On the Red River in Manitoba. During the spring break up ice will
occasionally jamb up and dam the river, flooding the surrounding area.
The Amphibex machine breaks up the ice so that it will move down stream
without piling up. The link is to the Amphibex web site

What an incredible contraption! If you go to the Web site, click Videos and
then watch the "Glace" video. Interesting!
