Does anyone have any word on the ice lately? With all this rain, there must be enough water opening up in the next few days. Any shore water? any input? cheers!

yea i just did and the fella was out of the office for 2 days. On their website, it says they opened on the 27th, but on the phone message it says June 1. So in acouple of days if Banff Cruise Tours is open, the lake must be at least around the edges one would think.
