So no one should go on the ice ever?

The entire point of this thread is to help share information about the state of the ice on Winnipesaukee. I think our collective shared knowledge improves the safety on the lake. An example of this forum at its very best IMO.

The good news/bad news is that there's not much snow cover on the lake right now which is good for ice growth and also will keep most sleds off the ice for now. Even fan-cooled sleds will overheat their runners in these conditions. Current conditions and the weather outlook look very favorable for a safe Fishing Derby.
