Guest mnaiman Report post Posted January 25, 2012 Just got back with mr. canoehead from dragging the hut out on silver harb. 8" measured about 100ft from the peninsula. There was a ridge running out from the island so we stayed away from there... shouldnt be too long now though!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Canoehead 69 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 If I had to guess the ice is probably the same thickness out past the island but crossing the ridge might be sketchy. And it turns out the person who thought there were shacks out there was looking at portables. There is now one shack out there...First! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damn, good thing we didn't install the satellite reciever yet!If it aint froze over to the other side the ice may drift out, I have been out many times where the ice has opened a 2 foot channel at Silver Harbour and that's with the ice lockup shore to shore.
