Hi all:

Just wondering if anyone in the Faribault area would like to inform me about the ice conditions. I am thinking of hitting an area lake tomorrow afternoon, and just want to know what I will be facing before I get out there. I'm thinking either Shields or Mazaska, unless someone has a better idea...

I drove around a few lakes north of Faribault this morning. The lakes still look walkable. The shorelines are starting to melt away in a few spots, but the cold weather refroze most of that. Be careful.

Thanks for the info, kslipsinker. Caution is the key @ this time of the year, isn't it??

Especially with temps in the 50's for the coming week. I think I will be getting the boat ready this week.

What is everybodys bet on when the ice will be out?? Its going to be very warm and the lake i live on has a open spot already. I think in the next week or two they should be open. So what is your bet?

We went to a local lake last week and did some ice water rescues. The ice next to the arriator was still about four inches thick. We had a hard time breaking through. I got to use the ice picks that help you to pull your self out. I prefer you buy a pair of these especially if you go out by your self.
