This morning we are ice free between our Island and East Allie, when this happens we can make it to Barepoint anywhere from 7 days as in 2013 or as long as 23 days in 2021. Average over past 19 seasons is 14 days which would be May 14, I’m still thinking we could make Barepoint by May 09 with a little more help from Mother Nature and warm things up. On April 28 we dipped down to -5 and made 5/16 “ ice . Laurenson Lake is 1/2 clear of ice and yesterday April 30 the water bomber was practicing in Safety Bay.

Spring 2025
On this date last year I boated to Green Bouy E27 before being stopped by ice. We are definitely a week behind. I’m predicting to reach Barepoint Marina May 09 . I’m going to attempt to attach a couple pictures of this morning, if it works the candled ice on railing is 9” thick, it’s like that for about 20’ out from shore to solid ice. Still haven’t seen a Robin or heard a Loon yet. Every spring we are seeing more Swans, this year counted 14. Doesn’t seem to be as many geese as in past years.
