Came across this one in upper Red Pine. Went maybe half the way across the lake maybe a little less. Looks like it occurred sometime during the storm. It failed on the ground in most places. It spanned north through east.The lake got broken up and you could make out some ice chunks.
From another observation:
I observed this from the other side of the lake, was alone and did not get close enough to make reliable observations. Everything noted within characteristics is an estimate. Bottom line, this was a pretty big event that looks to have happened no farther back than one, maybe two days. I'm guessing the slab was 3-4 feet at deepest. It resulted in a large, chunky debris pile down on the lake.
