Location description
There is soft ice on the water. There is still evidence of the ice fisher people. Only able to get air temperature. It is quiet. One adult and one small child visiting the lake. There were several piles of dog feces on the dock again. I now bring a shovel and bags. There were also beer cans on the FSR road in. This is new activity, I started water testing the end of October 2022. Some one(s) has come in and cleaned up some of the blow downs, looks like for firewood.
