For alternating hot and cold soaks, of course I'd use the hot tub, right?
This led to me balancing half-clothed on the slippery edge of a hot tub and swinging my legs around to stick my toes in a pan of ice water. Yikes it was cold.
Important Safety Tip: this causes full-body flinching! Being mentally prepared for the shock didn't seem to matter. Fortunately, every time I did this I managed to just save myself from pitching over backwards into the water. This is especially lucky because the smallest timer I could carry out there was my laptop.
Given the way my luck's been going the rest of the day, I'd say I'm about even now. Fortunately the laptop is now safely indoors.

And yeah, "lake you had to chop ice out of" seems to be accepted as the most convenient way, as in "why would anyone go to more effort to do it differently?". As I recall, in Lake Tahoe they fake it with snowbanks.
