I found 8" of ice here at the east marrows of the Indian Dock Channel.  Taken Jan.13/19

 I found 8" of ice in the middle of Five Mile Bay on the white ice near the snowmobile as well as the whole length from The Indian Dock Channel.  I found 7" of black ice at the formerly open pool in the center of the bay.  Taken Jan. 13/19

Please note that there is no access to the south channel by snow mobile from Parry sound because of the trials being closed over Parry Island and a bubber at the boat launch at Glen Burney Marina.  Some people are looking into this and hopefully a resolution can be found.  I will keep you posted.
