The high for today was forecast to be in the mid forties with the wind under 10 mph, so, of course, I aimed to get out on the water. The La Framboise Island causeway boat ramp was still covered in snow and there was a large chunk of ice extending from Discovery Island in front of the ramp. So, I headed to the Fort Pierre boat ramp. There were a few chunks of ice at the ramp, but nothing that couldn't be avoided. I actually helped a fisherman move some larger chunks, so that he could launch his boat.
I paddled 3.25 miles upstream before turning around and returning back downstream (6.5 total miles). I paddled my Epic V8 Pro surfski with my Epic mid wing. I managed a couple of decent pics of the columns / bents for the new Pierre-Fort Pierre bridge.
