Head to McCall for the winter carnival

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


All the fun in McCall ain't over yet - there's still a lot planned for this weekend, with the emphasis on outdoor recreation.

Strap on a pair of snowshoes and play a round of golf at McCall Golf Course starting Thursday. On Friday, watch the torchlight parade and have dinner at Little Ski Hill.

Saturday's events include a snowmobile fun run, kids' snowman building contest and horse-drawn sleigh rides.

If you prefer your sports indoors, get into the light-hearted spirit of the carnival at Thursday's annual contest to honor the best beard, hairiest legs and sexiest legs in town.

Or raise funds for wildlife rehabilitation Friday at the Wine Tasting Festival and Snowdon Art Auction .

The conclusion of this week's Idaho State Snow Sculpting Championships means there are even more great snowy masterpieces to see.
