ice shanty

Frozen lake shelter

An ice shanty is a small shelter placed on a frozen lake or river for ice fishing.

These structures range from simple windbreaks to heated huts with bunks, and they're hauled onto the ice each winter, then removed before spring thaw.

Also called an ice shack or ice house, particularly in different regions of the northern United States and Canada.
