Freeze-up is about 10 days earlier than normal. Even listening to other trappers on the SBX at night we can hear they are experiencing it early also. "BeaverCrow" said it's the earliest he can remember. "Jack Pine" said he was out in his canoe and the Swans were on the lake and the next morning it was frozen solid. We all miss not hearing Don Taylor on the SBX. He died last month of lung cancer at 80.
The wind came up this afternoon and the clankering of ice pieces is really loud.
