Ski-Eco-Tour - Jan 26
The Ski-Eco-Tour enjoyed -11 to -14 C temperatures, which was great skiing weather given the temperatures we've had the past two weeks. Some eco-stations generated more discussion than others, included the "math" questions! The lunch of stew and bannock received rave reviews from many participants.
Thanks to Ron Horn and FAE for supplying the prizes.
