We have been watching the surface of Carlin Lake since the middle of November, as the ice cover has expanded and and then receded with changing temperatures. Several days, ice cover appeared really close, and then sunshine would make it shrink.
But, now it's cold out, and forecast to be much colder this week. The lake was definitely ice-covered this past weekend.
You will see that this ice date is a little later than average for the years I have been keeping track. I don't think anyone is going to want to venture out for a while, though!
