Ice Report- January 7, 2014

We had blown the snow off Lake Street before the Deep Freeze so it froze down quite well. We also pulled houses on Archers Ave on Saturday and Sunday morning without any problems and people drove to and from their houses. I put a few rentals out for the weekend and they were on good ice.

Today we plowed Lake Street and it has frozen down well, at least on the road. We also plowed driveways off Lake Street and we will let them freeze down until Thursday, when we will begin pulling private houses along Lake Street. We do not have Walleye Drive or Perch Parkway yet and I can not promise when they will be done. We will start on them next week.

If you pull your house out, you will be allowed to drive your vehicle to and from your house. If you want to fish in a portable, use a 4 wheeler or snowmobile. Do not go exploring in your vehicle. Stay on the roads. Today, I was walking about 10 yards off Lake Street and stepped into a 12 inch pile of snow, slush, and water. It is NOT all frozen.

As in the past, pulling is first come/first served. Get on the list when you get up here and we will get to you as soon as possible. We have plowed the lot across the highway and lakeside, but if you want to speed the process up and cushion your pulls, please shovel the snow  away from in front of your house before we get to your house. We appreciate it and it is easier on your house. It is supposed to be really nice this weekend so it would be a great time to pull your house or rent one of ours. We still have a few openings for this weekend so give us a call.
