We are heading up Friday and would like to know if we can get around off the main roads without getting stuck in our 4x4 SUV or do we need to bring the snowmobiles too? How much snow is on the Lake?

Posted

I talked to Zipple Bay Resort today and they said they

didnt get too much snow the last couple of days. Off

road running will be pretty rough. They might not be

letting truck out there yet by the weekend.

Morris Point also said the snow didnt effect them much

I dont know about vehicles out there.

Over Pine on the Adrians road they were getting water

comming up thru some cracks and fishing holes. The weight

of the new snow and all activity was pushing down pretty

hard on the ice. It will cool off on Friday and that

should solve the problem. I know trucks WERE going out

on the Adrians road.....

Better bring the snowmobile if you can

Maybe 2 to 4 inches of snow the past 2 days? Morris point is still not letting vehicles on as of yesterday. When/if we do get snow it'll hide all the ice jumbles and folks will be getting stuck all over the place off the trails.

I'm assuming that 4 wheelers pulling portables will do just fine, correct?

I would say about 8-10" of snow on the lake now around Pine Island.

4 wheelers OK and snowmobiles are OK

I'm not sure why people have to push it with the trucks. We had about 13-14" of ice. I saw 1 ton diesels with drop axle shacks out there. Not me baby!!

And while I'm at it. Please do not drive bumper to bumper on the roads and I have no idea why people park trucks right next to each other.

      There’s critters out and about.  Get yourself some cellular trail cams and you’ll see.

      One more day….. but I’m thinkin’ my guess was a little early…. For this year.

      It wouldn't be the first time I've heard the USS Skunked Again breaking ice! I left this morning, the rain really did a number to the ice. I'll bet the Partridge River will be open by the weekend.

      My yard is pretty open, but narrow. I think I'll be fine with reception in the areas I'm thinking. I try to keep the hill somewhat natural, but my wife wants to see the lake better. The video's I've watched, they have topped the trees and mounted the dish. I would this the swaying would affect the signal. Does Starlink help you with using WiFi for calling? My T-Mobile service sux at the cabin. Did you bury your cable?

      I'm on the wide part of the channel going in to Black Bay. We won't see Paul B. For years.

      Welcome back. Wow it's been since 2018 it looks like. Did you ever "I'm tightening up my footprint and want to build on my Bozeman lot on the Gallatin"?  😏

      You're probably right. This isn't official since I've already lost, but I'll make my supplemental guess for May 6th since it's still open. 😄   As long as I can snake my way along the shore and/or plow through some dark ice on the 8th, I'll be happy. I love aluminum boats!

      For all of my "problems" with getting a clear signal it's worth it. I can spend more time at the lake because I can work during the day and play or get things done at night. Toss in that I can record and watch a football/hockey/basketball game when I'm done at the end of the day....priceless.   Like your place, our property is more natural and I was worried about having to cut down a bunch of trees. I like that people have to get up close to see our place from the lake through the trees. Luckily I didn't have to do much to get enough a signal that works for me. If I needed to be on video calls, I probably would run the dish down to the shore to get a better view of the sky.   BTW - the main problem with mounting the dish on a tree is that the tree still has a canopy that will block the signal. The best option would be to top a tree and then mount it on the clear-cut top.
