ALBION – Noah Harrison, 14, of Albion heads down the sledding hill at Bullard Park this afternoon.
This was the first big snowfall of winter for people to go sledding and get on their snowmobiles.
The sledders braved the hill despite strong winds and temperatures in the low 20s.
“It’s cold but it’s good,” Noah said about the sledding conditions.
