Ice Out on Lake Winnipesaukee for 2009

March 26th, 2009 by janelmartin

The official Ice-Out is the much anticipated date when the Mt Washington can navigate to all of its ports of call.  Lakes Region Association makes the official call and  has been as early as March 28 and as late as May 12. 

We are looking forward to the Ice-Out, and happy that spring has arrived, after such a long winter.  Watch the progress through the web-cams located around Lake Winnipesaukee. 

Around the Wakefield Inn the snow is melting and the spring bulbs are breaking through the surface in preparation for their beautiful display.  The animals scurry about, and the deer visit in early morning and at dusk to nibble on the grass that is uncovered. We have a great package to shake off the winter and bring in the spring called “Shake the Cabin Fever”
