Well we have another dusting of snow about the place this morning and they are saying we may get 2-4 cm tonight. I am just getting ready to take Mollie out for what I think will be a rather blustery, cold walk. All the BBQ's are away, all the cottages vacumed and tidied up and I have been busy winterising our boat. Next on the list is finishing off some raking and preparing the new dock for the winter.
We are off tonight to see the latest Warrem Miller ski film at the Algonquin Theater, getting ourselves fired up for winter.
Hidden Valley is getting geared up for another season of great down hill skiiing & boarding. Remember they are only 25 minutes away from us. Hidden Valley has upgraded the air side of the snowmaking system to ensure snow can be made at warmer temperatures under the Blue Quad. Combining this with the addition of 20 new snow guns for the property will allow the snow making team to start up sooner and put down greater amounts of snow at a faster rate. Also new for the 2010 / 2011 season, they have purchased a Piston Bully Park 400 edge.This Park Cat will greatly improve their abilty to build proper transitions and landing zones in the Terrain Park. If you would like more info about skiing at the Valley take a look at their website,

Till next time
