OK.
Other Activities
- Geocaching (there's 2 new ones at SWC )
- Placement of net new cache @ cookhouse ?
- Hiking or Snowshoeing (if you have ´em)
- ... or just enjoy the fire
For more info on the Strathcona Wilderness Centre, see
here. There is a link to a map on the right hand side. If we
get snowed out, we will be restricted to the red trails. There
would have to be more than just a thin snow before they start to
pack down and prepare for ski trails so I believe we have some
leeway. I´ll confirm with SWC management that morning.
Suggestions are welcome, I don´t plan events for a living...
