Took a drive to Soldier Creek and Strawberry yesterday. Ice is pulling away from shore at the SC ramp and along the edges near the road from highway 40 to the main marina. The temps over the weekend were however quite cold as some of the area along the shore had refrozen especially south toward the restroom that sits on the west hill. I'll bet today's warm temps started the process again. It won't be long.
I did not go to the Aspen side, but it didn't look open from across the lake. Lots of people shore fishing the Ladders, Chicken Creek (both sides) and mosquito bay near the Strawberry bay marina. Not much else is open, but the ice is deteriorating quickly.
If you want my guess the ice will not be off by Thursday, but that is a guess only.
