Coincidentally,  we are headed into the Henry's this weekend.
Planning on camping at the Lonesome Beaver Campground.  Hope I don't
need a syncro to get up there as I will be the only one w/ 2wd?  Ken's
trip covered some of the most beautiful, rugged & desolate country you
can imagine.

Thanks for the trip report.

Mr. BZ-looking forward to the Lonesome Beaver
