 The Beltrami County Sheriff's Office is warning the public to stay off Upper Red Lake. This warning is due to extremely poor ice conditions that have developed and continue to worsen. In the past few days the warm weather and high winds have caused the ice to break up. Photos posted today on the Facebook page of JP's Corner Access on shows that the lake has many large areas of open water and what ice there is is very broken and mostly surrounded by open water. Official say it is not safe to go on Upper Red at this time. If you've enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News, please consider making a tax deductible contribution to Lakeland Public Television.
