Writers planning return trip
Three national magazine writers were so enamored with the Seeley Swan that they are planning a reunion to return sometime this summer.
Cindy Sanguins, who played host to the writers along with her husband, Ron, for the Seeley Lake Driftriders said the writers "loved the winter and now want to come back and see the area in the July summertime."
The writers will be publishing stories this fall about Seeley Swan's snowmobiling recreation attractions. They arrived here Friday evening and were hosted to a steak barbeque by the Driftriders at the Homestead Cabin.
Bob Olsen of Snowmobile West, Bob Livingston of Trailer Life and Joel Mellenthin of Minnesota Snowmobile magazines were brought to the area by Lynn March of the State Commerce Department in a tourism promotion effort.
On Saturday the group toured on snowmobiles the scenic trails to Rice Ridge and Morrell Falls. Sunday they were led by Mark Hurley and Mike Thompson of the Department of State Lands onto the Clearwater Game Range where they saw part of the hundreds of elk that winter there.
