Expect a cold and snow this weekend and ice on the water. It is likely not safe enough to walk on, as last week there was thawing along the shore with the warm weather.

There is a Hwy 66 and Hyatt Lake Rd webcam that may help if you’re planning an adventure up here to cross country ski or snowshoe. Fishing is probably off the table for now.
