Ice-Out Watch 2006

emailmannh · 03-27-2006, 08:25 AM

I've hit the small lake I live on, now it's time to ride the big lake. Weather looks very good to put the jetski's in on Tuesday 3/28. That's what my buddy and I are planning on, just need to know where we can find a launch in Alton, Gilford or Laconia that is open to the big patches of open water. Someone have a launch we could use for a day? Email me at Mark@nhhb.org

Thanks

If you go into Meredith Bay, we'll get to see it on the webcam!

Heres another good sign too, the boys over at Anchor Marina were out playing a little yesterday between Spindle Point and the channel. First boat of the year on 03/26 when last year there was still to much snow to get into my back yard!

What's that object off in the distance that appeared 2 days ago? Looks like a bob house?

When I took the 3/26 photo, there was an airboat coming across the ice from the islands. That's why it's only in that particular day's picture.

Check out the Castle Springs cam. Is it me or does it look like there is lots of open water?

Here is Orion's excellent lake guide of the Castle Springs Cam.

I've been watching that area on the castle webcam too thinking it's all open water or must be real black ice. Looks like going up to Moultonborough though is still icy.
