Lots of ice around but still the main lake is open for miles.

With the cold forecast on the way my guess is Saturday 1/30/10 morning we will wake up to see a frozen lake. Only if the wind dies off sometime. Late this year.

It was frozen last weekend but broke up in the wind and warm weather.

Cold tonight but the big wind will keep it open until the wind dies down Friday night.

Wind shifted to the north, big wind, 20+ out of the north, very cold, 5 this am. As soon as that wind dies there should be lots of ice, tonight or tomorrow.

Lightly frozen over this am. -6 degrees this morning, light wind. Should hold this time if the wind and temp stay low which they are forecast to do for the next 36-48 hours..

0 degrees, no wind this morning. Looks frozen in for the duration this time. Big west wind forecast for tomorrow but still cold. Then back to calm and cold for few days.

I guess they still do the Winter Carnival in the village with races if there is enough ice. I don't know, I have not been to it in years.

they still have the winter carnival every weekend in February. They stopped doing the 4x4 drag races many years ago.

Ice held in wind today. Dusting of snow on top. I will report next as the ice is going out around April 1st. Cheers.

50/50 on going up. Will let you know if we head up. I was in Old Forge for the boaters snowmobile poker run this past weekend. Check out my pics in the poker run section.
