Default Dock damage

Made it out to Sleepers island Friday night. Arrived to find a 4"x6"post snapped on the end of my crib dock along with damage to the frame. The end of the crib has also shifted approximately 12-18"
Within an hour of our arrival, a huge ice flow came through that would have prevented us from getting to the island. It was gone within a couple of hours.

I noticed 2 of my neighbors sustained damage to their docks as well.

Rough spring for ice damage due to the strong winds.

Sorry to hear about the dock damage. It should all be history in a few days.

How did you get to/from the island?
