Default Report from Wolfeboro, W. Alton and Rattlesnake Island

I have been in the area since Friday night, just waiting for snow so we can take the snowmobile out on the lake. Island Sib and I did go out a bit yesterday and the lake was very very frozen, no slush anywhere. It was extremely rutty with small patches of thin snow. There were very few people out there with those conditions. It was very cold and windy, however not bad out on the sled.

Today is a different story; of course we go home today. We woke up to snow and the noise of an enormous plow (downtown Wolfeboro). That driver is going to make sure there is not one snowflake on the ground. He just keeps going back and forth.

We will get the snowmobile out on the lake for a bit today. If you are going out for the first time, it may look smooth, but the uneven deep ruts are still underneath the light snow cover. Hopefully we will get 8 inches of snow and all will be well!

Signing off and going sledding!
