Can't help you with the Zipple area, but I just got back from Riverbend yesterday. Not a lot of snow on the lake. We were able to drive off road to their houses. A few small drifts but nothing to stop us. Adrians road over Pine Island was in good shape, and the houses that were set up on the lake didn't appear to have any drifting. We didn't get any snow Mon thru Thursday morning, not sure if they got any later yesterday.

there was maybe an inch of snow at my place overnight. other than that there has been no snow fall. looking at the radar currently, we might miss the brunt of this storm as well. thats what I'm hoping at least.

its probably going to be a mess after last night. 5-6" in roosevelt, with high winds. probably pretty drifted in out on the lake. or maybe it all blew off again lol. i know the roads on dry land are a mess.

Morris Pt is plowed. Off road travel is possible but difficult. Many 2 1/2'ish drifts that are hard to see in the blowing snow and flat light.

Sorry. Didn't mean to highjack your thread.

babblers was a mess today had to leave the wheel house out. The road was closed yesterday and today so hopefully they will get her cleaned up in order to get our houses out next weekend. It was a treat just getting the trucks out today.

That and the added snow has added weight to the Ice sheet, and Water is flooding up out of the holes. There were some drifts as high as some of the fish houses.

Some of the Guys that pulled their Ice castles out past the resort Day houses, still have their houses out their waiting for someone to help plow them out.

The resorts were working hard on getting the ice roads open but due to the conditions we decided to come home early today.

The Williams area had about 7" of light, fluffy snow from the New Year's Eve/Day storm, accompanied by strong NE winds that then turned west. Drove out of Long Point resort today. They had 2-3 plow trucks and a tractor mounted snowblower reopening their roads. Major snowdrifts around the houses that were on the lake during the storm. The wind had moved the snow around with bare ice in places, hard pack in places, and big drifts downwind of any obstacles. Things were pretty quiet, small crowd fishing today. Was fishing in 30' about ½ mile east of the twin islands, very sloooow...
