Yup Great Ice is a nice weekend long event with many things to do. Most of it is free but there are some events that have a small charge such as the sled dog rides and the flapjack breakfast. The proceeds go to the NH Fire Department, NH historical society and Grand Isle Rescue. The Trek out to Knight Island is enjoyed by hundreds of people. It is 2 miles each way and free hot chocolate is given out by the Knight Island State Park Ranger. People ski, ice skate and walk out there. Quite a sight to see. On the Great Ice Friday night there is always a bonfire made by old Christmas trees just off the North Hero House pier. This year they had a great fireworks display too. It will happen again next year in mid February ice permitting. Check it out there is a lot to see and do.
