..many of my friends have given up on the ski-flying. Probably figure the ice is unsafe...or maybe they have someplace they NEED to be on wheels....
..figured I'd let 'em know I'm still on the ice and take guesses on when it will be unusable.
...maybe I'll bring this back to life in 2014.........
April 29th, 2013 Lake Hood Ice depth: measured 70 feet offshore from the Lake Hood West Shoreline near Katmai Air's dock....
.....19 inches of clear ice, covered by 3 inches of snow/slush, covered by 1/2 inch of ice, covered by about 3 inches of white snow.
19 inches!!!!
Global warming! just like Al Gore said!
