A light mist was falling and temperatures hovering in the lower 30's as over 175 jumpers braved the chilly waters of Lake Michigan in Ludington, Mich., Wednesday, March 20, 2002, to participate in the WMOM Lake Jump 2002. The event also drew hundreds of spectators and raised over $9,000 for a women's shelter. (AP Photo/Ludington Daily News, Jeff Kiessel)
