Sunday 6 pm

I am so impressed by the dedication of our staff, both grooming and working the ski shop, shoveling and plowing etc…and our skiers. They are so loyal and dedicated to our ABR FAMILY.

We groomed up 78 km of trails today at -18 F, set tracks on 61 km. Skiers were pleased. I am so impressed with the turn out of skiers on a cold day, the wooded trails were used mostly and the trailside warming cabins were heated by skiers to help extend the distance they could venture out to.

Monday we plan to touch up skate lanes, Re track the Highlands, re-track Puumala…maybe more.

this is why we do what we do..this group of 4 families (many missing from photo) have been coming for 21 years on MLK Weekend, the children were 3-5 years old when they came here in 2004.
