You can drive safely everywhere on Devils Lake if you use the same caution as you do on all other lakes.

We have about two feet of ice. It has been well below zero most every morning and day time highs below zero or single digits at the most for over three weeks. It was -24 F on Sunday.

Do not drive under bridges and stay away from the area immediatly near them. Wind causes pressure on the ice creating current to flow through confined areas and weaken the ice.

I like to say that if you stay on somebody elses old trail you are OK, but you can never be too sure. I read in the paper that a guy drove on 5 inches of ice for like 300 yards, then continued to drive on 2 inches of ice for like 150 yards until he finally drove into open water. CRAZY. oh yah he was driving a full size ext cab chevy, 1/2 ton.

The races ruined one of my spots. There are races again this weekend on Creel Bay for Shiverfest. OOps there goes another spot.
