Ran to McDonalds for breakfast. On the way back I saw a permanent shanty with a quad parked next to it way out in the middle. More or less in the direction of the east side of 3rd Reef or the southern tip of Center Reef. I hope to check the ice tomorrow and will report what I find...

Also, looking out from the McDonalds at Gladstone, it looked like most of the southern half of the bay had froze over too...

The bay south of Gladstone was still mostly open water yesterday, so take it easy folks. Reports at the shop today were 4 to 7 inches of ice on the north end. Good black ice. Quads and sleds crossing the bay from the yellow gate.
