The lake is very safe in most spots. You will be able to find a larger area of safe passage than you will be able to find a field. For example, at Center Harbor, you can easily launch and find parking for your trailer. Yes, there is open water by the Mount Washington docks. Avoid that, but there are miles of untracked snow along with well worn paths. No doubt, there are spots nearer to you if you look around for lots of bob houses.

This year, the lake is safer than most. The open water you hear about is an exception, rather than the rule. Start educating your kids about ice safety. It is never fully safe. There is always open water to find. However, every kid should learn how to identify and stick the safe parts.

On another note, get your sledding in today (Sunday Jan 24)! The rain forecast for Monday will ruin most trails and make the lake undesirable until we get more snow.
