How's Raven Lake for ice? Or any lakes in that area.

Thanks in advance!

the dawg

It should be pretty close. It is one of the first to freeze up there along with Oxtongue.

Mach's right, I'm sure its frozen over now, but stay off! most were open just a week ago...

I agree with Dude, but all lakes are different, Our lake was open last Sat as well but made 41/2" of new ice as of last night at 5pm. I'll be running it on Saturday.

that's you though.... when there is only 5 inches I try to stay off as it probably isnt 5 all the way across. When I'm on the lake I want to know that if the sled breaks down I can walk to shore and not hit soft spots. I like 8 inches of white ice personally, which should be good for next weekend. You're a local though, so you know that lake pretty well... there are lakes around me that I would run this weekend for the same reason. still not recommending it... the water's still high and moving fast in places.

Correct dude and I will also be running just off shore this weekend, I have no intention on checking the plugs out in the middle.

WHITE ICE..... White ice is the weak ice. You want good clear stuff. I live by the if you dont' know don't go rule. I wil be on our lake this weekend if there is enough but I will only run tight to shore and stay in one section of the lake.
