More Winter Fun

Yes, it's still winter in Unalakleet, Alaska.  Snow isn't melting, but we're enjoying the sunny days.  


We spent a weekend camping with some friends at  a cabin that's along the Iditarod trail, about 35 miles outside of town.

Damon and Ryan gathered firewood


We all spent time cutting it.


The cozy cabin





A beautiful sunset ski


Back country skiing




The 4th, 5th, and 6th grade classes spent a day of celebration at Ayuu's Hill.  A spot about 8 miles up river.  

Sledding


Picnicking


Ice fishing





Towing



Darroll and Savanah came over Easter, we had a great visit.




They brought the Easter ham along with other exciting groceries.






Damon and I participated in the community ski picnic.  We skied a few miles outside of town, grilled hot dogs, drank hot chocolate, and then skied home.
