First trip to town

I went to Bare Point by snowmobile this afternoon,we have 7.5" ice around the French Narrows area and 5" on the parts that were broken up by the winds.We rec'd 2.5" snow Wednesday so snowmobile travel is awesome. There are a lot of pressure ridges along the way,most are small but a couple 18"-24" high. The route I drove would be very much the same way the ice road.Lots of wolf tracks around Queer Island. Counted 12 deer crossing the Narrows on Wednesday,saw 2 eagles by Pipestone.They are driving trucks in welcome channel and have started to plow, they have more ice than we do. Please use Caution if travelling this weekend,
the thinest ice I found was 4" but as we all know it Varies.
