Did you get a lot of snow today? I'm heading down tomorrow, wondering what to expect.

Yes, the stuff pools behind the dock when the wind blows; got about 8 inches; main roads should be fine.

Last weekend Cartwright Cove at the 45mm was frozen all the way across. Didn't go boating but we did fire up the outdoor pizza oven for some tasty pies.

We are on the main channel at the 45mm no ice there but about 1000lb of ice stuck on our dock due to waves and low temps

You can follow the level here. http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydro...,1,1,1,1,1,1,1 seems like 660' is roughly full table.

It freezes very little most winters, you've got to have 6-7 days in the mid-low teens before it gets real bad, just make sure you've got your ice eater on and you'll be fine.

Hopefully it hits 55 degrees Friday like they are saying. Baywatch and I'll have the Gladiator out!

Looking Forward to it. Forecast is looking to be very cooperative at this point. I plan on heading down with the Apache in tow to drop off at PBB to get the freshened engines put back in.

I'll make sure I am at PB2 by high noon..
