Hay Bay Ice

[Peter Van Rossem Sr]

Just checked the ice at HAY BAY...

- ABOUT ⅛ INCH OF SNOW ON TOP.

- A FEW RIPPLES FROM WIND BLOWN WATER (NOTHING THAT YOUR BLADE WOULD FEEL)

- LOOKS JUST LIKE JOHN AND I HAD LEFT IT FROM A WEEK AGO, NO BIG BUMPS VISIBLE

- GOING TO BE SAILED TOMORROW BY JOHN AND I.

- WILL REPORT AFTER SAIL

- Just a light snow happening now with no wind.

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!  Hope everyone has a wonderful 2026 year!

Trenton report.  

Happy new year!~!!

Jason and I went out sailing today.  SR21 and SR??.  First time out for me this year.   Jason was out boxing day ... Boxing day had a mirror finish and a little thinner ice than today.  Nice. He Still didn't break the target speed ( ask him).   

Today Jay drilled several spots from south shore to Indian island. ... Minimum 7in.    We went up to the north shore and East to Dufferin St.  We didn't drill anymore  cuz why bother..  No drifts,  ½ to ¾  ripples all over, and there are pressure cracks with heaving, so maybe a little rattlely for a DN but the SR's had no issues.  As usual take it easy till you know the lay of the land (ice).  Wind was west 7 to 15 kts.

BTW where are all the boats.   Only saw 2 DNs on the north shore.

Thanks
