The area also offers snowboarding and tubing. If you want a relaxing day, grab a cup of hot chocolate and head to the large fireplace offered in many of the hotels. For a quick day trip, you could travel to the big apple in about 1 1/2 hours.

It depends on when you go really. There are festivals and shows throughout the year. There is a big fire work festival every summer for the 4th of July. Other events are food themed like cook offs, and food festivals celebrating certain food themes. The area is also known for having a timber competition featuring lumberjacks.
