A Frozen Lake Nebagamon
It’s that time of year again… the Annual Icebreaker Contest is here!
The lake is frozen, the countdown is on! When will Lake Nebagamon finally surrender to spring?
We’re armed with nearly 70 years of data, which you can view here:
-
The earliest ice breakup ever was March 21 (2012).
-
The latest? A stubborn May 14 (2013).
-
And as of now, there are approximately 22 inches of ice on the lake.
Monitoring this frozen drama is our very own Andy Mack, the Official Lake Nebagamon Ice Recorder. Andy will alert us the exact moment the ice disappears. This year is extra special, as it’s his final season as Ice Recorder before retiring! Rumor has it Andy has perfected the art of ice whispering, so don’t be surprised if he starts negotiating with the lake this year to speed things along.
