Snow & ice in early March…

By

For those of you that are wondering about ice and snow conditions at the lake, Theresa, from Nicatous Lodge writes “We only got 3 to 4 in. Fri. and it rained mostly Sat. but didn’t stop the sledders on Sun. Groomer is out now. Our trails are still good! There is still plenty of ice on the lakes, a few soft spots.”

Since the lodge is located on the north end of the lake, we don’t know what the roads look like getting to the south end. If anyone went last wekend, please email me or post the conditions to Facebook.

Thanks to Theresa for the update.

The lake – mid February.

By

Donna B just posted an update on Facebook and I thought I would copy it here for those of your that don’t use our Nicatous Facebook page.

Donna posted the following: “Hi everyone  Leroy and I just spent 4 days on the lake – nice weather around 18 inches of ice on the lake.We was able to drive into camp you can snowmobile if you have a sled that don’t over heat. When we came out Friday after noon there was spots on the 32-00 that was melting with dirt spots and the 45-00 was muddy. See photos of Leroy 16 inch trout and the lake.”

What is it like at the lake right now?

By

Angus M.  just posted on the Nicatous Lake Facebook page to let everyone know what it is like at the lake right now. He posted the following: “Drove in to camp this past weekend. Road is OK 35 mph slightly rutted. Ice 5-7″ on Saturday thickened up by Monday. 4 wheelers would have been better than the snowmobiles we brought. very little snow 3-4″ max. Kids skated on the clear black ice patches. Only 1 eagle sighted. Very cold”

Thanks so much for the information, Angus.

Winter…

By

Winter is here, but as winter’s in Maine go (at least in our part of the state)—this one has not been too bad. I guess it is all relative though because if I still snowmobiled, I would be hoping for lots more snow than we have. I haven’t heard too much from anyone about ice fishing or ice depth at the lake. We had some warm, rainy weather this winter but also a lot of really cold weather so I imagine that the ice is pretty thick. If anyone has a report on the ice, fishing or anything else about the lake, please use the contact form on this site and I will report it here.

I did just hear from Ron Pelletier who snowmobiled the area a few days ago. He said that the Stud Mill road is plowed all the way and that the 32-00-0 road is groomed for snowmobiling. He reported that the trails are not all that good with some icy and bare spots. He and his fellow snowmobiler’s had lunch at Nicatous Lodge, so if anyone is in that area, it is good to know that food and gas are available.

Thanks to those who have commented on the site changes. It’s nice to know that folks are visiting the site and like the new look.  :-) I still have plans for a forum and a photo gallery and hope to get a chance to work on those soon. If anyone has a photo to share, it is now possible to upload them on the contact page. I will add your photo’s to the photo page when it is done. Remember, too, that this is a blog-style page now and if you would like to make any comments to this post (or any other), just click on  “Leave a comment”  that appears under each post.

Changes

By

Well, you may notice a change to the site. I had a computer crash and decided to buy a MAC instead of another PC. That meant my old site building software didn’t work anymore. I am familiar with WordPress to build sites so I decided to give it a whirl on this one. I think it looks pretty good! What do you think??

With this site, you will be able to add comments to anything that I write on the news page.  I am also going to put a forum up in the next few days where all of you will be able to put your two cents in, with topics like road conditions to recipes. Stay tuned…
