Way back in post #52 I was testing my LED Landing Light with Direction Track from the front in a snow covered environment in cloudy conditions. This past week I was finally able to test Direction Track from the side in cloudy conditions on a snow covered lake.
Initially I set the Neo to Far | Flat | Video and had it track me from the side as I snowshoed across the lake but the Neo moved to the back and began tracking from there instead. I stopped it and set it to Medium | Flat | Video and tried again and this time it worked and it tracked me quite well as I snowshoed. It kept tracking even as I turned toward the treeline. I was quite pleased as the snow had very little texture to it (see photo). I swapped batteries and turned around and headed back with the same settings but this time the Neo behaved as if it was unable find a textured surface and was becoming erratic so I landed. When I checked the LED Landing Light I noticed that they were noticeably dimmer even though the unit was fully charged before I started.
The LED Light basically lasted one Neo battery and likely the cold (-3ºC) and the units small battery contributed to the rapid discharge making it useless after one Neo battery in the cold weather. Regardless, I was quite surprised how well it worked at compensating for the lack of a well defined textured surface.

Didn't happen if there's no video, Chris 
And how do you get the guts to walk out over that lake? Given my ignorance living in the Santa Cruz, CA area where our main concern is the height of the surf, I'm guessing y'all experienced northerners know the ice thickness somehow, but the idea gives me the willies!
