LRCA spokesperson Ryan Mackett said people going to look at the "blue ice" formation are finding areas of unsafe ice. He said people who use the Silver Harbour parking are also asked to follow the Conservation Regulations, which includes paying the $5 parking fee. A phenomenon known as "blue ice" has been drawing hundreds of people onto Lake Superior, near Silver Harbour, in recent days. He suggests that people who arrive at Silver Harbour and find the parking lot full, reschedule their visit for another time. People are looking for things to do, and people are flocking to Silver Harbour, but that has raised some concerns as well."
