Ice dive a unique experience

Today a big hole will be cut into the ice on top of Lake Minnetonka. That might seem a little odd, but Friday, hundreds of people will dive through that hole into the frigid lake water. They will be participating in the 20th annual New Years Day ALARC Ice Dive. MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Bill Wenmark who started the tradition 20 years ago.
