The saga continues. The ice measures 6-8 inches, which should be safe for pedestrians. Yesterday they rescued 50 people off UpperRed Lake. Three were rescued by boat, the others walked off after search and rescued made a bridge. Apparently the wind on the open water cracked the ice and caused it to drift away from the rest of the pack.

The resort that allowed these fisherman onto the lake has closed their access at least until Monday. And no wheel houses on the ice until Christmas. County sherif says don't go on the ice. We are forecast to have below freezing weather for the rest of the week. Will report ice thickness this weekend
