I was at Harrila landing yesterday the ice was locked up all the way acrossed to little bear island and to the hole in the wall. looking south towards the borads the was ice out to about the south end of sandy. Looking south from long island bridge there appeared to be ice out to chase point and all the way down to the barber's pole. I don't think i would go out to far on any of this ice right now but we are definaly gettin there. For those of us in the southern part of the state last firday I was doing doing ice rescue traing with the Manchester fire dept we were training on cystal lake and lake massebisic. An in both lakes there appeared to be about 2 to 3 inches of ice where the wate was shallow but after walking out into the lake over deeper water or where there was any current at all we esaily broke though in places where the was and inch or less of ice. So be carful out there
