The motor vessel Manistee, in ballast with no cargo, rides high in the waters of the Straits of Mackinac after being free from ice by the crew of Coast Guard Cutter Biscayne Bay, Jan. 28, 2012. The Manistee, a 676-foot bulk carrier, was en route to Lake Huron when it became beset by ice and the crew requested Coast Guard assistance. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Chief Petty Officer Scott Adler)
