Sleigh ride

 This afternoon we were to Potts for a sleigh ride, there was 10 in our group but altogether I think there was a total of 20.  It was sunny with a light wind but a cool -10.

The team of horses had no problem hauling the sleigh, in fact the horses trotted up the grades.
There was two teams working today, one leaving the cabin every 30 minutes.
 
Almost everyone was bundled up well with toques and scarfs. The blue in the top background is ice on the Northumberland strait.
