Also, any information about snow depth on the ice/on the islands? I know earlier in the season it was pretty bare, but I'm guessing with the recent storm (and maybe a few more inches before next weekend), it might be pretty deep, and we don't have snow shoes.
I think Tavern 27 rents snow shoes. I had never used snow shoes before but really was glad we had them two weeks ago when we walked across the ice for about a mile to our cottage.
