Hard to even consider setting a date until the camps open up, they don't even answer the phones until they are putting out the shacks. A lot of them also won't take reservation more than 2 weeks in advance.....with the weather now, it could be late this season.
a few years ago I had reserved a shack in late January....it got canceled because of no ice.
I'm trying to schedule an outing for our club.....I basically have to pick a date and hope I can get shacks reserved in time...and there is ice
