More info on Ice


Boy, I just hate to post this because my blog is beginning to look like just an ice status posting, but I know some of you want to come up for fishing open this weekend and you are really interested in the ice situation. At this point you can still not paddle even along the shore line on Clearwater Lake. The ice is still tight up to the shoreline.
The lakes at the top of the trail are going out or are already out. That April snow storm we had really insulated our ice for a few extra weeks this year.
The good news is that it was close to 65 degrees today and it is raining. The past two nights it has been over freezing and the lake has a gray cast to it.

If we don't make ice out by Saturday, I am sure that we will be out soon after that.
We continue the spring process of opening. We have everything running in the lodge and the heavy duty spring clean starts tomorrow. Erik took advantage of a warm day yesterday and starting clearing away under brush. The transport vans will be started up tomorrow and tuned up for the spring. Peggy took some time to clear out a garden today.
