Lee,
Real bad ice now on that particular wetland. Tom & I kept track the other day to see who would break thru the most....I was in the lead until dusk then he fell thru about six more times in a few minute span. Also, we had slush under the snow, which accumulated on the bottom of the Otter sleds, making it feel like you were trying to pull a chain out of set concrete - was a difficult outing that day to say the least :-)

Mike i can  empathize with you on the slush and ice build up on the bottom of the otter sled; been there and done that and it isnt any fun.   Good luck on the rat line and have a safe one....
