Ice Goes Off Smaller Lakes

The ice when out of Hooker Lake were the Tall Pines Yurt is located on April 16th and sometime during the night of the same day Little Ollie Lake's ice disappeared. The winner of this years "Ice Out" contest on Little Ollie Lake is Jason Sulllivan Chippewa Falls. Jason prize for the closes guess is a Little Ollie Lake T-shirt. Besides the smaller lakes ice going out other sure signs of spring we have seen are yesterdays sighting of a flight of geese headed north, several robins, the return of the eagles and the appearance of pussywillows.

As far as the larger lake ice- Poplar, Hungry Jack, Iron Lakes, etc., it still about a week or so before they will be ice free.
