8-1/2” Ice.....?
« on: January 04, 2018, 07:46:57 PM »
Today I measured 8-1/2” of ice at North Fork. I didn’t use a very scientific method as I measured the depth using my slush scoop handle (see pics) and then measured the scoop with a tape measure when I got home. I had kicked away all the slush when I drilled holes so I”m pretty sure I was measuring the true ice thickness. I did notice less “bouncing” as snowmobiles went by today....

Thoughts anyone?
