I can’t think of a better way to spend a morning than hiking, socializing, and admiring the scenery. Our tough, strong group laughed through the 70 km/hour winds along Prairie Mountain’s ridge and revelled in the fresh powder snow on the descent. We didn’t stop for lunch, but had lots of mini-breaks throughout the 3.5 hour trip and arrived back at the cars before 12:30. Thanks to participants Sonja, Pam, and Cristina for a great time, from coordinator Ingrid.
