Week of 2/10

Let it Snow! 4 inches of fresh powder fell Wednesday night, and the ski trails are looking great! This past week started off with a DNR Ecological Services Conference on Monday and Tuesday. By Tuesday afternoon the adults had left and 110 wonderful young people arrived from Carlos-Garfield-Miltona (plus their wonderful teachers and chaperones of course). Garfield teacher Jan Nelson always puts a special stamp on the visit with his Friday morning awards ceremony (see photo). This weekend we have a Family Weekend group plus the annual Cass Lake Family Day on Saturday.

Phenology this week:

-we hit -20 three times this week!
-Red Crossbills have been spotted in the main building area
-4 inches of snow on Wednesday night
-Wolf tracks seen near the bog

Don't let the ski season pass you by without visiting the DP trails! Cheers until next week.
