The airport is an ice runway during the winter and a seaplane base in the summer. Flight with one of my friends for breakfast and he knew a couple that met us there.

The recommended ice grippers for your shoes are a must. Breakfast tehn stopped by Facet Jewelers, signed the flight guest book, pick up a sertificate for landing @ B18, very friendly people.

Calm winds landing and the ice was in great shape. I had a nice tail wind for the return, ground speed 153 kts in my RV12.
