 The ice on Kineras bay is breaking up.  Winter returns tomorrow with up to 2" of snow and cold  in the forecast.  That will halt the melting for a few days.  Taken Apr.27/18

 Looking west down Five Mile Bay near Dunroe Is.  I found 10" of fairly solid ice here.  With the downgrade in the weather forcast I think it will be Sunday before this is clear.  Taken Apr.24/18

Wednesday 18 April 2018

 I found 10" of soft white ice here on Five Mile Bay off Dunroe Is.  The ice has many snow drifts about 6'" high which made for slow going.  If the weather forcast holds this should be gone around the end of next week.  Taken Apr.18/18


 I passed the contractor boat heading out to check the ice approaching Three Mile Point.  Taken Apr.18/18
 There are some boats in the water at Glen Burney Marina.  Taken Apr.18/18

Back home on Kineras Bay I found 13" of soft white ice with 2" of slush on top.  Taken Apr.18/18
