From this shot I'd think the ramp is still usable. The Marine Patrol HQ is right next to it. I'm sure they'll be glad to tell you.

Ah... Putting in, or taking out? Inquiring mind wants to know.

The Smith Cove cam has not updated since December 8th.

December 8th? I hadnt noticed. Sorry.

This link shows Varney Point which is just northwest of Smith Cove and the ramp. A bit of ice apears to be forming now but it may not last if the weather gets just a few degrees warmer.

Good luck!

The Smith Cove Cam is far back in the cove to between Gilford and Glendale Yacht Clubs. This will freeze in far quicker than near the MP/public docks. I was up on Thanksgiving weekend and Gilford Yacht Club almost out to the camera reach was frozen solid (I had to axe through 150+ feet to get off my dock to open water) yet it was clear out of the Cove near MP and the docks.

...but the public two-lane ramp at Shep Browns was open and all sanded as of today. Sanding done by me about a week ago when it was all snow & icy so's I could remove my gsbq (goslowbequiet) 18' Starcraft. The ramp on Rt 3 in Meredith near the Big intersection of Rts 3 & 25 is also open and sanded, also by me.
