Champlain ice conditions

Hey just wondering how much water was on the ice in the North Hero area?  Heading up this weekend and wanted to plan accordingly,  dont want the kiddos to be a water logged mess!  Thanks

I was on the ice after work Thursday, the snow all melts and ponds of 2-3" deep water everywhere at sandbar.
All the holes are draining like toilets.

I'd assume if ponding at sandbar, then this is indicative of everywhere in our region, especially today near 60F.

Edges will start busting up soon.

St. Albans had no water on the ice and was smooth sailing. There was some holes over 20" though, so don't rive wheelers in the dark. After the single digit Sunday night and teens all next week, the ice will stay solid for a couple more weeks.

There are holes about 2x4’ repeat some major holes that can swallow a person!
