I'm looking to buy a portable ice house. Right now I'm leaning toward a tent style shelter (HT Deluxe Polar Shelter). It's got good size (6x6), it's very light and compact (which is good since I don't have a truck to haul a really large house out there), and it's cheaper ($100). My big concern is it's durability. Does anyone have any experience with such a house? I'm mostly worried about having the floor freeze to the ice and tearing when I try to pull it up. Also, is this house going to blow around easily? Any information, suggestions, or advice would be a great help and much appreciated. Thanks a lot.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
