Got another outing today here in Thunder Bay.Still over 2' of ice with minimal Snow cover.Before you start packing your bags to come up,you might want to check forcast.They are predicting 20 cm of Snow tonight.Winter is still in full force here.

Yes there is miles and miles of ice.You could have a 20 mile course easy.
