To battle, this problem, Walk on Ice by Traction Magic came into existence. It is not an ice melt but a product you can carry everywhere. It is a traction-building product comprising 7 nationally sourced geo crystals that look like ordinary mud. But it is not. These crystals act as absorbers and grippers that help create instant traction on slippery surfaces, making walking easy. You will not have to worry about how thick of ice do you need to walk on with Walk on Ice.
But, How Thick Of Ice Do You Need To Walk On?
If you are an outdoor enthusiast, there is always an itch to step out and enjoy the weather or indulge in some activity. But winter brings its set of challenges which must be dealt with before you set out for the day.
You must remember ice is never 100% safe to walk. It can be 2 to 3 feet thick in one place and less in some others. It takes three to four days of below-zero-degree temperature for ice to be safe to walk on. Snow-covered ice can make it difficult for you to tread and may get slippery.
If the ice is less than 4 inches thick, do not walk on it. It is the number one reason for injuries. Above 4 inches, you can walk safely, go ice fishing or even ice skating! 8 to 12 inches of ice is safe for cars to drive and will not cause damage.
But to be safe, it is best always to carry a product to help you build traction for walking on ice. New or clear ice is the safest to walk, especially if it is milky, white, or cloudy; you must double-check the measurements.
Ice with slush is unsafe to walk on as there are more chances of slipping. There is a high chance of falling if debris is on the ice or snow.
What Can You Do?
- Carry a traction-building agent to help you walk safely.
- Walk with a stick if the ice is less dense.
- Carry a winter emergency kit with you at all times.
