More than twenty backcountry skiers completed a 9 mile tour from the Buck Prairie Sno-Park across Henry Mountain to Campers Cove. Weather conditions were mixed with snowfall, clouds and some sunshine on the plateau. Snow conditions were excellent for the first 4/5 of the tour, but the last couple of miles lacked a firm base making for a challenging end to the tour. The enjoyment quotient was high with expressions of wonder at the higher elevations and with plenty of laughter at the end. Socializing at the Campers Cove Restaurant continued while the shuttle ran to bring back the vehicles.
