Mark Your Calendars: Chris Cold to Present at the Next Quiet Lakes Association Meeting on July 20th at the Town Hall

Chris Cold of the WDNR Wildlife Education Department will present on "Birds of Prey / Raptors of the Great Lakes Region".    As we have seen in the past, Chris is among the best speakers around and always brings a first class supporting cast, one of whom is shown below.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Reminder: Quiet Lakes Association meeting this Saturday, May 25th at 9am at Boulder Lodge

We look forward to seeing you at the meeting this Saturday at Boulder Lodge.   Our guest speaker will be Tiffiney Kleczewski of Flambeau Engineering.   She will present her findings from our 5-year update to our Aquatic Plant Management Survey done last summer.

In the meantime, I thought you'd enjoy this picture of fishing opener at Red Deer Lodge!!!!!!!!!!

Two Straight Years of Ice Out Records!

In 2012, we set a record for the earliest Ice Out on March 21st.    This year, 2013, set a new record with the latest Ice Out on May 10th.   See the history of our Ice Out dates back to 1955 below, along with Shari Peterson's picture of Teal Lake now ice free.

Ice Out on Teal - - - Not Yet!

Last year Ice Out occured on November 30th.    Thanks to Mary Witt for this picutre on December 4th from Elephant Rock.   Although the temperature was 25, the sun and wind keep the ice at bay.

Hail in November

Note the pea-sized hail on Teal last weekend
