Chittenden Reservoir

[Flewelling, Joel]

Just checked the Reservoir again tonight.  There is 2 1/4 inches measured with calipers.  The main reservoir was open water Thursday evening, but looked frozen tonight,  it will definitely be thinner than the ice at the ramp.

This afternoon the ice in front of the boat ramp was 3 1/4 inches. The new plate was 1 3/4 inches

Two of us tried skating the Chittenden Reservoir today, but with only one in a dry suit, we didn’t make it very far. The ice has warmed and is down to one or two pokes. About a hundred yards out from the fishing access a ridge has opened up with ¾” ice for about 6’. We didn’t cross. Someone before us did, but we decided to try Lefferts Pond instead. Again the ice was warm, smooth excellent skating with about 1/2” of snow but only one to two pokes. We couldn’t close the loop around, but still had a good skate.

 

Lastly I tried Gale Meadow Pond in Londonderry Vermont and was able to skate about one third of it on excellent ice. There were dark thin areas that had barely caught with ¾” ice, but other areas made a nice loop.

 

I doubt any of the places will survive the warming weather, but it was a fun day today.
