I also know someone who skied through Sally's Gut many years ago.

The Lake looked crazy yesterday.
Hmmm. Never gone through Sally's Gut at speed. Hard to make that sharp bend with a full length 75' ski line.
Always impressed by the video of 4 abreast snowmobiles skimming the Weirs Channel.
How about folks from the other side of the lake? Anybody ski from Back Bay to Wolfeboro Bay under Main St.?

Not sure how a skier would be able to do that without his/her head being chopped off by the low clearance bridge. Matter of fact, most boats won't fit under that bridge.

When I was an active skier, and more limber than I am now, I could sit on my skis, hands down by my ankles. The clearance is close but probably easy especially at low water. The question might be the boat. Certainly one with no windshield. A Donzi Sweet Sixteen would qualify.
