Feb 24 - 26 Annual Owners Meeting
We managed to pick the best weekend of the winter for the owners meeting.
Got about 10cm of wet snow on Friday, just enough to make the trail slippery enough for Shawn to get stuck. It only took 4 strong backs and an ATV with a winch to get me out (sure wish I had put on those snow tires). Murray and Shawn went for a quick ski before dark with only 2 stream crossings - Note: When trying to cross a stream with skis on in the dark do not try to do the standing long jump.
Sat was -5 for great ski conditions. Shawn, Murray and Rob skied over to the Black River & met up with Doug and Barry for lunch. Now it was Barry's turn to get stuck. Doug completed his monthly stress test on his heart getting him out. The skiers negotiated an awesome trail along the Black back to the cabin (see photo above). Doug provided a great steak dinner and the owners meeting went well into the next day (as usual) - I hope Barry took good notes because we must have talked about a lot of important stuff. It was a cold clear night that the wolves were enjoying as well (made Doug a little nervous cooking the steaks outside). There were several nominees for the Technical Innovation - Total Solution award, but Doug was the clear winner for his hydro electric power plant he designed, built, installed and commissioned (see photo below).
Another gorgeous day on Sunday - I'm not sure what happened because I packed up and left.
