Hapless young moose was apparently stuck in the Big Lake-Mud Lake channel this morning. I called Dale Haggard and he called Fish and Game. JR later reported that they tried a rescue, but the moose had a broken leg and had not broken through the ice. Sad story, but we tried. Still, - ... Do not Drive Through The Channels - the water flows there so the ice is thin!
