Bombardier season is here.

(1/3) > >>

Cranman:
Well. getting back to bombardiers........ I guess the season is here. Doesn't look too promising for making good ice with all the warm temps but if you can't get out in January ,you aren't going to get out at all. There is still some slush out there at fresh cracks and near shore in deep snow. Swamps are bad and aren't likely to improve unless we get real cold weather. Anyway be safe and have fun.

Swamp Dawg:
Yes the Ice isn't too great yet, but I did find quite a few spots on the lakes where the slush has frozen right to the top.  The most I've seen so far is 22", probably half blue and white ice.

Averyman:
We have beautiful snow on the fields out here on the prairie, about a foot deep, soft and smooth.  Went for a couple of runs with the family last weekend and they really enjoyed it. The snow has melted a bit and should be firmer now, maybe we can get up on top and a little more speed as it was really lugging in high gear before. Machine is really running good for a 56 year old....

You guys are really lucky.  Other than the guys in Colorado and a few other areas, us folks in the US are looking at bare fields.  My farm fields are soggy and wet from rain.  We've had temperatures running 30 degrees above normal and there is no body of water with ice on it and no field with snow!  :(

Here is my backyard . . . where the heck is the snow????  That standing water out there is not a pond or lake, that is excessive rain that pooled.
