thoughts on winter transportation...

There will be a time period at the beginning of winter when the ice will be too thick for the aluma craft, but too thin for a snowmobile, or any other type of motorized craft, and, possibly, even for walking. Then, in the spring, there will be a time period when the ice will be too thin for the motorized vehicles, and possibly even walking, but too thick for the aluma craft.

Maybe you won't be here during these periods, but, you never know just when they will occur (Mother Nature isn't always forthcoming).

I guess the answer is to always have enough supplies on hand so to be able to not have to make a trek during these periods.

This is another posibility.Don't know about costs but you do get to use your snowmobile on water or snow.
