I arrived two days after the opener and there was still a hell of a lot of ice on the lake. Weird. The main shelf extended about a half mile from the entrance to the Marina harbor (see image below).At first, I thought I wouldn't be able to make to the island but then I noticed little fractures in the shallows. I fired up Mom's boat (Sorry, Mom!) and slowly banged my way to open water.
Later, for shits and giggles, I took out the Alumacraft and trolled through the loose ice. It made a lovely sound, like a thousand people toasting with champagne glasses.
