Long-Distance Laser Level Test Across a Frozen Lake

Frozen lakes offer one of the flattest, most accessible long sight-lines available for amateur experimentation. This past winter, a team set up a leveled laser and a receiving target five miles apart across a frozen lake, recording the full setup and results on video.

We cover the equipment used, the calibration steps taken beforehand, and a discussion of the results including counterarguments raised by other members after the footage was first shared.
