15 Jan 2022 - Checking Ice Thickness
First ice check of the season. Really poor video, but that’s beside the point.
Found 4-6” of snow, no slush on the ice, 3” of steel ice, an inch or so of poor ice and then another 9 inches of steel ice.
So 12-13” of ice in the 3 spots I checked, but not 100% steel ice. Would be perfect ice carousel conditions
