Alton Bay Ice Runway


Occurred on February 14, 2022 / Barnstead, New Hampshire, USA

Info from Licensor: Alton Bay on Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire, pilots can use the only FAA-certified, plowed ice runway in the continental US. Weather permitting, Alton Bay is used by about 50 seaplanes each month. But come the freeze, conventional aircraft come in droves. It's been that way since the 1960s, and the runway will see more than 100 planes from throughout New England on particularly busy days.
