Ice Thickness Update From the Boundary Waters

It's been a cold winter across the Boundary Waters region. Damn cold, in fact.  Temperatures hit -30 Fahrenheit from the Gunflint Trail to areas near Ely in the middle of February. Double-digit negative temperatures have become something of the norm this winter, dating back to the Jan. 1 trout opener in the BWCA Wilderness.  In this episode of the podcast, we talk about what ice thickness means for anglers and winter campers for the remainder of the season. One consideration is that auger extensions will become essential in many cases, as Chad Kieper from Gunflint Wilderness Guide Service shares with the podcast team.  This episode is supported by Tuscarora Lodge & Canoe Outfitters
