Hope everyone had a great holiday season! Reports coming in, there is alot of open water near Frontier, and we can still see open water between Clementson and Silver Creek. There are alot of houses now sitting near the river in the Baudette Bay. So there is good ice in some places. Word is CAUTION! Maybe we'll run up to Frontier and take some pictures tomorrow! Only good thing I can say, is early ice-out?? Never heard of so many areas of open water at this time of the year. Remember, the river was not completely frozen over when we got snow, and I-Falls released more water to increase the water levels during the "freeze-up" time.
