Dan, Glad everyone was safe after that scarey experience. Looking at the picture you must have been somewhat south of Lockes to see that much of Round Island. We often see a pressure ridge between the north end of Lockes and Belnap point, sometimes with some water exposed. I expect to be crossing there on Saturday and am looking for a report on the ice surface condition. It may change with today's snow, but is it currently suitable for an ice boat and long distance skating? Usually we ski out to the island, but it doesn't look like will work this year. Anyone else care to comment on the ice before and after Tuesday's snow?
