Yeah, the Chena's open below the powerplant here in Fairbanks, and there's always a few open leads on the Salcha if you're willing to drag your boat behind my Skandic.:nyanya: Gad this month is dragging by and we still have too much to go after that too.

The Hudson, the passiac and the great lakes should all be open but I guess you have to have enough gas $$ to cover the trip

Whittier is ice free and just 50 miles away; pick a calm day and take her for a spin.

I was out in whittier a few weeks ago, it is really nice scenery this time of the year. That was my first time in the salt and deep water so it was a fun experience and alot different coming from inland rivers.

The Chena stays open year round in down town Fairbanks. Bring it up I will video.

been told that a good snow machine with paddle tread is as good as a boat when you run into open water lead on the frozen rivers, just punch the throttle ... I start thinking about liquid water activities late April to mid march .... Alaska winters are tough!

Water skipping sleds is *almost* as much fun as crashing jet boats!
