I have climbed all around there; Northstar many times.... lived in C Springs until Jul of this year. The new snow fortells what is to come....in VA now enjoying a bit longer summer. Bob

How true.... Here's pics from last week at my house ( 9,000ft) on the last day of Summer 09. Should be a great year of skiing. .... Tom

Thanks, a friend sent me some pics of Pikes peak with about 10" on it. That is the only thing I grew a bit tired of over the years. I did not mind snow blowing but in May and Sep it got a tad old. I am sure it is 70 degrees and sunny there today. Enjoy Bob

The only problem with early and late snowfall is that it messes with my motorcycle riding . Last winter, I was able to motorcycle 60 days
between Novemeber and April. This year may be a different story. And yes, it's going to be near 70 today, and last weeks snow is long gone.

I lived in the Denver area for many years, and snow there was more of an annoyance than anything else. Living in the mountains
turns it into a winter wonderland with snowshoeing and skiing so close by..... Not to mention the great twisty mountain roads
for the cars and the bikes.

Living in the mountains isn't for everyone.... and I'm glad ( 6 pics)
