Still frozen with snow cover. Only accessible via snowmobile or some ATVs.
Talked with a couple people that snowmobiled in to Lake Owen yesterday. Fishing was great, 18″-20″ of ice. If your up to the adventure to get there the alpine lakes can be amazing to ice fish.
Hanging Lake had between 5″-10″ of good ice but did vary from one side of lake to other. Miller was not accessible today do to snow. As of Sunday had 8″-12″ of ice and fishing was good. As always conditions can change quick so use best judgment and be safe.
