4/26/14 – Today’s Sawbill Lake ice measurement is 27″. We’ve been stalled at that depth for several days now, thanks to the latest blizzard. The sun is out today, but highs are expected to be in the high 30s, which doesn’t help the melting much.


Jessica and Leif might be getting a little bored with the routine ice measuring chore, causing them to look for ways to make it more interesting.

It’s hard to believe that canoes will be embarking here in a few weeks. (Photos by Nils John Anderson)
