I concur with this idea ^

Saw a bit of a game up there last year (was up there that weekend by chance ) and think 48 hours is fine up there. Yes the whalers harpooned the competition! Be sure to bring lots of warm gear though...and some cash for the Booster Club. Oddly enough they seem to have a strong Filipino theme with the food there ^
