Pt3189 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Any idea which part of Lake where search is going on ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Z Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 No idea about Sturgeon, but I am kinda surprised that there has been so little in the news about the girl killed on Six Mile last weekend. Sounds like she was overdriving her headlight and hit shore, but that is just speculation on my part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pt3189 Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 I have heard nothing about six mile. I woke up this morning to noticeably darker ice on Belmont Lake . Think I will cut some holes today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate it when this happens.everytime. Unsafe?? WTF one man was picked up by a passing boat. Am i reading the wrong stories? They show a picture of a large OPP boat. That implies very open water and not a case of weak ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea what her experience level was at? I would assume, being from that area that this wasn't her first snowmobile or ride, but I am curious just the same.

However it's easy enough to run up on shore way too fast at night. I have done it myself and were it not for me very quickly picking a good line it could've easily ended badly.

Puzzleboy Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) Says there was another snowmobile travelling with her; that person must have a good idea what happened. Night time on any lake, you gotta know where you are, the lake conditions, and where you're going. 24, unreal.
