The east end of Mainchip Is.

 I found 6" of ice here on Five Mile Bay in front of Dunroe Is.  Taken Jan.20.17

 I found 7" of ice on the snowmobile trail on Five Mile Bay just out from the entrance of the Menominee Chanel.  Taken Jan.20/17

 This shows the snowmobile trail from Glen Burney into the mouth of the menominee with Isabel Is. center left.  This dark area which was open water last week is ice about 1 1/2 thick.  Taken Jan.20/17

   This is the range just west of Slope Is. in Parry Sound Harbour.  I found 6" of ice here.  The ice is very poor in front of Point Pleasant and over toward the swing bridge.  There are large areas of open water towards the mouth of the Sequin River and Bob's Point.  Taken Jan.20/17

    Here are some picture from my weekly trip into town.  I was hoping for some sun shine but at least it didn't rain.  The mild weather and rain forecast for this weekend will reduce the ice coverage until the weather cools next week.  Taken Jan.20/17
