February Warms your Face

The lake is brilliant with the sun reflecting off the ice and snow crystals. Days are already longer and skiing in the Forest we can feel the warmth of the sun on our faces. Our guests arriving today will be heading to Hidden Valley or Algonquin Park for perfect winter skiing conditions. Some guests are looking forward to dog sledding, a challenging sport that is gaining fans. What fun when these beautiful animals take off and become quiet as they fly along curving paths through woods and along the shores of isolated lakes and meadows.
