Has anyone seen ATVs or snowmobiles go out at 2nd line on Cooks Bay? I usually walk out but I'm using an ATV now. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Might not get a reply mentioning whether or not the ice is "safe". May want to ask for conditions,or if anyone has seen any ATV travel. jmo

I was out on my atv on Saturday from there. i was on about 6 - 7 inches of ice but the first place we checked had 5 inches. Donny at hotbox huts told me there was a pretty big pressure crack forming south of there so i didn't venture too far. i just went straight out from his huts to 35fow.

5 days ago there was a side by side with tracks out of second line.

Might have been owned Hotbox Huts, not sure but it was at the huts and out towards the middle of the bay several times that day.

Thank you for everyone's responses. I did go out yesterday. There were a few machines atvs and snowmobiles out and about for a Tuesday... One operator was pulling huts out with an atv... Measured to 7 to 8 inches, maybe 2-4 of black ice. Didn't see too many fisherman out deeper. I stopped around 31 fow. I felt comfortable to stay among everyone else... Appreciate the feedback.
