Sunday. we ran a hydro cable across the beaver dam from the solar panels to the trailer. Once hooked up this will keep the trailer batteries charged.
The Cabin was built by five brothers with the help of some very talented friends on 100 acres of the finest beaver habitat, moose pasture and Canadian Shield that one could hope for. This blog invites comments from those who have an interest in the cabin.
Cabin - March 17th 2017
A great weekend. Spring seemed to be coming even though we still had 12 in of ice on the lake. Spent Saturday hauling standing dead trees off the slough to dry land with the Yamaha sled and Barry's ATV. The ice was so slick that once you got going it was hard to stop.
Cabin Trip March 5th
Another cabin trip and another moose encounter. Just sitting in the cabin after lunch when I see a female moose walking up to the fire pit beside the cabin. She stopped and looked in the window but because we had a dog, soon cantered down the back trail. Very weird, after years with only one or two encounters we have been up close with moose 3 times this winter.
Murray and Jamie skied in and out! Not easy because an atv had left deep ruts up and down the road during the thaw a week ago and now everything was froze hard as concrete.
Rob got picked up on the Uber Yamaha and arrived Saturday.
Of course, it was bound to happen. Which was faster? The Polaris or Yamaha? They are both very fast on the lake, the Yamaha seemed to have an edge but we ran out of lake before seeing top end.
They hit close to 120km before having to get on the brakes.The lake is a way shorter than we thought. That is scary fast !
The lake still had 8 to 10 inches of ice. We know because we had to chainsaw holes in the ice to plant a couple of new posts for the dock.
Barry and I built the new bookcase on Saturday. Used the trim saw for the finer work...Ha ha.
Great weather! -18 at night.
