Browing3812 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Hey Guys, Looking to head up to our camp in Sprucedale next weekend.... Curious to see ice thickness on the smaller lakes in the area? Hoping to get out and do some ice-fishing but I don't like to mess around with thin ice in the least. I imagine there is a fair bit of ice still and perhaps am being a bit over cautious but would love to hear first hand from anyone up that way. Thanks in advance!

Watch the shorelines and anywhere runoff or creeks run in. Where in Sprucedale are You? I have a camp on axe lake rd off 518. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjack7 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Lots of ice still. Im on Hwy 522 and drilled no less than 20" everywhere last wknd. No snow on the lakes so it's prett slippery unless some falls this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArgyleRider Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Was up last weekend, hoping to go again while it lasts. Most lakes are glare ice, gotta be careful where you ride to keep machines cool. Calling for a bit of snow before the weekend. Even just a bit would help cool the machines. Snow is about knee deep in the bush and hard. South facing slopes are getting a little thin. All things considered, had tons of fun. Weather has been beautiful and the firm snow makes it easy to get around the bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browing3812 Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 I didn't realize there was even that much..... Debating on ATV or Sled now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArgyleRider Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Atv would suffice if you're planning to be on lakes and road. Probably sled if you're going to be in the bush much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
