| CHRISTMAS TREES FROZEN INTO THE CHANNE ICEL... |
 |
| MARK THE ICE ROAD TO MADELINE ISLAND |
Thursday, 8:00 AM. 25 degrees F on the porch, wind SSW mostly calm with light to moderate gusts. The sky is overcast, the humidity is 84%, and the barometer is still trending down, now at 29.84"
Each winter, Bayfield's discarded Christmas trees are placed out along the Ice Road route to Madeline Island, and they are now in place, marking the route, which is essential in fog or blizzard conditions. The Ice Road still is not open, as the ice must freeze hard and deep for car and truck traffic. Snow must be plowed to promote freezing (hope the first plow driver wears a wet suit).
