A look at some blue water at the western end of Seven Mile Narrows.  Despite the open water here there is still lots of thick ice.  I snowmobiled into town yesterday probably for the last time this season.  The melt is just starting.  Taken Apr.4/19

 These two photo were taken near the western mouth of the Indian Dock Channel.  There is bad ice at this point where the by pass trail comes out.  There is another trail that goes about 500' further out.  Taken Mar.31/19
