Lake Erie Shove Ice

A local chap explained that the ice is "shove" ice created as it is pushed into the shoreline.
The lump on the right is the size of a large car.
The landscape was also odd to walk over. The ice is simultaneously slippy and sharp with  the occasional hole covered with powdered snow. Crossing the artic or antarctic on similar terrain at -20C must be hard work.
