barrystrs Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 There were still many spots of open water Sat morning even though it was -15 fri night. It is actually more dangerous now because there is a skim of thin ice over these areas so you cannot see where they are. This is not intended to scare anyone away, I have been on the ice since opening day and the ice is thick in most places. If you don't know the lake follow someones path. I know the lake well, but I won't travel at night this year as there are just too many bad spots, and it is very easy to get disoriented when it is dark.
pics Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 Scugog seems to claim more lives in the winter than any other time of year....I hate to say it but it probably WILL happen this year too...
Dondorfish Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Posted January 15, 2012 Hey Tracker !!!!! How ya been Bud!!!! Still alive and kicking - thanks for asking - hope to get the ice hut out real soon! How ya been keeping?
GBW Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) all I can add is USE CAUTION! I was out on the lake yesterday and it's far from good ice where I was with Sinclair. Slick and not thick for the most part (the ice you dirty old minds out there and you know who you are ). I had to keep my spikes on my boots all day so I wouldn't slide away in the wind... *edit* I need a new keyboard, this one is junk Edited January 15, 2012 by GBW
