Despite the lack of snow, winter program 2012 got off to a fine start.  The downhill skiers had a great day on the mountain.  The Nordic skiers could go because of the lack of snow, so they joined the Winter Fun group for a dog sledding adventure.  The dog sledders need to use their summer lacks because of the lack of snow.  Enjoy the pictures.
