Anybody been up to Kenosha Pass/Como/Fairplay recently?

I'm going camping for a few days, leaving in 3 hours, and I'm gonna set up a few miles southwest of Kenosha Pass, give or take.
I'm hoping its thawed out by now but I'm expecting everything to still be covered in snow... I don't mind either way, but I can pack lighter if I have a better idea of what I'm packing for.
Anybody been up there recently and can tell me what the environmental conditions are?

I drove over Kenosha Pass last Wed. Didn't see a whole lotta snow then.

I camp in Pike National Forest/Kenosha pass, I have really never seen a ton of snow up there. Either way, let me know, I plan on going camping up there this weekend.

Tons of snow between Idaho Springs, Alice, and Central City though, as of last weekend.

It's fine we just came back through there. Go for it, have fun.

Thanks yall... had to leave before I could read the posts so I packed a little extra, but I checked the thread on the way up and at least knew what to expect

Took 285 all the way and didn't see any snow on the way up. Campsite was dry other than a few iced up snow drifts over the creek.
Lemme know when you head up there, apparently I'm going back on Wednesday... if you're still there when we get there we should get together and shoot stuff

First day we had ~30mph winds but they died down as night came and it was starting to get cloudy when we packed up and headed out, but for the most part it was sunny and warm.

Pics...





This was at ~60 yards, .30-30 Winchester 94 with irons from kneeling. 7 hits out of 9 shots, including the two that gouged the edge, with 3 hitting close enough to make one big hole. Proud of this one


My uncle with his S&W M&P 15. EOTech with the 5.56 reticle and flip-to-the-side 3x magnifier.
Fun gun.


Me shooting the AR




BTW, have some brass from the trip for sale...

My trip got delayed do to some family issues (taking care of my ill father). The trip has been set back until the weekend of the 17th. Anyway, looks like tons of fun and am really jealous now.

Thanks for letting me know. Any issues shooting up there? I never have, but was curious.
