Fur Hat Ice Tour
Janis Putelis starts the Tour at Whitefish Lake, Minnesota, where he meets wild foods expert Mark Norquist from Modern Carnivore. Mark introduces Janis to dark house ice spearing, a traditional winter food gathering method in the Midwest. Together, they cut a hole in the ice, set up a dark shelter, and use long-handled tridents to spear lake whitefish and northern pike. Chef Lukas Leaf joins them on the ice to cook fresh whitefish cakes.
