Description
I wasn't overly happy with the first map as it did not fully suit my needs as a ranch. This second one is much, much nicer in my opinion and it has everything I want on the map.

Ice Mist Ranch; was found on August 12, 2012 -- it is located in a ficitional place in the state of Michigan. It's connected to a National Park in the Upper Penisula, the Park and Ranch were owned by Peter Borakoff a Conservationist who purchased the vast amount of land in order to upset a logging company. His ideal was that if all the lands were depleted of our natural lumber how did we intend to survive. He was also a huge supporter of wildlife and perserving our Natural History. In his estate, he left it to his heir, his son Paul Borakoff, who eventually left it to his Granddaughter, Sophie Borakoff, who later only kept what acreage known as the 'ranch' as her homestead. However, the Park may be National and ran by the state of Michigan it is infact still owned by the family. It is also home to a wide variety of natural wildlife and indigenous plants of Michigan. It has a campground, a number of trails within it that amount to almost 400 miles of trails for those whom may be interested in many avenues of such.

As for the Ranch itself, it's main focus is raising/breeding/showing Samoyeds with the potential of adding in another breed at some given time. It also houses, currently a flock of Hampshire Sheep and a wide array of Poultry -- for which to train the dogs in Herding endeavours.

As far as the dogs are concerned, there is no single discipline we fully specialize in -- our breed is versatile and therefore should be able to do just about anything very well.

Map Key
1. House: Is built of a woodsy attire of cobblestone and wood furnishings on the outside.
1A. Garage: 4 Car Garage that houses the family vehicles which include; a Chevy Silverado Pick-Up in Dark Blue, a GMC Sierra Pick-Up in Dark Blue, a Express GMC Van in Dark Blue & White Decal (for dog shows) and a Buick Lacrosse in White.
1B. Backyard: The area in which the family, dogs and company usually mingle during the spring, summer and fall.
2. The Kennel & Runs: A kennel with twenty two kennel runs, a grooming room, and office. Whelping is always done in the house and dogs are not always kept in the kennel, Samoyeds need their people.
3. Barn 1 Unused: Currently not being used, in otherwords I'm still preparing for this part!
4. Barn 2: Currently home to the sheep and poultry.
5. Show Building: For those wonderful winter shows to keep everyone nice and toasty while showing their dogs!
6. Large Show Outdoor Arena: Will be used for a variety of events and training.
7. Large Grassy Area: Also to be used for events held at IMR.
8. Small Grassy Area: Another place for training and events to be held.
