Usually, yes. Minimum safe ice thickness for driving on the ice is at least 22 cm (8.7 in). But, there are other safety factors to consider, such as snow drifts, moving water, ice cracks, etc.

A glacier is something that forms when snow falls in a place where it never has the time to melt. Eventually it builds up thick enough to turn into a thick slab of ice, and that's a glacier. Cut a piece of it, and that's glacier ice.
The ice is usually thick enough to support them but now because of global warming they will probably fall through more.

You could always skate at the pond, or in really cold places like the ocean. Of course, you have to make sure that the ice is thick enough.
Super thick!

Adding grit to ice may not work if the ice is too thick or if the grit is not spread evenly. Additionally, if the temperature is extremely low, the grit may not provide enough traction on the ice.
The North Pole is situated in the Arctic Ocean, where the temperature is never warm enough to melt the thick sea ice that freezes much of the year.
Curling ice on a cement surface should typically be about 1 to 1.5 inches thick. This thickness provides enough insulation to prevent the underlying cement from affecting the ice quality while ensuring durability for gameplay. Proper maintenance and regular flooding can help maintain the ice's integrity and performance.
They are the Polar Ice Caps and they are not as thick as they used to be.
