• Seasonal Patterns

  In an average year July sits at 19°C and January at -12°C. Winter shuts things down for a spell, then spring reopens them fast. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough late April. The lid tends to go about late April and return around early December. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. Expect Lower Jack Lake to follow that timing.
