Headhunter Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hey Folks! Considering getting out on Cooks Bay on Sunday and have a couple of conditions questions: 1) Anybody driving their vehicles on Cooks yet? (4X4) 2) How much snow is on Cooks now? Thanks, HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 they were driving trucks on cooks but there is a fair bit of snow now which is weighing heavy on the ice, so when you drill holes water is coming up from the holes which does cause slush fields , but that is second hand info, and you might be fine if you are running out to the main fishing areas where the snow has been compacted by the traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I can't speak about cooks, but there is a good bit of snow out from JP, and all the way to beaverton, so I would think its safe to asssume its the same all over. Trucks were out from JP yesterday, but they were struggling to get around. Looked to be better off the main path actually. Sinker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhunter Posted January 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Thanks Terry and Sinker! My main concern is snow depth, I don't want to get my truck stuck, that more work than I care for! If the snows too deep, well I'm back to the same problem! Man I'm gettin lazy as I get older!

luv2drift Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 just fyi The ice formed quit strange this year on cooks and the thickness varies everywhere from how the winds blew the ice in and on piled up. I drilled a hole three days ago that was 4 inches....... Use at own risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
