...up one degree to 35
As you probably noticed, the temp was up one degree today from 34 to 35 on the water temp page of this website.
Someone was able to slice through the solid ice from the Cattle Landing dock directly across the passage way, maybe 200 yards, to Bear Island with a 12' aluminum row boat w/ a 10hp outboard. The little light weight boat cut through the solid ice like a hot knife through butter.
That takes a gung-ho attitude. I'd be concerned about flipping the boat or puncturing the thin aluminum hull, but who knows, maybe it was easy due to the weak ice?
