Try using the search function and looking for the lakes you are interested in. Should be able to find tons of info that way.....I know it's always helped me find the information I desired

I've been to a few lakes in around St. Paul this week and they had 14" of ice.

Most lakes north of red deer are driveable with caution. 12 to 16" of ice. This is a general quote. Some lakes have underground creeks running in them, so do not use this as a quote for all lakes. I have been at a lake in the St. paul area in late Jan when the temps were -30 for 3 weeks and the lake we were on we broke thru the ice. You just never know. Be carefull out there.

Not very many big fish in there any more. Not worth fishing. JMO.

Out at Fawcett lake this weekend. Lots of snow and flood water. On the east side there were a couple people with trucks. Mostly on packed trails. There was about 14" of packed snow and ice here. Had the quad out and explored further. Got stuck lots in the flood water and snow. Drilled holes along the way and found 8" of ice everywhere. Lots of springs/open holes.
