The Saskatoon Fire Department has tested the ice on City ponds and confirms that the ice thickness on each of them is more than 40cm (16 inches).

Starting in December, the Saskatoon Fire Department tests the ice once a week using standard ice augers and appropriate safety precautions.

The ponds that have been tested and confirmed to have an ice thickness of more than 40cm are Dundonald, RCAF, “Rat Hole”, Lakeview, the pond at Circle Drive and Clarence Ave., Stonebridge, Trounce, Briarwood, John Avant and Erindale.

The City of Saskatoon believes that an ice thickness of 40cm provides a reasonable level of security to residents wishing to use the ponds for recreational activities.
