Strawberry was capped when I was up there on Dec 26th. I did not check the ice thickness, but have heard that the bay next to the highway at Soldier Creek was 8 to 10 inches thick.
I got an update from Strawberry lodge, they said there is 3-4 inches at the marina and people are fishing it, but it is still considered "unsafe" as of yesterday.
12/29 Current Creek is unreachable, the road hasn't been plowed past the Buckhorn. We made it just past there and found a Jeep Cherokee that had just slid off the road on that first big climb. Took some doing but I got them pulled out, road is dicey to say the least.
Returned to the Berry, Ice is 6-8", fishing was SLOOOOWWWW until about 1:30 then it was hot till 3pm.
