I was there on sunday and the landing where you drive out was all slush for the first 8-10 feet.  you could get on and off the ice off to the sides. not sure what it is like now. 

fyi -  there is another landing over by the golf course but i have not checked it or know if it is useable right now.

good luck guys.

Lou, just back that trailer down like you are launching a boat and drive that Ranger right out on the ice...  :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:

Walk out to it on the side. You'll be all set.

I'll be jealous thinking about what I am missing tomorrow.

As long as the furnace guy shows up tomorrow, he was sick today... >:( >:( >:( Wasted my day until they called me 2 hours after he was supposed to be there to tell me he wasn't coming.

But yeah, I would like to get out for a half day on Thurs. Whites would be a bonus. ;D Can't go to far is all.

I'm gonna give it a try. I don't wanna waste gas either, but at worst I'll go somewhere else if we can't get on. I'm bringing my ramps, so if I have too I'll back the trailer in and put the ramps out. Sure wish there was another way to get on.

We were going to go up there also but my report was basically the same. Sounds like trouble to me!
If you like an 80+ mile, one way, adventure, go for it....... ;D
