The ice is nice

And finally we get some ice, there was enough ice a couple weeks ago but it was short lived and due to other activities I never made it out. Cold nights have resealed the lakes and we tried Conesus on Sunday, there was enough ice but not enough wind. Today was predicted to have higher winds so I met Ron at Mendon Ponds Park to check 100 Acre pond. 4" of black ice was enough so we rigged and were able to make a few passes in the inconsistent wind. It wasn't great but it was good just being out on the ice with a taste of better conditions ahead. Here is a picture of Ron with his ice sailer out on the pond.
