Fingers crossed we will see 2 - 3 inches by tomorrow!

Make sure you are using some ice testing apparatus or wear a life jacket just in case, make sure you have a buddy and walk inline with each other but with enough space that you don't both fall in, bring rope and leave the beer till ice is firmer. And if you go you must give a report!!! haha would be much appeciated, all info I have is from a yokal local who lives on rosseau year round.

What is it about this lake that makes it the last to freeze?

Thanks
