Default debris

It usually takes a few days after ice out to be clear of debris, trees, branches, docks and bob houses. A good wind blows most of it to shore, and as the water level drops, it becomes lodged on shore. Kindly, caring, shorefront landowners clean it up. If you come across something that presents a hazard, call Marine Patrol and they will have it removed. MP is our lake ambassador. They do all sorts of wonderful things, plus law enforcement. If you drop by HQ in Glendale, they'll do a courtesy safety check for you.
