Ice Fishing Trip!
Friday 2/10--Sun 2/12
 Come enjoy an ice fishing trip in the mountains!
In ice fishing you drill holes through the ice and fish in the holes
using special short rods and reels which are designed for ice
fishing. We will be fishing for Rainbow and Brown Trout.
We will be staying in a heated cabin on the edge of the lake. The
cabin has bunk beds with mattresses, but you will
need to supply
your own sleeping bag or blankets. There is no plumbing in the
cabin, the restrooms are in separate unheated building.
