I drove out to my shack yesterday to do some repairs, previous ice check was 11.5" - 13" depending on where I checked. Seems like ares with snow before the thaw are a little thinner than areas that were bare or black ice.
But plenty for my little 2.3 ranger.
Ran into Paul out there and he was chevking Ice thickness for airport and from ramp to bandstand he was getting 11.5" - 12" and he was headed towards the runway to check that out. He said if it is consistant than he could be out as soon as today to start plowing.
Let the winter activities begin but be safe out there, wear your cleats, you will need them.
And as always, my shack is the first one between the ramp and the bandstand, tan with table attached. Please stop in for a cup of hot beverage and shoot the breeze.
