Ice Diving

• What to do in the event the diver loses contact with the line or the line tender does not get feedback from the diver in response to signals given to the diver.
Equipment
Since diving under the ice takes place in cold climates, there is typically a large amount of equipment required. Besides each person's clothing and exposure-protection requirements, including spare mitts and socks, there is basic scuba gear, back-up scuba gear, tools to cut a hole in the ice, snow removal tools, safety gear, some type of shelter, lines, and refreshments required.
