anyone know how 1st lake is looking/ i imagine with the warm temps alot of standing water....how thick is the ice???anyone know...does anybody know the earliest iceout on 1st lake? i wonder if this will be the year............

If you weren't such a sally and checked it out for yourself this weekend, you wouldn't have to ask! Get on the pipe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

55 views and thats the only reply.....its pretty sad........come on oldviperrider and pathfinder, hows the lake????

I was on it as late as wednesday and there is still plenty of ice, but its getting hairy getting on and off. With the melt going on and the rain happening, the level of the lake is rising steadily, therefore making the edges unstable. Sometimes you can find an area where the ice is settling on a high point and a bridge happens, but other than that you would have to launch across five or ten feet of open water in places. Running the length of the lake would get you to Magalloway road which is toast. Best shot at a ride now is East Inlet and most of that would be off trail high elevation, still adequate snow but shrinking fast.

Sorry for the delay in relying, I was at a OVSC :div20: board meeting in Ossipee, and just got back.

thanks pathfinder.....just wondering when i can troll some streamers for lakers on top!
larry v thinks im going to go sledding on it, what a fool!

Fool my ass, there were three sleds coming across First Lake when I came home from the village this morning. Temp got down below freezing last night and my truck was covered with snow this morning. You wont be trolling anytime soon!

that much ice does not go away too fast.
The guys on the sleds that you saw this morning must have BIG BRASS BALLS!

How was your breakfast at dubes?

Breakfast was bitchin, had a waffle with six pounds of whipped cream!

I think I'm going to polish my "brass balls" and take a rip on First, I will be sure to bring "spare" underwear"!

See MXZ1, who is the fool???? Like I said get on the pipe or go home!!!

larryv, i am not going to be the one who has to help you bail your sled out, im sure you can find some help up there, ill just sit back and watch martinsville and crack a couple cold cans.....its all good larry!!!!!!!!!!!
