Get active!!

Hello everyone,

we have been without any considerable snowfall here in Maine for awhileee now so it limits what fun things we can do outside in the winter time but I have an idea for you!
If you like to get bundled up and be active outside, but cant go cross country skiing, or snowshoeing, or snowmobiling, but want to be active try ropes course climbing and zip lining!

 This picture (above) is from the bottom of the high tower where the zips are received, this is the longest zip line in Maine which is 1000 feet long! It's an awesome ride day or night, zipping across the tubing park!

This is a picture of one of the ropes courses at Seacoast, our back course has 3 different levels going from green to black courses. You start around 10 feet off the ground and move up to being around 50 feet ground off the ground on the black course. I went up and played on this the other day and I love it just as much in the winter as I do in the summer or fall! It might be a little chilly but as you continue to excel through the course you will be taking off layers!

Many studies have been done on the benefits of ropes course climbing from therapeutic benefits for couples, or physical muscle strengthening. Climbing on these ropes courses are a great way to do team building because it as much mental as it is a physical experience making it very unique! Each element you cross is different, from swinging blocks, to bridges, to cable walks, that all challenge you differently!

If you are looking to maybe stay inside but still craving winter I highly recommend watching one of Warren Miller's films Off The Grid, he has made many over the years and I love every one of them! Every winter I go to Portland for the premiere of his new film at the State Theater. I highly recommend buying or renting any of his films and I think some of them are on Netflix!

Have a great day everyone!
