locating anchor
Over the past 70 years we have secured a plastic bottle (usually Rv anti-freeze bottle) to the anchor rode and have never lost an anchor. This has included a raft and various number of moorings. We do think a couple of the anchors may have been dragged by the ice a couple of times. And don't forget to maintain the anchor rode periodically as needed.
BTW, we are in a cove and 65+ years ago the crib dock on shore was totaled by the ice, then again, 5-10 years ago the aluminium crank up was damage by wind/ice. Point is, the water is always on the move.
