Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Pond Boss Michigan Ice reports?

Brian - Has the wind blown any bare ice areas on your pond?. If so ice should be 4"-6" by Sat. If drifted snow is around the edges test those areas carefully because ice does not freeze as fast under deeper snow cover along the edges. I shovel shoreline areas where I want to enter pond and ice freezes faster and thicker below snow free areas. I will check my ice thickness at noon. since my pond is sheltered by evergreens ice thickness is usually 2"-3" less than exposed ponds.
