Another Mystery Individual Sighting!!

Another Mystery Individual Sighting!!A fellow ice boater in Montana just reported another sighting of the culprit lurking by that beat-up old Skeeter with a new paint-job. This Yeti really gets around; at least he did in his youth. I believe this is the only picture in existence where his face is not covered. He looks very inbred but seems pretty happy about something. Is there some news he is keeping from us?

Picture found in People section!

2005 Williams Bay swap meet

2005 Williams Bay swap meetI've just returned from the Williams Bay swap meet. The weather was great and there were some good deals and advice to be had. Many thanks to Bob & Jane Pegel and the many vendors that make the meet what it is. I posted some pictures in the gear section of the image galleries.

Ice Report, Lake Christina, Ashby MN

I drove past the legendary Milepost 8 on Lake Christina, Ashby, MN this morning.

Conditions: 45 degrees F, calm winds.

Observations:

The lake is open water. No signs of a freeze in the immediate forecast.

Yeehaa.. don't let yer coot throw yaThere were about a million, perhaps 1.5 million coots sitting on the water. It certainly explains the consistency of the lake bottom, (for those of us who've made water landings there, we already knew) :)

Details as things cool down

It's gonna be great!
