Long Pt.

Just got off the phone with a friend of mine. He said there's a pickup that broke through the ice. He said it looked like only the front end went in. They had it tied up to try to stop it from going in. It sounded like it was in the area of the bigger crack, towards the west side of all the houses.<P>

Did they let trucks drive out yesterday? We were out at 16 and some guys said that they weren't letting trucks drive out.

Just returned from Long Point yesterday. They started letting trucks out on Friday but stressed greatly to stay on the road and cross the bridge. On saturday I watched several trucks driving in aimlessly towards shore during the snow storm and couldn't believe it. Long point had the road and bridge well marked but some of the trucks just headed for the landing. Most people did use the road but several did not. When we crossed the bridge after the snow, it was pretty slushy under the bridge.

Boater, we came back Wednesday. That crack was still moving earlier in the week. We crossed with ATV Sunday and Monday, West of the bridge, but on Tuesday the ice shifted and we couldn't get across safely with the ATV without the bridge. Good advice stay on the main roads!

The launch at Long Point looked Like a Zoo. Few cars out but there is barely 13-15 inches of ice, use the sleds or wheelers I say.
