We were on Ethel just a few days ago and there was only 7-8" there, and Sante last night. Sante only had 6".
She will be a while before cold freezes up, especially with a mild week this week.

Guys out front of the ski hill, roughly a foot of ice, 90' of water, jigging spoons and having a blast, non stop action a few days ago.
Trucks on it too but again be careful.

You can park at the day campground or campground at frenchmans bay, walk or quad out.

The ice thickness is very inconsistent right now, there is only 6” of measured ice in front of the Marina and Provincial Park where we’ve been fishing the last couple of days. There were about 6 vehicles on the ice in Frenchman Bay on Wednesday where apparently there is 12” plus, thankfully the upcoming week of cold weather should thicken the ice up a bit but it will be a few weeks before I personally brave the lake in my truck. I did not measure the ice thickness close to shore to see about parking on the ice but imagine it’s probably closer to the 12” range.
