There's simply no excuse for boredom in the Flin Flon-Creighton area this winter season. Here are a few suggestions to keep you busy Ð and healthy.... Take A Hike Often overlooked in this age of snowmobiles is a simple walk through the scenic winter wilderness. Maybe pack along a lunch (thermos of soup recommended), bring the kids along and make a day of it. Just make sure you're prepared if the weather suddenly turns cold. Eskimo Transport Snowshoeing is another great way to enjoy the winter. This traditional form of winter transportation is suitable for all ages, and there's nothing quite like the feeling of strolling atop a snow bank without having your feet fall through. Again, why not make a day of it? Wax 'Em Up Skiing lets you glide along Mother Nature's white blanket with ease. Flin Flon is fortunate to have an enthusiastic ski club along with a complete trail network ready for use. Besides being exhilarating, skiing Ð whether downhill or cross-country Ð provides a great workout Ð and a good excuse to get off the couch. Strap 'Em On And who could forget skating? Flin Flon and area has a large rink-to-resident ratio. So whether you're playing hockey or just gliding around a frozen surface for the fun of it, why not lace 'em up?
