(Photo 1)
Several men shovelling through the ice to make way to shore for a tractor that had fallen through the ice.
(Shared with photo 2) "And here are some pictures of the really tough part of the job, one of the boys break through, in fact on this trip seven of the fourteen tractors did the same thing; four were taken out as this one was, but the others are still there."

(Photo 2)
People looking into the cut in the ice where the tractor just surfaced.

(Photo 3)
A hoist made to pull another submerged tractor from the ice.
(Shared with photo 4) "After four days of fishing, slinging and timber placing, chain blocks haul this one to the surface and finally out onto the ice followed later by the sleigh on which can be seen a mine cage and hoist, none the worse but worth considerably more."
