Does anyone know if green lake still has thick enough ice to kite on it? It's been a bit milder in whistler recently. I'm hoping to try it out in Sunday.

If you look at the mean temp and see it's below zero then things will probably stay frozen or freeze more:

As you can see it's been well below 0 in Whistler for the past long while, only in the past couple days are we approaching warmer temps. Once the temps warm up it takes quite a while before the ice melts, just as it takes weeks below zero for the ice to freeze.
