I'm looking forward to warmer weather, since my main outdoors interest is 
summer hiking and backpacking and camping.  However, in the mean time...

There was an interesting article in yesterday's Salt Lake Tribune about 
cross-country skiing and winter camping in the North Fork Canyon area, 
along the Mirror Lake highway above Kamas.  Is anyone familiar with this 
area?  One of the nice things mentioned in the newspaper article is that 
there are separated areas where snowmobilers go; so those who prefer 
quiet solitude will be undisturbed.

Any other good suggestions for winter hiking and/or camping activities?  
A nice snowshoe hike to a good camping area would be great too.

Are open campfires allowed this time of year?
