Winter Rendezvous 2011

The month of January concluded on a high note this past weekend, as Deep Portage hosted its annual Winter Rendezvous. Over 150 people showed up for the event, which has been conducted every January for over 30 years. Below are photos from this year's version. The temps were kind to us this time around, with highs nearing 20 degrees and ample sunshine. January as a whole has been fairly chilly, getting as low -35 on the morning of the 21st. We have nearly 2 feet of snow on the ground, and the ski trails are in perfect condition. We look forward to seeing you out on the trials.
