Will do Bill!

I spent the weekend clearing some brush with my sons - a couple hours each day. The dam is terribly over grown with brush, saplings and trees - no one has touched it in 10+ years.

you can finally see the pond from the corner of the dam


we have a long, long way to go


Outlet is still an ice funnel, lots of flow from the melting snow and ice


My little helper


We didn't do any ice fishing and the ice might be be unsafe after this string of warm weather blows through the next week. I already had as much as 3" of water on top of the ice.
