North Buck

Just wondering if anyone has ventured out to this lake . Is it driveable or do we have to walk out?

I was there yesterday on sled. Some people drove on a couple hundred yards but we spent 2 hours last night getting them unstuck. Everyone else left them out their to shovel by themselves. The truck had 4 chains on and was going anywhere!! 6-7" of light snow on 14-16" crust that a vehicle just punches through. Very nice people that were stuck. He gave me and my buddy 150 $ each for getting him out and couldn't thank us enough. I couldn't believe it. Anyways. Def sled or walk.

Dont think i could of took the money but good on you for helping them out.

I'm the same as you man. The obvious thing to is say " I can't take that." And I did. He insisted over and over so I ended up taking it. Your input is greatly appreciated!!!

I guess I forgot the AO rule of thumb. No details, stories or pics.

Thats great you helped out. I have done the same a few times and I remember I ran into a problem at Canyon creek one year and two trucks just sped by and I could of used some help. A local fella gave me a quick tug and away I went. Great guy and I think he had a shack there. 98% of people that ice fish are good and you get the odd few that are not at all nice. Anyway how was the fishin at buck?

They must be moving into the bays to spawn cause we only managed a few.

How about getting around on a quad?? Would it be possible or would a guy break through?

I'd rather have quad then a truck. You should be fine with a quad. I'm just about to get off baptiste as we speak and it's hot here. +4's all the way through sat and sunday. Truck will still be screwed but a quad will do the business.

We did it a week ago with qauds, the qauds did work but made it to our spots no problem. I was pulling a sled with all the gear in it as well.
