The calendar says May 1st, but judging by all the ice still on the lake, it looks more like April 1st.

A new website is tracking ice conditions on Lake of the Woods.

Tim Armstrong is a pilot with Walsten Air and says he's been updating the situation through aerial photographs.

Armstrong says his website, icepatrol.ca has been getting a lot of traffic with an average of about a thousand hits a day.
