[Giuga10]

All of the ponds around my place are completely frozen and seem to have maybe 1 or 2 inches on already. Things are looking good! (Located in Markham)

[Captain Barty]

A few of the speckle/splake/rainbow puddles in the Bancroft/Dorset/Haliburton  should be ready to rock this weekend if you're comfortable being on 3 inches....

[J'snest]

I think you will find some good solid ice on the smaller lakes. We have had cold weather all thia week and night temperatures as low as -20C.

[NADO]

Who needs to go all the way up north? We got ice right here in waterloo, I wouldnt call it safe but its ice lol.

 

Lake 1:

 

This little bay in the pond has had ice for a few weeks. You can see the different colored ice in the distance where it broke up and only froze again a few days ago.

 

 

Lake 2

 

The ice here was thicker but there was cracks everywhere and this ice was more like pack ice.
