Thanks, Pine Island Guy!

Our camp is in the cove behind Shepard Island. Any word on that getting to that area safely?

We had to break through a couple hundred yards of ice by using clubs, but it was worth it to be back on Rattlesnake! The wind shifted the ice around last night, so it was give up and go home or improvise. We broke through the ice that has accumulated between Ames Farm and the north side of the peninsula. On the south side of the peninsula there is ice damage to docks, including us. By the time we left a little while ago, the ice we broke through had disappeared. A little ice left north of peninsula when we left.
