Crew members aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Bristol Bay, a 140-foot ice-breaking tug homeported in Detroit, conduct buoy operations just to the east of the Cleveland skyline as they participate in Operation Fall Retrieve in Lake Erie, Dec. 7, 2013. During the winter months, lake spray freezes almost instantly on the decks of the cutter making operations extremely dangerous. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Ensign Tyler Bittner)
