And heretofore Shawn replied:
Works for me!  My brother and I are planning a Y2K XC ski trip to one of
his favorite lakes.  Since it will be very hard for another 5 months, my
paddling gear is all lonely for want of use....  Hmm...maybe we could
chop a hole in the ice and have our own Polar Bear Club, Finnish style!  

Ari--any pointers?  BTW, how short are the days up there now?
