I'll be up there on Saturday I think. Revisiting the summer classics. Skied dead dog today. Pretty nice snow... was fun slarving down the runnels like spines, and there was a nice long mostly smooth patch too to the right of the huge groove. Summitted around 9, clouds blocked the sun most of the time.Quote:

skied Tuning Fork this morning. Skier's left side was much nicer at 8:15 than the right due to shading (apparently it actually froze last night). It's definitely getting a lot shorter, but still plenty of good snow to ski.
Nice
Yeah, still about 2000' of quality corn. Skiing great!Quote:

Amazing mountain weather this weekend for camping. Geez, we live in a gorgeous state.
For sure. Had a great visit to the county recently. The old timers dragged me around. Hiking & skiing, skiing & boating, boating & fishing.Quote:

June is a damn fine time in Colorado.

The last few nights have been a little chilly up here. Mid 40's maybe? Haven't had to close the windows, but I was watching a movie wearing a sweatshirt the other night. It's been a brutal summer... Got to be at least eight, maybe even nine days in the high 70's. Hit 82 one afternoon. I can count the 80 degree days since we moved in on one hand. Rain this afternoon - bring on the monsoon!
^^^ nice, bring on the moisture. Nice little storm ran through and down right gorgeous right now. Great Sumer evening on the front range
It's awesome weather. I just wish my girlfriend would be willing to live up here.Quote:

^^^^^ share the pics
A few pics - there were climbers on the Ellingwood Arête (2,000' center line of Needle) that were amazing to watch:
