Well the lake frooze over the night after having been ice free yesterday. I gave it a shot, but didn’t get far.

Our normal launching site was not an option.

A couple of meters of three millimeter ice by the beach.

To the west, ice thickness that prevented the paddle from breaking through.

Not that you need a coffee break after five minutes, but I could not land here either.

And to the east, surprise, ice.

Back to base camp.
