I think there will be ice by x-mas, but not as widespread as we'd like it to be. Maybe we got spoiled with early starts the last 2 -3 seasons.
Ice in 2 weeks? Maybe at ponds even less thrilling than Wood Creek. ;) I can wait.






Looks like another week of slightly above normal temps. Maybe we'll get lucky with more colder nights than predicted.
Either way, on Dec 1'st I drag my gear out of the closet, and make an appointment for snow tires.
