Fill 'er Up
The lake is stiff... as Thumper told Bambi... The Algonquin Snowmobile Club, after heroic efforts to get all the windfall trees cleared off, has now opened the snowmobile trails. They are groomed, and look awesome.
This very cold snap of weather has firmed up the ponds and swamps, and is locking in the lake. (I was shoveling the skating rink today, when the whole bay 'snapped' This happens when the ice is 'making', as it pushes against the shores, and then a pressure crack snaps through the ice to releive the pressure. No you don't fall in when that happens... but you do, as I did, tend to jump into the air)
The sleds are back -- and our neighbouring resort, DEERHURST, is offering a special deal for all the sled-heads out there. If you drop into Deerhurst along the snowmobile trail, and fill up your snowmobile with 10 litres of gas or more, you can join them in Pavilion PUB for a FREE BOWL OF HOT CHILI.
It's a deal! Deerhurst is a 5 Star resort, and host to the 2010 G8 Summit. Here your chance to drop by and have a look, with a free lunch in the bargain!
And keep it straight -- you BUY gas, and GET chili... not the other way around!
Safe trails!
