Aluminum extension ladder. It's not uncommon on flood control lake to have to cross a few feet of open water to get on ice. Some guys use a plank but if a ladder is available it is the more stable option.
If you walk out on a plank, hope the guy what brung it don't take it home before you come off.If you bring a plank, hope someone doesn't need it more than you..........Both instances will result in a wet foot, trust me.
When I use a plank to get on, I take it with me wherever I go..Might have to get off the ice in a different spot too.. <°)))>{
