I have been told by some local snowmobilers the ice around the tomb area is still unsafe .

Went by Cedar Point and Marks Point today.  The ferry is still running and lots of open water about a half mile out.  No access to Marks Point from shore because of a huge gap of open water along the shore.  All of  Thunder beach is ice covered and all the way to the tomb.
Tree line is also up from Midland to Present, beyond that I'm not sure what the conditions are.

Did anyone make it to the tomb fishing in the last few days? I’ve got a few hrs tomorrow and would like to give it a shot!

Gotta love the die hards. Someone's gotta be the trailblazer I guess. I'm in no rush so I'll wait a bit longer.

I have the March break off and was hoping to venture out for lakers, im too nervous to take the sled out on the ice at this time of year so does anyone know a place I can park and walk out to laker grounds, assuming the ice is safe?  Also if anyone wants to join me for a hike out there, let me know.
Thanks
