Is it wrong to plow a path to your shack so you can get to it with your wheeler. (GSL)

My .02. You are not going to make any friends with the sled users. You know, the ones ice fishermen say come too close to their set-ups. The snow banks freeze become man-made pressure ridges. Also, the plowed path can fill up with water if we get rain or a warm up. I know a lot of people do it...h2l

Now if you are saying Plowing the lake, as in PLOWING THE LAKE, could you start over where we are fishing...

I seen that post. With the weather forecasted for the next couple days, conditions should only get better hopefully. As for plowing to the shack I want to get out there too but I'm not sure if I want to be the one that creates a dangerous situation. praying no one gets hurt that's all

Not saying I want to plow.....I don't even have a plow or a shack, but I do have a wheeler.. Just know that some people do plow it.
