SUNY Cortland W.H. Parks Family Environmental and Outdoor Education Center

With the winds picking up and causing drifts, it was tough to get a good measurement of our overnight snow. Between 11-14.

After a fresh snow fall.

Curious about ice fishing?

Amazing foggy morning sunrise. The lake is groaning and echoing as it is expanding and making ice this morning.

Thursday’s time out. There is a light misty rain falling this morning.

Your Wednesday Wait a Minute! You can hear and see the ice shifting.

With the increased traffic of all forms on the lake here is a reminder that SUNY Cortland has bubblers (to protect their docks from ice and keep water open) at both Antlers and Camp Huntington. At Antlers the bubbler is in front of the Casino and at Camp Huntington there are two bubblers on the South Bay side. Keep a good distance away to protect yourself from becoming a polar bear.

Ice is beginning to skim the shorelines. Current forecasts show warmer temperatures later this week. If the winds remain low, some of the ice may stick around.

Ice is starting to form, will be interesting to see how long the ice in takes this year.

Morning shadows.

New tracks in camp this morning. Guesses on who was visiting?

It’s a good day to reflect

Happy Thanksgiving to all!
