My first siting of a River Otter
-
I have seen several stories about River Otters that have been reintroduced
to our area back in the 1990’s but have not seen one in Sioux Falls, until
now. ...

Did you dig a hole out there? How thick is the ice. I'm guessing several more inches thick by the end of today. -20 temps will do that.

Hi, Matt! I forgot to hook up my pedal-powered ice auger... but I found someone else's test holes by the boat ramp. I rode my bike around just off shore and heard no cracking. 4-6 inches?
ReplyDeleteThey were 4-wheeling around Lake Campbell Saturday (on the north end). Although it was fairly close to shore they were having a ball. So, the ice must be getting fairly thick quickly. Do you think we should get a 4-wheeler?

Ice update: just chopped two holes 50 feet out from shore. 4 inches thick.
ReplyDeleteMom, if you get a four-wheeler, Dad will definitely need another garage.
