Luc Mehl, Ice rescue instructor
"So usually, these lakes are all covered with snow by the time the water freezes. And I've been skating for about 12 years up here, and I've never seen it like that. So this was a very unusual, sort of unusual environmental conditions."

“通常，当湖水冻结成冰时，这些湖泊的表面都已经被积雪覆盖了。我到这片区域来滑冰已经有12年了，我还从来没有见过这样的情况。所以这很不寻常，像是一种异常的环境条件。”

Luc Mehl, Ice rescue instructor
"The combination of being able to look down three or four metres and see what's on the bottom – I've never experienced that in the 12 years that I've been doing this."

卢克·梅尔       冰水救援教练员
“可以看到湖面下3、4米深，还能清楚地看到湖底的物体，这是我在这里滑冰12年来从未遇到过的情景。”

The rare phenomenon has revealed huge rocks at the bottom of Rabbit Lake in Anchorage, Alaska.

这个罕见的现象让阿拉斯加州安克雷奇市的兔子湖底的巨大岩石一览无余。

Luc Mehl, Ice rescue instructor
"I think what was so special about this ice is that because it's up in the alpine, it's up in the mountains, the lake bottom doesn't have any vegetation, and it's rock instead of soil. And so, the water is really clear."

卢克·梅尔       冰水救援教练员
“我认为这片冰的独特之处在于这个湖在高山区域，湖底没有任何植被，而且底部都是岩石，不是土壤。因此，湖水格外清澈。”
