0004448: Embark wagon occurs on frozen river
Embark occurred (wagon placement) on frozen river with sheer walls to either side (No access to surface). Attempted to immediately dig a niche in the canyon wall, designate a stockpile, and move all supplies in while deconstructing wagon. However, by the 10th of granite, the river thawed, nearly all supplies are now underwater.

This could be challenging and fun, but I think the dwarves could perhaps check to ensure that the embark wagon is not entirely on ice if not in a freezing biome.
Select an embark in a temperate zone with a river. The more rivers, the greater chance of this occurring. It is, of course, random.
No tags attached.
