Ramsey County has closed all vehicle access to Bald Eagle Lake in White Bear Township until further notice.

The sheriff’s office said that thin ice and open water caused two incidents this week where vehicles broke through the ice.  The county is also asking that people stay off the lake altogether since it’s not quite safe.

Ramsey County is offering a new way to promote active lifestyles for residents.

The county has launched a web mapping portal that shows all of the places that Ramsey County residents and visitors can be active in the county. Users can search for information about parks, lakes, trails, and recreational activities.
