I know the feeling. Same thing happened to me at Crawling Valley. Walked on dragging a big heavy slead and after trying for a burbot I left in the dark. Big mistake.
the head lantern in my back pack was dead. Walked for over an hour for what shoud have been a 20 minute hike when I realized I was back where I started.
Dug around in my pack and there was the spare batt's how dumb ass i felt.
Put the lamp on and walked back to my truck. Not a nice situation to be in and i am glad you were able to get off the ice safely Wayne
