Jim at Schmidts Landing would be the one to talk to.
I guess I would check to see if the Ice is gone first! It was still pretty thick a week ago. Plenty of maps at most any of the resorts.
Bring warm clothes. My daughter lives about 50 miles south of there, and it snowed at their place over this weekend.

The opener is not looking to good as of now. We had close to a foot of snow yesterday and they are predicting more snow or rain thru tuesday. The lake already has a no wake posting due to the high water and all this wet stuff isn't going to help. A lot of the boat ramps are flooded and not useable. There have also been reports of a lot of debris floating in the water, such as decks, docks, propane tanks and siding, etc. from cabins that were damaged. We had a lot of strong winds when the ice was coming out and it wrecked a lot of cabins. I have also heard that the ice actually cut a trailer house in half.
