We need to make an adjustment to our check in and check out times! During the Winter months we have a lot shorter times of daylight. In order to better serve you, we are changing those times. Check in after 3:00 PM, check out by 12:00 noon. Check in after 8:00 PM will require prior arrangements with our office.

How to say “thank you” to all of the folks who have volunteered countless hours this past year at ABC Mountain Retreat! My heart is full. Thanks to those of you that have come out from King’s Circle Assembly, Corvallis, OR Mike Ashabranner’s Church of Richland, WA, Bethel Baptist, Pasco, WA, and the men from the chapel at Mountain Home, ID–you are my heroes. Thanks to you we have lots of wood for winter, the roofs won’t blow off, and the water pipes are not leaking! And our deck on the back of the Pavilion is Beefy enough to withstand the snowiest Winter! The Chapman’s have been hard at work on our Outdoor Chapel soon to have its’ first Outdoor Wedding ever. They have replaced the wood on the benches, terraced the hillside, added a beautiful platform and bark dust covering the complete Chapel area. It is a wonderful addition to our camp! We are truly blessed to have the many workers of all ages spend countless hours making this camp the most beautiful that I have yet seen! I love you all, and am looking forward to your visit again soon! I pray that God will richly bless your lives as much as you have blessed mine. My heart to yours, Noreen Caldwell

We are proud to live in a country that has been blessed by God for over 200 years. Thank you to every veteran who sacrificed years of their lives to ensure that Americans would continue to live free. We cannot take these blessings for granted! We look to God to continue to grant us the same liberty in the years to come, and to guide and direct our paths and freedom for the future. God, Bless America!

We are having a really different winter in the Blue Mountains this year. Normally we would be navigating the camp on our snowmobiles, and zipped up inside our warmest jackets. We have had two really nice snowstorms that gave our Christmas season guests the opportunity to get out and enjoy a white Christmas. Eighteen inches of snow at the New Year gave way to bare ground in no time. Today we look out our windows and see an inch of new snow that fell last night. It’s not over yet! We still have another six weeks of winter that could bring the snow that our mountains and valleys need. Prayers and yes even those snow dances are appreciated! Thank you to all of you that have visited this past year. It has been a pleasure to serve you; we are looking forward to seeing you here again soon! My heart to yours,

Noreen Caldwell

One thing that I have been struck by in the ten years that I have been here is the versatility that we enjoy here at the camp. We meet folks that visit here every summer, and some who can’t wait for the snows of winter for their trip to ABC. It is definitely a place to enjoy all year round, as we get lots of snow in the winter, and balmy temperatures in the summer. This winter the weather has sailed between periods of rain during one week and feet of snow in the next. Underneath all of it is a layer of ice that was laid in during the sub-freezing temperatures that we had early on. When I was fretting that there was too much ice mixed in with the snow, kids were writing in our guest books about how well they could sled on it! Even in the summer time when the fire danger gets to be too high to allow for outdoor fires, our resilient guests have small fires in their cabin wood stoves that allow the kids to have their s’mores anyway. I really treasure the privilege of watching families and groups spending time together and enjoying each other’s company at every time of the year. Thank you, from my heart to yours–Noreen Caldwell

Dear ABC Followers,

Today is a quiet day. The weather is overcast and cool. Lots of snow up on top–and we have a couple of inches on the ground. We know you are getting ready for Christmas, as we are for your arrival. It looks like more snow in the forecast, so it should be a wintry holiday for all. In the middle of this time, we want to pause and say thank you to God for the greatest gift of all–a little baby born in a manger more than 2,000 years ago. God’s gift to us–His son named Jesus, sent to make a way to bridge the biggest gap of all, between ourselves and Him. So Merry Christmas to us all! I hope your holidays with family will reflect the wonder of Christmas and the joy of being with those you love the most.

Our hearts looking out for yours,

Noreen for ABC Mountain Retreat

I really enjoy going on walks here at the camp. I never know what curious animal friends I am going to encounter. Because I am never in a hurry to get somewhere on these hikes, I am inclined to make stops along the way to see what has changed or who might be out there. We do have friendly albeit somewhat timid deer here; and they are always peeking around the next tree or corner. They enjoy showing off their new fawns as much as we love encountering them! Sometime during the late fall; usually around the end of October, we start getting our snow. The deer stay here as long as they can, filling up on late berries and the lush grasses and plants that grow here. They know that when the snow gets too deep they have to move down to the lower terrains. During this migration we see many white tails who live higher up that are passing through. The next time you’re here, try taking a walk and just “mosey”. The deer do this as they wander from bush to flower–grazing for a few moments, picking up their heads and listening, taking a few more steps and grazing again. If they are startled their white tails will go up–we call them “flags”–and they run as fast as they can to escape the impending danger. Try moseying and see what you can see!
