SilverKris
"Sweden’s second-largest lake, where conditions can change suddenly and dramatically: experienced skaters recount being 20km out when a wind shift set a whole ice sheet drifting, forcing a last-second 1.5m jump onto solid shore ice with only seconds to spare before 15m of open water appeared—an illustration of both the thrill and the danger of long-distance natural-ice skating on large lakes." - Richard Orange
