Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Big Snow, maybe
I love a good springtime upslope! The models are still all over the place but starting to come together. We're certain to get at least a foot by the time it's over. But the potential still exists for four feet or more. Bring it, we'll take all the water we can get.

Big snow possible in a few days
Always a good idea to be prepared and hope the weather guessers are wrong again.
'Historic' potential with incoming snowstorm in Colorado, feet of snow possible
Snowmageddon 2021
Just in case, if anyone missed the Snowmageddon 2019 thread

Bring it on!
Good advice GG. We're seriously hoping for several big, historic level snowstorms over the next six weeks. It would be okay to get 6 feet like we had in when, 2003? when it buried the truck to the roof top. We cleared the driveway by hand shoveling 3 days before the state opened the highway. Now I have a snowthrower.
It's terribly shy on snowpack this year. I was scanning through photos I took in 2017 when we had three times the snow that we do now. And after the historic fires that forced us to evacuate last October, most all the mountain folk here want as much water we can get in the drainages before summer. Bring it on, we're ready.

Well, I listened to the news about the snow.
We got provisions from the store.
We filled the water containers.
We filled the gas tanks in the vehicles.
We checked the spare propane tanks.
Damn, I jinxed it all and the storm will move north now.
Bring it!!
More fun and games in the Land of Ice and Snow.

Had to Google Search
Peaceful Valley Campground is situated in a glacial valley, on the banks of the Middle Saint Vrain Creek at an elevation of 8,500 feet in northern Colorado.
The campground has some conifer trees with open grassy areas.
Yes, we're below the terminus of a glacial moraine that holds beaver ponds in a willow carr. Here, the river plunges in rocky cascades. It's in a vortex where snow dumps after crossing the Continental Divide. We typically get twice as much snow as 3 miles downstream.
2 different threads started a minute apart.. which one is going to prevail?
My weather app says 40 degrees for Saturday with 2-3 feet possible.. hmmm, we shall see.
