The erratic freeze/melt cycles this past winter made ice dams worse than I've ever seen. Below are some entries and photos from one of my other blogs. And, not to worry, safety precautions were taken during the shooting of these photos. The ladder was leaning into and propped up by the clothesline pole and the wires you see were no where near as close as the photos make them look. My photographer (Dale, of course) kept a close eye on me.
"We’ve had SO much snow over the last 7 weeks and it’s been quite a number of years since we’ve had ice dams this bad. What you see in the above photos is despite doing a pretty good job of keeping the roof raked. I worked on another part of the roof yesterday and here I’m just getting started on a part of the roof right above the kitchen sink."
"Hard at work. In the first picture I’m holding the hatchet with my good hand. This is the hand I chopped with. Don’t worry, I didn’t chop with the hand with the broken wrist as the second picture would seem to suggest. I’m just hamming it up for Dale’s photo. The broken wrist doesn’t hurt when it’s in the splint and held steady. "
"Good work."
