Warmer temperatures bring thinning ice throughout Ohio’s lakes, creeks and ponds, creating treacherous conditions for slick surface thrill-seekers heading outside. Recreational vehicles like ATVs, snowmobiles and dirt bikes can make for a fun afternoon across icy surfaces, but with warmer temps can bring danger. “We are warming up here, people should be cautious getting on the ice,” said Inspector Bill Holland with the Summit County Sheriff’s Office. Portage Lakes permits recreational vehicles on the frozen lake, with restrictions. In Stark County, Stark Park Chief Ranger Justin Laps says “ATVs, dirt bikes and other recreational vehicles are generally not permitted on property owned, controlled or leased by Stark Parks. This includes our frozen lakes.”
