I was out Saturday and Sunday and edges were holding, but took a drive to Cascade City park and Blue Heron Monday morning and shoreline was busted up and appear no way to access ice without wood planks.  I did not drive around to see Poison but heard similar conditions over there.

I went out of City Ramp yesterday on the 4 wheeler.  There are some planks to use thanks to Mike Howe.  Once on the ice is the best of the year.  I ran up past the island without any issues.  Fish are fat.

Another side by side went through at the Poison Creek ramp yesterday. Looked like the hole was near where the last one went in, in front of the ramp. Every year there are more of these heavy vehicles accessing the lake, and it seems like more go through each year. I hope everyone has flotation, rescue picks, and a throw rope from now until the end of the season (Which may be any day)

Why do people keep driving down the center of the ramp .It never gets a chance to freeze up before another vehicle goes through.  People going off 1 side or the other have been doing just fine getting off and on . That could change soon .

Exactly Curt.  Them concrete ramps suck in so much heat durning these warm days the ice rots in front of them.  Ice is good on the lake though.
