hunt fish repeat Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 I drove out last night but it was in a 2 wheel drive s-10- drove the wheeler out last weekend and checked the ice with the auger every 100' or so I felt confident it was safe where I drove. I know 10" is fine for the s-10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smeese Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Fixed it for you. So did anyone hear what happened on lake Washington today? Hope so. Not that I'm smart but lets park closer to the landing when the ice is only 8-9 1/2 inches. It takes brains i guess.I saw many people drive out. I guess 9 inches is safe to drive on but not in my book. Oh by the way they fell threw the ice where they were parked. Yup takes brains.
