The houses should be going out on Lake Minnetonka later this week.

The last few days we have been out on Lake Minnetonka plowing about 6" of snow off the lake. Now with this colder weather it will help make more ice.

The ice depth on Lake Minnetonka was only 5-6" when we went out on Thursday to start plowing.  We got about half of the road plowed and an area to ice fish. Then on Saturday we plowed the rest of the road and touched up the fishing area. Now this morning (Sunday) I checked the ice, and we now have 8-9" of ice.

I will keep an eye on the weather, but I think I will start pulling houses out later this week. Once the houses get out, we will shuttle people back and forth from the boat launch with my side by side and trailer.
