ice out

[Captain Ron]

can anyone tell me the ice out dates for last year on bsl @waukenabo. i am not coming home until the last moment captain ron

check out the minnesota DNR, they usually track the dates average for lakes around the state, and BSL is one of the lakes.

with this cold weather, and lots of ice, I would bet on may 5th this year, unless it gets real warm and satys warm.

last year on my lake, near palisade, the ice went out about april 10th.
