Fun Weekend
/This past weekend was the 7th Annual Mush for a Cure, a fundraiser for breast cancer research. For the second year in a row, Greg and I volunteered as kitchen crew at the pasta dinner on Friday evening. I've posted photos of all the pink goodness here for you to see. This event is always scheduled for the second weekend of March, and it is a really fun time to be on the Gunflint Trail. I also have some photos and video of the mushers taking off on Saturday morning, and I will process that and get it posted here soon.
On a different note, the skiing is fabulous right now! We have approximately 26-28 inches of snow in the woods, and the trails are getting groomed even as we speak. I'm headed out to see how the conditions are. Temperatures are predicted to stay in the twenties this week, so that should mean that skiing will be good at least through next weekend. Coincidentally, we have several openings in our cabins, and the rates are down to our value season. Good reasons to come up to the northwoods for one last hurrah in the snow!
