Ice Out March 25 2015

By Steve Laliberte

It is official!  Birch Lake is open.  We had a string of warm weather 10 days ago.  That led most to feel the lake would open quickly.  Then it cooled off.  Yesterday the final packs were overtaken and by the end of the day all the ice was gone.

I have not walked the lake yet.

Any signs of fish kill?

2015 Ice Out

By Stephen Laliberte

It is Sunday night.  It was 70 today.  The ice on the lake is getting blue.  The aerator opening in getting big.  Ice out is near.

Last year the ice went out on -- I don't know?  Much later, I think it was April.

Hey BirchLakers, when do you think ice out will be?
