Ran across this video the other day.... the jump requires a climb and incorporated spine walk that increases your heart rate just to watch on video.  Very cool location.

Well we decided we need to do a little more local exploring for my birthday.  As a result we headed a few miles north and discovered some more nice xc ski trails buried in snow like the rest of the state.  There is nothing like post holing to wear the dog out and nothing like cold fresh air and a ski to put the soul at peace.

As many of you know my parents have been working on plans to knock down our old cabin on Cd'A lake and put up a replacement for future retirement use.  Things finally moved beyond the planning phase this past fall and with the mild winter things are coming along well.  As you can see from the pictures the old one is coming down quickly and lots of dirt work is being done in preparation for the new garage and driveway.  Cheers to many more relaxing nights listening to the waves lap the shore.
