[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1779023, member: 24027"] I use an old pick axe. The flat end is great for scooping out the chunks. 'Bout 5 years ago I was breaking ice in the west 80 pond when one of my retained heifers popped me in the behind and I went sliding across the pond like a dang hockey puck - still clutching my pick axe. Had to do the crab-walk/slug-slide back to the bank, but with zero traction, ended up sticking my boot in the hole I cut, just to get up 'n out. My bibs were completely frozen by the time I made it back to the house. There may have been profanities!!! That spring, we had a well drilled. [/QUOTE]
