[Gunner55]

lookin at the cams, they had some snow up there overnite, all that brown stained water/ice on geigers is a pretty white now!!!!!!

[Gunner55]

Just checked 'em too & it doesn't look like there's much fresh snow on the other 1. It does look like the west side of the narrows is a lot worse & could open back up anytime. The east camera isn't much better as 3/4 of it is grey/slushie lookin now.

Yea I seen that to after I posted. Who really knows anyway. That's still to much for lake conditions.

[Gunner55]

Yeah, I have to believe your right. OUCH!! That hurt. Anywhere near those amounts of snow will put the kabosh on most, if not all, the travel on the area lakes. Especially the way the ice has looked to be deteriorating over at WN this week. Wasn't surprised at all to see your post about the wheeler & trailer down by you goin through.  A well known trouble spot, all the warm weather & they still gotta test it. No  worth that IMO.

i just went to the accuweather site I have and it still says 12-18 for spring lake mn!!!!!!!!

[glenn57]

looks like there has been some activity out of geigers today already.....................

[glenn57]

ya know, this really friggin suxs!!!!!!!!! this is the second new years in a row the weather has shut me down from being on a lake up north cause of the weather. i should be on the lake by now sitting in my spear shack, if not really close to it.

this will probably also be the first year since i needed to have a spear chuckin license that i wont get one due to the weather and ice conditions. 

and likely the  3rd or 4th new years in like 15 years that there is rain for new years. 

there............i'm done whining..............for now!!!!!!!!!

[Gunner55]

There'll be more & it won't be very long.
