It has been smooth sailing for the Washington Island Ferry this winter, but this week will cause your commutes to be challenged in the coming weeks.

Friday’s blizzard warning forced the Washington Island Ferry to cancel its final day trip on Friday, and Saturday’s schedule is also in the air because of the weather. The frigid temperatures that start on Sunday will also lead to the creation of ice across Death’s Door. Washington Island Ferry President Hoyt Purinton says it is nothing new to them, but he has enjoyed the lack of drama with its trips so far this winter.

Purinton reminds ferry users to monitor its schedule to ensure it is running and make vehicle reservations ahead of schedule. Vehicle reservations are required until March 14th.
