Looks like Pond Hockey is marching ahead...??
...there's a large area of ice staked off where it appears the rinks will be set up. This morning, there is a small tractor snow-blower and a couple of walk-behind snow blowers clearing the ice, presumably for the rinks. I guess one could conclude that the ice is safe in that area.
While there is ice from Meredith down to The Weirs, the small amount of snow cover makes it difficult to determine how safe it is...my guess is, not very. For example, there is a large oval expanse of open water off of the Upper Mile Point Road neighborhood in Meredith bay, (next to Meredith Marina, heading towards Weirs). Seems that while it might be safe along the shoreline, (assuming no dock circulators), the "middle" is still very risky.
