You miss quoted me.. I did not write that. (Notice the preceding the
text.)

What I wrote was the response that whoever did write it obviously has not
flown in Alaska in the winter time. And I agree with you, frozen lakes are
fun, there's tons of them up here, and tons of snow covered runways too. And
a couple of plowed ones now and then.

they are meticulously cleared at major airports.

There's an "airport" somewhere in the Northeast that is simply a runway
plowed on a lake. Ops on a snow covered runway are fun.
