Sorry this is a day late. Went to Strawberry on Monday (holiday). After all the slush reports from Saturday, I took a pair of snow shoes. Didn't need them. They rode in the sled the whole day. You could see were wheelers/snow machines had been bogged and it looked terrible, but the top layer had frozen up. It was like walking on a sidewalk - opaque with a little skiff on top. Went out of the Strawberry marina, north a few hundred yards. In 10 minutes I had 2 nice rainbows. It slowed from there. Kept 3 rainbows for the girls at work. Turned back 2 more rainbows and 2 cutts. Beautiful day, no wind, reasonably warm - though the ice holes kept freezing up. What a great state - open water down in the valleys but the ice won't be off Strawberry any time soon. Take your pick soft or hard water.
