As you can tell by looking through this site, we are blessed with beautiful scenery. We have plenty of wildlife. The fishing and hunting are excellent, and there are places to go camping or rent a camp while you're here. If you like canoeing or kayaking you'll feel right at home because there's water everywhere!
We have some great opportunities for winter outdoor fun, too. Snowmobiling, downhill and cross country skiing, ice fishing - there's no reason to stay cooped up inside all winter long!
