Driving down Route 25 past Squam Lake in Holderness today, I noticed about 13 vehicles all parked along the old wood highway fence there, about 1/4-mile north of the Squam Lakes Assoc, where there's easy access to the Big Squam ice.
13-vehicles is like a big group around here, so's I made a U-turn and went back to see what's happening.
Squam ice skate sailing & kiting: Way out on the ice there's ice skaters with personal, hand held sail rigs and sail kites that are moving along with the wind, out there.Today seems like a perfect day with sunshine, clear skies, temp-25, and winds 10-20, and clean smooth ice with a small dusting of left over snow blowing about the ice

The ice sailors/kiters at Squam today were equipped with pfd's, helmets, elbow and knee pads, and one had on hockey shoulder pads.
13-cars all involved with this seems like a big number. Usually, there's like maybe two or three vehicles at that spot, doing the ice sailing from there.
