oldphart Posted January 11, 2008 Report Posted January 11, 2008 ~~~~I'm a thunken of hitten Lake Haliburton this Sunday, or another lake in the same area, has anyone got any info, on the ice condistions, tried calling a buddy up in Eagle Lake, Terry who operates Eagle Lake Adventure and Tackle shop, but no answers the phone.
Jer Posted January 11, 2008 Report Posted January 11, 2008 I did a lot of driving yesterday in the Haliburton area and must have passed at least fifty lakes between Carnarvon, Haliburton, Wilberforce, Bancroft and back down to Buckhorn...I wouldn't step foot on any of them, really nasty looking ice, lotsa open water, lotsa running water and the shorelines are all broken up. Hardly an ice-hut to be seen anywhere. Boshkung, Maple, Grass, Kashagawigamog, Baptiste, Paudash...you name it...they all looked terrible. Water levels are up to spring run-off levels, higher than I saw all last summer. The main ice may be OK...getting off the shore would be a challenge. Maybe a few days of colder temps will firm things up, but this weekend could be tricky. Play Safe!
oldphart Posted January 14, 2008 Author Report Posted January 14, 2008 ~~~I finally got hold of Terry at Eagle Lake Adventures, and he gave me almost the same report, on the lakes, they should be okay this coming weekend, with Temps down around -18 on Saturday night, and Sunday. Slug and Shovel were up there on Sat. and also report weak ice near shore.
