Up North in NH still thick ice but not great surface. We got a tip From local Nordic Ski/Kite Wing shop and went to that area.
Snowmobiles on wet warm surface make a mess when things refreeze. . This was one of least tracked water bodies.
We made the best of it and had some fun. Don did skiis and then skates .I did just skates.

You are a brave man kiting with skates this late in the season...I'll stick with the skis...skimtwashington - 3-19-2019 at 03:43 PM
If the snowmobiles stayed off, there could be some great surfaces for skates...or skis.
FYI Randy...
Kite used by Don is a commercially made one. Flown almost off bridal w/ just 5 ft of fly line. I had longer 20 ft. fly line. I was using a custom
made(colors choice, size) China import.
The Short lines allows close proximity to windblown snow on edges, and other advantages.
I like you NPW kite pattern!
