You miss the point

Ice report from Cattle Landing to Mink Island
My wife and I made the trek out on foot this morning.
Looked a little tricky getting on the ice at the Cattle Landing docks so we went about 100 yds to the left where there is easier access just...

Good grief.
Does every post have to devolve into snide political comments? Gets pretty tiresome, frankly.

Mink Island update
Since NYC and the markets were shut down today, I took the suddenly open calendar as an opportunity to load in kerosene for the winter on Mink. Power is out - but I knew that. All I have to do is...

Why do you have to hijack threads?
There are plenty of other sites to go if you want to debate political topics of the day. This started as an interesting LAKE ORIENTED post about lake home prices and market dynamics. Sadly, though...

mind those crank up docks
Those of you who have already pulled up your docks for the season need to make sure you tied off both sides. Not so many winters ago we had a decent blow and it bent and destroyed a bunch of dock...

One of the lessons learned from the real estate bubble is that folks that don't have skin in the game are more likely to default their mortgage and throw the keys on the table if their home's value...

I'll second that.
I have always found the Gilford town clerk's office to be very prompt and efficient. Pleasure to deal with.

Smart money??
Conditions on the lake are highly variable this year. Some bays are well locked in and have seen ample activity (Alton Bay, 19 Mile Bay to name two). I've heard reports of 10" or more of ice. More...

No, I don't think there is such a list. But if you're looking for reports on specific parts of the lake, a lot of members do post updates throughout the season. You focused on any area in...

Yes, it's owned by the Town of Meredith and there's a public parking lot directly above it. No ramp, well, because the slope is so steep there it wouldn't be feasible. And what's so wrong with...

How to keep holes from freezing over...
A few thoughts:
1) If there is ample snow on the lake, then after you set your line, simply fill the hole with snow and mound it up a foot or more all the way around. The snow insulates well and...
