Me and all the Smurfy groupies follow you wherever you go. If you ever see a drone over your cabin that's us. It's like big brother is watching you.

[smurfy]

we might need to use that drone over on sand lake!!!!!!!!!!

Going to give it a shot, hopefully the ice is good. I'll be leaving the plow on the truck just in case it's needed. 

 

Talked to a few locals that said I should be good to get in there with the ice castle. 

 

Thanks again

Were you able to get in to Arrowhead with your Ice Castle?

[smurfy]

Between rain and temps it melted down pretty good, still snow in woods . The snow that's left is froze/ crusty, I would think it would have to be at least all wheel drive, hard to tell .   

[smurfy]

[smurfy]

1/2 inch snow over night and snowing now, 18 above with colder coming end of week high's  15 to 20 above and -5 to -10 below at night should be froze up pretty good by then.

[smurfy]

thanks snowfighter......i'll pass this along!!!!!!!

[gunner55]

Made it out yesterday am, still found 18" of good clear ice here. A little slick out there, 1 needs to be careful. Got 1 right away, nothin after.

[smurfy]

[smurfy]

[smurfy]

[smurfy]

so i'm heading up next wed. will I need to bring my ice fishing stuff!!!!!!!!!!!

[OLE77]

You shouldn't need the extension, but it doesn't take up much room so you might as well bring it.

[gunner55]

The weather usually turns crappy when he's up there anyway, so he probably won't need a boat.
