Agreed -35C is super cold but, the above mentioned article by Miller & Mackay noted that bottom bubblers and surface (fountain) aerators managed to keep an open water area (sometimes small) in lakes of northewst Alberta Peace River Region during winters of 1994 thru 1997 dispite temps down to -30C to -40C which are temps similar to what Wood is seeing this winter.
