You would be surprised! We have had some pretty snowy winters in Maryland. It would make for an interesting toboggan ride.JPG wrote: Snow up thar not deep enough to paddle!

Be careful Al. Those runs and sags look even worse when they go up! :-)
You should be proud. You took a whack at something that challenged you and you've done a great job.
Congrats!

Thanks, Paul! It has indeed been a challenge, a learning experience and mostly a lot of fun! Except for the sanding. Which there has been a lot of. Sometimes I think it would have been quicker to start with a solid log and just sand it hollow.
