A muskrat likes to swim in the open water after the long winter (just after the lake ice-out). ”Ice-out” What the heck is an “Ice-out?” This pic was shot on 060408 at Lake Phalen, Maplewood, MN. For Tanners Lake, Oakdale, MN, we believe ice-out happened either late April 6^th or early April 7^th, 2006. For info on an ice-out, check More Stories (2 sec) | Japanese (4 sec)
