Spring has just about sprung, and it feels great!  We are looking forward to seeing everybody soon and can't wait for the weekend breakfast cafe at the Rec-Hall!

We want to let everyone know that with the warm weather we have had to close off the roads in the seasonal section due to mud.  Feel free to still walk in from the snow fences.  Please check here or call the office to find out if the roads are open before you come up or set appointments with service companies.  If the roads are still closed the TV and heat companies will not be able to get in!  Thanks!

Fire Danger Level: The campfires are no longer allowed up back, as we need to have water available.
Thanks!

*Fishing Report--
  The river and lake are melting fast. All of the bobhouses are off the lake and mush is starting to set in fast. Spring is on the way for sure!  Check out this "Fishing Forecast" link, it says where to find the fish you are after!

*Lake Report
The lake level is above normal by 9.24" as of 2/27 and the lake temperature was reported to be 37°F

*Gardening Report--
Spring is just around the corner!  It is a great time to start planning your gardens and flowerpots, it will be here before you know it. Please feel free to ask for advice if you want to start to plan a project for the Spring! 

*Wildlife--
    A walk to the river is almost SURE to be rewarded with a lot of ducks being seen.  There has also been 2 Bald Eagles down there, but I didn't have my camera with me!! Won't make that mistake again!!! Keep your eyes peeled and your cameras at ready, as I would love pictures of wildlife to add to the page!
