Quote #10
Sig's fears were also more pressing than the possibility of the ice breaking, as he kept one eye on his dogs and the other on the gun under the blanket. But as they came closer to the brown smudge he'd seen from the shore, and saw it was indeed Einar's stuff from the sled, he found himself picturing his father's terrible end again. (33.18)
Especially since his dad just died from falling in the ice, we think Sig is right to be scared of this one. Luckily he doesn't fall, but the fear is almost as bad as the event itself because he can't control it and he knows what will happen if it does break.
