About Me:: ....errr, not much to say about me....

I enjoy boxing, muay thai, and wrestling (very very amatuer). I have done some amatuer mixed martial bouts and am in the ranks.

Other than that, hiking only to get to the camping, climbing, or repelling spots. Kayaking, movies, music, board games, 4x4s, ATVs, snowmachines, dirt biking, etc.

I'm asking the owner some similar questions, but as an employee, I'm sure your views are a little different!..sorry for all the questions, but here goes!

First, did you have a car to get around? If not, how was the transportation...how did you get around, did you get to many places? The owner said that a lot of people go to a car auction and buy a car for the season up there. Any suggestions?

How about the size of the cabins, with 4 people in them? I'm bringing a day pack, backpack, and a suitcase...how is storage/space?

What about food? I know there are some places in Cooper Landing/Moose Pass but did you just eat at the lodge?

What is there to do around the lodge on days off? I know the lake is right there, but does the property have anything like a kayak or canoe?

Is it easy to get away on days off or did you find yourself stuck around the lodge?

What was the general age of the employees at the lodge? Were they primarily from the US or was there a lot of cultural diversity?

If you think of anything you could share about your experiences there, it would be great! Any information is good information! Thanks John and I hope you have a great summer!

Any ideas on how I can still effectively practice with a bad shoulder? It was broken a long time ago and never got fixed, but I miss Muay Thai. Thanx for any suggestions...
