Skate Skiing May 5, 2008 on Burntside Lake, Ely, MN. It is a late year for ice out. The big lakes are frozen. Not the best for Fishing Opener in a few days, but great for skiing. Will winter ever end?

  • I can see my cabin :)

  • The ice was still a foot thick but perforated or candled. It was a cold morning so the surface ice was solid but by afternoon you might have fallen through even a foot of candled ice. As the lake melts the shallow spots open up first so if you are not careful you could end up wet but not swimming. If you wait until the sun softens the surface by noon or so you might end up wet and swimming in very cold water with almost no way out as the ice just disintegrates.

  • I wonder how thick the ice was?

  • STEVE YOU ARE NUTS!!!
