Travel: Walking on Ice
Avoid slipping by walking like a penguin.
Fact: About 60 people die each year in the US as a result of slipping on ice. This is about as many that will die from a tornado.

THIS DOES WORK.
Trust the Canadian who walks like this from December to March. It may look mildly goofy, but in winter everybody already does (bobble hats with hockey team logos on!), and it’s really nice to not have to worry so much about falling on your arse.
As someone who was born in Minnesota and has wintered there a few times in my adult life: This is the walk you want.
I can definitely attest to this.
Yes this! Although sometimes I forget. Literally fell tonight and hit my head on a tire. So be careful out there everyone.
