I did an "Ice Flight" on Jan 27, and another today, with Dave Emerson of Emerson Aviation. I'm sorry to report that there appears the be LESS ice today than there was three weeks ago! Dave's impression was that much of the ice is 2-3" thick (he should know).

Take a look at these two images, taken three weeks apart near Rattlesnake:

There's also a much larger hole at the east end of Meredith bay, north of the Weirs:

And some especially daring ice fisherman in Sanders Bay:
