| Trying to plan a fishing trip up to Ft. Prov area in early June. Has the Mackenzie broke up yet? Will there be icebergs from the lake? Any info is greatly appreciated. |

The lake is still covered in 4-5ft thick ice on our side. It will be breaking off 'bergs' for the next month. There will be ice on the lake Mid July this year!

| Fathers day weekend is usually good 1 year ferry even shut down after we left because of to much ice coming off lake and thats toward end of june. Make sure u lock everything up and hide it as u will not have it in morning just a word of advice. There was a big party in town after they got done with our sites guarenteed. |
