And so it came to be. We fulfilled Mr M's dream of hut-to-hut skiing en famille. 4 1/2 days = 50 miles of trails. Up and down and across, icy, snowy, sunny and warm, you name it.
The
Maine Huts & Trails set up was fantastic. The food & eco-lodges & crew were great. we loved the book and games - and beer - selection each evening. Here are some preliminary snaps. No doubt, the main photographer will share more.

So glad we did it!

| They were wonderful company for each other. They sang 100 bottles of beer - all the way through... They did multiple choice quizs about science, books, and family history. Hilarious! |
