special announcement |
current conditions Snow cover in the Abajo Mountains is still quite thin and there isn't enough snow to recreate on beyond the road. There is only a few inches of snow on the ground at the trailheads and in the lower elevations.
Forest Service volunteer Chris Jacobson tops out at North Creek Pass. Pretty low snow up there.
On the backside near Robinson Pasture. Snow here was even thin on the road so we turned around. Wind, temperature and humidity on Abajo Peak. Snow totals at Camp Jackson. |
