To treat hypothermia, replace wet clothing with dry clothing and immediately transport the victim to a hospital.Go to the victim as a last resort, but do this by forming a human chain where rescuers lie on the ice with each person holding the feet of the person in front. If that’s not possible, throw the victim a life jacket, empty water jug or other buoyant object. Rescue attempts should employ a long pole, board, rope, blanket or snowmobile suit. If someone breaks through the ice, call 911 immediately.Carry ice picks or a set of screwdrivers to pull yourself back on the ice if you fall through.Wear a personal flotation device and carry a cell phone.However, early in the winter it’s a good idea to double these figures to be safe: 4 inches for a group walking single file 6 inches for a snowmobile or all-terrain vehicle 8-12 inches for an automobile and 12-15 inches for a pickup/truck. The following minimums are recommended for travel on clear-blue lake ice formed under ideal conditions.Daily temperature changes cause ice to expand and contract, affecting its strength.Anglers should drill test holes as they make their way out on the lake, and an ice chisel should be used to check ice thickness while moving around.The same goes for ice that forms around partially submerged trees, brush, embankments or other structures. Avoid cracks, pressure ridges, slushy or darker areas that signal thinner ice.Ice thickness is not consistent, as it can vary significantly within a few inches. Ice can form overnight, causing unstable conditions.Snow insulates ice, which in turn inhibits solid ice formation, hiding cracks, weak and open water areas.Edges firm up faster than farther out from shore.Outdoor enthusiasts are reminded to be aware of early ice conditions before traveling onto and across North Dakota waters. Together, the collected effort focuses on improving, increasing and connecting wildlife habitat, and supporting the sustainability of new and existing livestock ranches by offering incentives and programs to promote regenerative grazing with grass-based livestock operations. In the spring, it was selected as one of 85 successful projects nationwide. “This is about keeping working lands working, getting it done on the private playing field, and we know in that arena, we have to come together, we’ve got to collaborate,” he said.Ī year ago, the Game and Fish Department and 13 contributing partners submitted a USDA Regional Conservation Partnership Program grant proposal, seeking to leverage more than $12 million in partner contributions with $10 million of USDA-NRCS funding to kick-start collaborative work toward a goals and objectives, encompassed in the Meadowlark Initiative. During the first three years of grass establishment, producers also are eligible to receive rental payments as the land transitions from cropland to grazing land.

Cost-share to establish the grass and to install grazing infrastructure, such as fencing and water, is available. Link said through the Meadowlark Initiative, producers can plant marginal cropland back to diverse native perennial grasslands for grazing. We need those folks, because they’re important in keeping that prairie healthy.” “In most cases, we’re talking about ranchers and producers who run livestock on that prairie. “When we talk about native prairie in the state, we need to acknowledge who the owners and managers of our native prairie are,” said Greg Link, Department conservation and communications division chief. Published on Episode 41 The Ghosts Of Ft.North Dakota has lost more than 70% of its native prairie over time, and it will take more than the Game and Fish Department and its long list of contributing partners in the long-haul task of enhancing, restoring, and retaining what’s left of North Dakota’s native grasslands.
