I've rolled in the snow after sauna on a Vermont mountain, and it's wonderful. Helps me understand how humans can thrive in extreme climates--like the kids in Tibet who run around barefoot in the snow.
Some of my neighbors have hot tubs they enjoy lolling in when it's above -7°C, but that lacks the contrast.
Of course in this moment of the Anthropocene it's hard to generalize, but does the lake usually freeze or is it generally open all winter?

Re: Weee ah!
The neighbors say that the lake used to freeze over, but doesn't usually now, sadly. : ( But there's a smaller lake nearby which often does freeze.
