Ice updates
AltaIce:
Stayed close yesterday. (We only had a four hour window to get out)
In Calgary, Lake Mackenzie seemed to be about 12" or so. Lady at the booth said they would be safe enough to drive there Zam on it by next weekend, for sure.

Pigeon last week was 8 inches. This week it is averaging 11-12 inches. At least where I was. This cold weather is doing the trick. Should be drivable by next weekend at the earliest. Still, it is early so it the ice will likely be variable. I think it is safe as long as one has pre-drilled and knows the area.
IceAnvil:
Personally,
My father raised me to never drive on the ice until she is 18 inches, and even then I go slow and stick close to the "roads"
Once she is close to 2 feet, Party Hardy but still I drive slow.. can cause a wake if you are tearing down the iceroads.
lokal:
Had the jeep out on Sylvan yesterday, ice was around 12" in two different places.
crblair:
I also wait until at least 15in to be on the safe side. I guess 5-6 trucks were on the ice at Coal on the weekend and they ice was only about8-10in! Yikes
