Alton Bay Ice Runway 2015

Fargo · 03-03-2015, 05:01 PM

I watched them film today. Some fancy flying. The segment will air tomorrow on the Today Show. Was great hanging around the planes. Just a nice group. Hats off to the volunteers that maintain the runway.

Cathy and I had a great time hanging out, plane watching and learning a bit about bob houses!

Looking good out there Riverat! Thanks for keeping us posted on the happenings

Sad, but the ice has gotten too thick for me to drill through (30") and the season is winding down

So if my plan comes together, I will be removing the shacks on Sunday to their summer resting place. It was great to see a few Forum friends this winter even though the conditions were rough. But hope to see you again this summer somewhere around this beautiful place we call home.
