Lots of videos of people cutting a hole into a bubble under the ice and lighting the methane on fire to great effect.
Apparently up around Normal Wells there are lots of gas pockets you can drill into on the ice and light up.
As for our gas pockets, there is no way to predict just where they may form.
Other big risk is that the ice heaves break, settle down, and what looks like jumbled ice is smaller pans with maybe a few inches of ice holding the pieces together.
If it looks bluish ice, stop and walk up to check it out. Most ice right now is very white looking.
