Haliburton Highlands Weekend & Long Term Weather February 4 – Feb. 9 2012

 

This week’s Haliburton Highland’s weather remains slightly warmer than normal with no snow at all before Thursday, February 9. The week’s temperatures will see-saw somewhat with variable clouds, cloudy periods, and cloudiness with sunny breaks all on the menu through Thursday.

Nighttime temperatures will be cold and well below freezing.

Minden CAR RACES ON ICE!!! this weekend!

Hey, don’t miss the Car Races on Ice at the Minden fairgrounds on February 4th and 5th where you can have a blast and support your community with proceeds going to stock up the local Food Bank. This is exactly where I’d be if I were to be in the Highlands this weekend. One day, once my cottage is outfitted, for it I will hit up this event!

Haliburton Highlands Long Term Weather - January 19, 2012

I just took a peek at the extended forecast and as previously reported, it looks like the winter of 2011-12 is going to be remembered for it’s above-seasonal temperatures mixed with about average precipitation. The worst part I think most folks would agree, is the melting of the snow on days like predicted on this coming Monday with a high of 36F degrees. When Monday’s nighttime temperatures roll around it will get icy so many will wake up to icy conditions on Tuesday morning. After Monday’s mixed precipitation, Tuesday’s snow won’t have a chance to melt with a 30-degree F day and scattered flurries. And so it goes. Happy trails!

No matter the time of year there is always something to enjoy doing in the Haliburton Highlands but you knew that, right?

With a cool $200 prize for the first place male and female in the open category, Sir Sam’s Ski & Bike is hosting the first bordercross race of the season. Scroll down and click the 2nd image two times to enlarge to full size and read all about it!

If you are more the indoor, stay-warm type like me you may well enjoy the spirits and good company found at The Wild Moose Pub‘s Single Malt Social. Described as a ‘scotch nosing and dinner experience’ you will experience too, a different 1 oz. single malt whisky explained with each course. I hope they do something similar over the summer while I’m there as it sounds like a great evening! (Scroll above and click the image two times to enlarge to full size and read all about it!)

Haliburton Highlands: What’s Happening This Week! July 13 – 20, 2011 #haliburtonhighlands #entertainment

Hey Everyone!

Long time between posts, I know. Hopefully, the jam-packed menu of Haliburton Highlands good times coming up in the next couple of weeks will make up for it.
I’m going to highlight a few favourites, then follow with all the information you need on the rest of the activities (and there are many!!)

Minden Hills Bluegrass Festival

Want to hear some of the finest bluegrass music anywhere? This may sound a bit naive but I’m not sure I’ve ever heard Canadian Bluegrass music–so if it were possible for me to warp speed myself out of the American Midwest to Minden Hills, Ontario I’d see you there. This event, which takes place over two days, July 16-17 is a must see.

Living History Days - Day with a Black Smith

Living History Days! Again, this sounds fascinating because I’ve not ever encountered a ‘black smith’ shop. And costumed characters seal the deal for me!

9th Annual Stanhope Heritage Day

In it’s 9th year, Stanhope Heritage Day is teeming with some of my favourite activities like a BBQ lunch and the Stanhope Museum‘s famous ‘Citron Marmalade.’ But there’s much more than food being offered. there is music all day and uniquely skilled local residents demonstrating and in some cases inviting you to try rush weaving, tatting, carving, bookbinding, tinsmithing and much more!

Where Are the Whip-poor-Wills?

On a more informative and serious note is this informative presentation about the decline of the Whip-poor-will population by a staggering 50% in the last several decades. When an iconic species such as this is disappearing at this rate it is time to get informed and hopefully, join together to discuss possible solutions.

Highlands Summer Festival Presents - 'Looking'

I’m just realizing that there are over 20 separate events, some taking place over days or months to browse through. I’m ‘thumbnailing’ them all here–just  click to enlarge them and read all about them. I’m ever-impressed by the creativity, strong love and commitment to community and commitment to the arts, be they culinary, artsy-crafty, or fine arts like the play ‘Looking,’ by Norm Foster (see above).

I strongly encourage you to indulge yourself. There is so much to relish in the Haliburton Highlands!
