Up here in Alaska we call the spring melt "Break-Up." Its when the puddles and lakes fill up with water and everything goes crazy on the roads. Potholes by the millions.

The most ugliest time of the year!

Hey, those ain't puddles Warptman!! I was expecting a little pothole here and there but you got downright lakes in town.

Those two guys driving, they are not driving on the lake are they? We get around two to three feet of ice on the lakes here but once you have standing water on the ice we don't drive on them. Well, most of us don't.

Holy cow, Warptman! Around here, we'd call that a disaster area!

Powerful images, my friend. Stay dry.

Cool shots of the snowmobiles!

Here in Wisconsin during the summer we have snowmobile races on some lakes. Needless to say a few sleds go down, specially around the turns, but they have them set up so gas and oil are contained. Maybe this summer I'll get around to taking some pictures.
