Wow that went quick, I was out last weekend and we were driving on the ice out in the bay north of kinbrook. You could see the ice go downhill throughout the day, in the morning it was ok by the time the sun went down the ice had started to leech. I suspected it would have been a little longer since there was 2 feet of ice.
