It's been about a decade, but we got some decent-enough ice last week.

I wrote it up and posted a bunch of photos and videos I took of it for anyone interested:

If anyone wants to read some more about iceboating in general, I covered it for the first time way back in 2011 for my newspaper, a digital copy of which can be paged through here:

Also there's this fun video put together by Peter Slack during the last time we saw ice here, in 2015:
